About Hatched
Hatched is an evolution roguelite where every creature is different. You run, fight and eat your way up the food chain, and every boss you beat gives you your next evolution.
Each evolution adds a new ability and a new body part: horns, wings, legs, arms, extra eyes, fireballs, quills, whirlpools, brambles, even fart clouds. Bones from defeated enemies upgrade those abilities with effects like piercing, chaining and bigger areas. With more than 100 abilities and run-changing relics, plus elements to pick and exploit, each 20-minute run builds a different animal. The solo developer uses inverse kinematics and shaders so the creatures move properly whatever shape they end up.
Sublime Orange is making it for Windows, Mac and Linux, due early in 2027. There's a free demo you can play in the browser on itch.io.
