Multi Crab Update!

Your hermit crab doesn’t have to be alone anymore.

This update adds multi-crab support. More shells to swap, more tiny adventures, more crab energy. I rebuilt the core systems to give your crabs some company. Take care of multiple hermit crabs in this new update.

This is a foundation update that sets the game up for much bigger growth. Before this update, all gameplay was limited to a single crab. Multi-crab support opens the game up to more possibilities and a better overall experience. Now that this update is out, you can expect more regular content updates and continued refinement of current features.

Plans for the future include

• Improved building mechanics

• Backyard adventure quests

• More types of shells

• More intricate tank designs and more options overall

• Increased complexity in the crabs’ AI

• Two more exploration levels

• Crab diet effects

• More training mechanics for your crab

• Room customization and unlocks

• More achievements

• Inventory updates and new items

• Afterlife options

• Possible multiplayer aspects, like a park where you can hang out with other crabs

This update adds

• Multi-crab ownership

• Crabs can now swim

• Changes to food mechanics

• New tank designs and options

• Level-based unlock restrictions for tanks

• New unlockable shell skins

• Crabs now pick their own shells. If they don’t have a shell, they’ll pick one after a nap

• Crabs now visibly sleep

• Crabs now change size depending on age

• New user interface

• New main menu

• Many more smaller changes as a result of the updates above

Thank you for your support in the early days of Crabs. I’m excited to keep growing Crabs with you, and I can’t wait to see where we are in a year. If you have feedback, feature requests, or find a bug, feel free to join the Discord to stay up to date and share your thoughts.

Get Crabs, Take Responsibility
