What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Fech The Ferret is an unusually ambitious open world platformer where the goal is to give an experience similar to playing in a big park as a kid, a lively place filled with random things to do. Due to the small size of the team, it takes us a long time to reach that goal.
Being in Early Access makes it possible to improve and refine the game, as well as keep ourselves open for community feedback.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Until the end of 2024.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“More zones, new rhythmic levels, more cutscenes and activities. Some visuals will also get refined.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“At the time of writing - January 2024 - the available contents are:
- 60% of the game world
- All of the core gameplay
- The first half of the story
- Few extra activities”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price of the game will rise only if we exceed our own expectations.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Our Discord server and the Steam forums are the main ways to give us feedback. During the past 5 years the Discord community has been fundamental to give discuss the vision of the project, sometimes leading changes in the game.”

About This Game


Fech The Ferret is a fast and loud parkour platformer where the faster you go, the better music gets.

The game offers:

  • High speed racing-like platforming
  • A small open world to explore (4 zones for now)
  • Parkour and rolling to take advantage of the world design
  • Shared world online play. Meet friends online
  • Collectible clothes to wear and show off
  • Collectible comic strips
  • Optional rhythmic levels
  • A few cutscenes and minigames
  • A cute pink ferret as a protagonist

In this game you get to play as Fech, our pink ferret protagonist, on his first adventure in the region of Marmocle.
Run through an open world and meet quirky animals as you slowly uncover what lies behind the mishaps happening in Marmocle.



Fech The Ferret is a game made for both people who enjoy high speed platforming and players who prefer to enjoy a lush colourful world at their own pace.
Players are free to try reach the end of each zone as quickly as possible making use of Fech's climbing and rolling abilities, or they may take the time to slowly explore the place to collect clothes and comics scattered around the world as well as talk to the various NPCs.
Spread throughout the world you will also find special "ara" levels, these are rhythmic challenges where Fech has to jump and avoid obstacles to the rhythm of the music.


The story starts as Fech wakes up in a strange forest. He hasn't gotten to Marmocle by accident, but he knows barely anything about this land. Unsure on where to go he heads to a pointy structure outside of the forest, away from the dangers of the forest. Soon he gets to meet a strange bird.



The game also features an shared world online mode. Meet with your friends and have some chaotic fun!
