Everything is Crab is a new pixel art roguelike from developer Odd Dreams Digital and publisher Secret Mode, due for release on Steam in 2026. A new trailer announces that the cutesy creature evolution game is currently under playtest, with players encouraged to take part. In Everything is Crab, players must adapt and survive in the animal kingdom. They’ll hunt, battle giant enemy bosses, and evolve their amorphous blob into one of 100+ mutations based on real-life animals, in Spore meets Vampire Survivor style gameplay.

Player’s creatures will emerge from the mud as an amorphous blob and avoid deadly predators before sidling up crabwise and pinching a creature’s lifeforce, or ghost the animals and stick to plants if they prefer a peaceful approach. Add weird and wonderful evolutions to their creature and escape carcinisation, with over 100 evolutions based on real-life animals combining to create a complex chimera of a character.

Everything is Crab’s world is a living ecosystem, with a day and night cycle and a range of biomes from arctic snow to the red rock desert. Watch out for giant enemy bosses and dodge their attacks while you wait for an opening, before nipping away at their health bar while chitin around them. Adapt and survive in these harsh conditions or face terrible consequences, like being killed.
