What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“To gather real feedback during development and make sure the game evolves alongside the community.
”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We don’t have a fixed timeline yet, but we expect to stay in Early Access for several months as we shape the game with community feedback.”

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

“The current version is an early demo that showcases just a small part of the full project. Crabs and Rats is in active development, and we’re adding new content over time based on player feedback.

Future content:

The final version of Crabs and Rats will include 7 unique bosses

Capacity for 2-player remote co-op

Complete Spanish translation

A few extra surprises we can’t wait to reveal”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Crabs and Rats is in an early stage of development. The current version includes limited content: A single boss, two events, one level, and local co-op for two players.
The final game will expand on this foundation with power-ups, gameplay customization, and many more levels.”

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

“The game will be completely free while it's in development. However, once it's finished, it will be priced according to the standard for its genre.
In short, before the final release, the game will cost nothing — after the official launch, it will have a moderate price.”

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

“We plan to actively involve the community through TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), and we'll be paying close attention to Steam reviews to guide the game’s development. Your feedback will help shape Crabs and Rats into the best version it can be.

"Contextualize in Aghrrr"

148X - On a stormy night at sea, Boris, a half-hearted pirate, lies drowsy in his bunk, plagued by a sharp stomachache. As he writhes in discomfort, he tumbles across the floor of his cabin, tormented by hallucinations brought on by malnutrition, vitamin deficiency, and the relentless rocking of the ship. In his delirium, Boris faces a terrifying vision. Now, he must fight for his life and find a way to escape this nightmare… or perish.

Crabs and Rats is a 2D platformer with a Pixel Art and Cartoon style, set in a chaotic pirate world. Inspired by the vertical slider format, the game challenges players to dodge obstacles, avoid deadly traps, and escape from white rats and massive green crabs, all while trying not to fall into the abyss.

Designed for two-player local co-op, the game puts your reflexes and coordination to the test as you navigate through collapsing wooden platforms, fast-paced levels, and unpredictable hazards.
