About the Game

Survive the Economic Collapse

Egg-Flation is a top-down survivor game set in a pre-post-apocalyptic farm economy. You control a hardened chicken, fighting through procedural waves of economic absurdity to defeat the Corporate Wolf.


Key Features:

  • Branching Route Map: Navigate a procedurally generated 9-node path per run. Choose between standard battles, elite encounters, traders, campfires, treasure events, and mystery nodes.

  • Automated Arsenal: Equip and auto-fire up to six weapons simultaneously, including the egg_shot, egg_shotgun, egg_mine, unstable_feathers, and chaos_squack. Collect Egg Cartons during combat to expand your loadout.

  • Card-Based Leveling: Collect corn from defeated enemies to gain experience. Select from three stat cards per level up across six rarities, utilizing reroll mechanics to optimize your build.

  • Tactical Movement & DDA: Execute invincible dashes and jump over obstacles. The engine utilizes Dynamic Difficulty Adjustment to scale enemy flock intensity based on real-time performance metrics.

  • The Market: Spend Ecto-Eggs earned across runs to purchase permanent stat upgrades, unlock new weapons, and research enemy weaknesses.

  • Hostile Economy: Survive massive flocks of the Bird Flu Virus, evade charging Supply-Chain Boars, and confront the final Corporate Wolf boss.
