Exciting times for the Hangryverse! We’re over the moon to announce our recent grant success, enabling us to incorporate innovative charitable gaming mechanics into our ecosystem. This funding fuels our mission to seamlessly integrate giving into gaming, creating experiences where players can actively support real-world causes as they play.
Imagine earning in-game rewards that translate into tangible donations or powering up your favorite Hangry Animal while feeding someone in need. It’s a game-changer—literally—and we’re so proud to take this vision forward. Our work starts in earnest in Feb 2025, so stay tuned for more.
After a short hiatus, we’re back in full force across social media. We’re bringing the Hangry Animals story to life from development updates to sneak peeks. Our 30 Days of Dev series with Thirdweb was fruitful, offering a behind-the-scenes look at the trials, triumphs, and quirky moments of building games that feel meaningful and fun in and out of web3. We could do with your help with some more engagement in 2025, but we know you need the content to do so.. We’re on it.
We’re proud to announce the successful registration of a second trademark for Hangry Animals in the US. This milestone strengthens our foundation as we expand our projects and bring more unique characters and stories to life. The future is bright, and it’s secured by the Hangry name in both entertainment and gaming.
Development of our Ship-A-Thon race mode has been in high gear in December. This sprint was all about nailing the fundamentals of a game loop: collisions, speed mechanics, and movement transitions. Our focus is on making the modes of transport and physics feel smooth and responsive, whether you’re starting from a standstill or drifting at full speed.
Key features in progress:
Dynamic Movement: Seamless state transitions from standing to pedaling and accelerating to full-speed drift.
Action Mechanics: Jumping, kicking, punching, and, yes, mid-air spins for that extra flair and points accumulation.
Enemies Chaos: Relentless bug enemies chasing you down while you race against the clock.
Soon, we’ll unveil a timed course for the community to test and provide feedback. We’re building something simple yet addictive—a perfect appetizer for the grand Hangryverse adventure to be built out.
November and December have been all about embracing the process of building smaller, hyper-casual games as a stepping stone toward our ultimate interconnected vision. This journey isn’t about rushing to create the next big thing. It’s about crafting experiences that are fun, impactful, and aligned with our mission.
Working with Press Start Capital and leveraging insights from Thirdweb has been transformative, helping us focus on the foundations. As we ship, iterate, and refine, we’re creating a universe of games that introduces players to the Hangry Animals world in meaningful ways.
The Hangryverse isn’t just a series of games; it’s a platform for creativity, impact, and fun. With every update, character reveals, and mechanic we build, we’re laying the groundwork for something special.
From the dedicated work of our developers and partners to the passionate feedback of our community, this journey is a shared adventure. Thank you for being part of it.
Here’s to the exciting months and years ahead—see you on the trails, in the stars, and wherever the Hangry Animals take us next!
Stay Hangry,
