About the Game

Ferret Quest

In a woodland world where nothing is quite what it seems, one tiny hero must rise…

Ferret Quest is a charming, hand-drawn action adventure created for Global Game Jam (Theme: Masks). Step into the paws of an adorable but fearless ferret armed with the mightiest weapon of the forest — acorns.

But beware… the other woodland creatures may be hiding more than just fluffy faces.

Acorn-Slinging Action

Hurl acorns at mischievous masked animals as you dodge, weave, and outsmart your way through increasingly challenging levels. Timing and positioning are key — even the cutest hero needs sharp reflexes!

A World of Masks

The forest is full of strange critters wearing mysterious masks. Are they friend? Foe? Something else? Uncover the secrets hidden behind their disguises as you progress.

Beautiful Hand-Drawn Animation

Every character is lovingly illustrated and brought to life with a puppeted animation style that makes the whole forest feel like a living storybook.

Features

  • Multiple challenge levels with increasing difficulty

  • A climactic boss fight

  • Adorable woodland enemies

  • Smooth 2D puppeted animation

  • Cozy, cute-but-chaotic forest vibes

Cute. Chaotic. A little nutty.

Can one small ferret save the forest — one acorn at a time?
