Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“This game started as an idea from my 8-year-old son, and I am currently the sole developer. The core game is already playable, but I believe it will become much better with real player feedback during development.

Early Access allows me to involve the community while I continue building the game. I want feedback on the pacing, balance, maps, bots, lobby size, family-friendly gameplay, and which features players would most like to see next. My goal is to make a fun, accessible multiplayer hide-and-seek game that families, friends, streamers and casual players can enjoy together.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“My current goal is to keep the game in Early Access until around Q4 2026, but this may change depending on player feedback, development progress, and the scope of features added during Early Access.

I want to take the time needed to improve the game properly rather than rush the full release.”

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

“The full version is planned to build on the Early Access version with more content, polish, and player-requested improvements.

Planned additions may include more levels, more characters, improved bots, additional game modes, better balancing, larger lobby support, UI improvements, and general quality-of-life updates. The exact scope will depend on community feedback and what proves to be the most fun for players.

The goal is for the full version to feel more complete, polished, and varied while keeping the same family-friendly multiplayer hide-and-seek experience at its core.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The Early Access version is fully playable and currently supports up to 10 players. Players can play solo against bots, with friends, or with a mix of bots and human players.

The main gameplay loop is in place, including hiding, seeking, and multiplayer matches. The game has been tested and is already playable, but players may still encounter occasional bugs, balance issues, or rough edges as development continues.

At this stage, the game is suitable for players who want to help shape the experience while enjoying an early version of a family-friendly multiplayer hide-and-seek game.”

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

“The game will be available at a lower Early Access price while it is still in development.

The price may increase when the game leaves Early Access, especially as more content, features, and polish are added. Any pricing changes will reflect the state and amount of content in the game at that time.”

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

“Community feedback will be an important part of development. Players will be able to share feedback, report bugs, suggest features, and discuss the game with me through the official Discord server.

I am especially interested in feedback about map design, match pacing, bot behavior, balance, lobby size, family-friendly gameplay, and which features players want most. Since I am the sole developer, community input will help me decide what to prioritize and improve as the game grows.”

About This Game

Hide and Shoot is a chaotic multiplayer hide-and-seek party game where up to 10 players go head-to-head as shapeshifting prey and bow-wielding hunters across colorful nature biomes. With quick, replayable rounds and plenty of clip-worthy moments, it’s perfect for game-night rotations with friends, streamer lobbies, and casual stream sessions.


Hunters vs. Prey

Each round, one or two players become Hunters armed with bows. Everyone else becomes Prey, and survival means blending in, staying calm, and escaping before it is too late.

Prey can shapeshift into cows, deer, sheep, and shrubbery to hide among the world around them. But be careful: shapeshifting drains energy, and hunters are always watching for anything that looks suspicious.


Outsmart, Outrun, Escape

Stay hidden long enough and an escape portal will spawn. Reach it to win. Get caught by the hunter, and you are out.

As Prey, you have plenty of tricks to survive:

  • Shapeshift into animals and bushes to hide in plain sight

  • Slide into cover to escape faster or trick the hunter

  • Dodge out of arrow fire with a quick double-tap

  • Use movement, timing, and fake-outs to make the hunter miss

  • Nervous Stomach — the closer the hunter gets, the more your stomach churns. Hold it in, or let it rip for a fart-powered launch into the sky

  • Choose from 100 character skins to stand out or blend in

Hunt with Precision

Hunters move faster, track suspicious movement, and can activate a speed boost to chase down fleeing prey. They can also plant proximity devices that detect nearby prey and slow them down, making escape much harder.

Line up your shots carefully. Arrows have real physics, with travel time and arc, so every hit takes skill.
