Explovival – not just another survival

Paws & Circuits is a cozy eco-survival game about a wounded raccoon, his drone buddy, and a trash-covered 4×4 km island. Clean up human leftovers, recycle resources, and gather seasonal plants to survive changing weather and four distinct seasons – without loot grind or stress survival.

Live with the seasons, not against them.

Food doesn’t just respawn – it follows the year:

• Strawberries start as blossoms in spring and only turn into juicy fruit in summer.

• Carrots grow through summer and can be pulled from the ground in autumn and early winter.

• Other plants, mushrooms, herbs and berries have their own short seasons – miss the window, miss the meal.

Play by senses, not by bars

You don’t stare at HUD bars – you play by what you see and hear:

• Your stomach growls when you’re hungry.

• Your movement gets heavy when you’re injured.

• You slow down and start looking for water when you’re thirsty.

When you need exact numbers, you call your drone. It brings up a HUD on demand – when you’re done, the UI fades and the world fills the screen again.

Core Features

• New sub-genre “Explovival” – focused, cozy survival without loot and dopamine spam.

• Buddy drone with a smart task system: scan, mark, clean up, and carry trash.

• Cleaning trash = visible island progress – the more you recycle, the more the island changes.

• Weather, time of day, and four seasons with seasonal plants and food.

• Hand-crafted 4×4 km island: beach, forest, volcano, dynamic weather.

• Minimalist UI – HUD only appears when you call your drone.

• Optional hardcore mode (1 in-game day ≈ 24 minutes, permadeath, gravestone save, later leaderboard).

• Singleplayer first; co-op planned depending on community feedback.

• Early-supporter bonus: playable red panda variant.

Công bố về nội dung tạo bởi AI

Nhà phát triển mô tả cách trò chơi của họ dùng nội dung sáng tạo bởi AI như sau:

AI usage (development & marketing only).
Paws & Circuits: Reboot Earth does not generate content live in-game and does not accept user prompts or inputs. During development, generative AI was used as a supportive tool (e.g., for concept iteration, text drafts, a few placeholder voice lines, and select marketing assets and occasional placeholder textures). All outputs were manually reviewed, edited, and curated. The shipped content is static, non-interactive, and contains no live AI and no user-generated content.
If any assets are flagged via Steam’s reporting tools, they will be removed or replaced promptly. Over time, placeholders will be gradually replaced with hand-crafted assets.

Content notice: Themes of environmental pollution/cleanup and survival (possible death by cold/starvation). No combat, no graphic violence.
