About the Game

Island Fever is a sandbox survival game set in a procedurally generated archipelago.

The world in Island Fever isn't very spacious, and the islands are separated by the sea, that can't be traversed without a raft and food supplies.

You start with nothing but pebbles and crude tools, slowly working your way toward faster and more sophisticated equipment that will allow you to transform your island into a thriving fortress.

The cartoony pixel-art style contrasts with a semi-realistic (but simple) survival system focused on resource gathering, food, and progress.

  • Build and expand your fortress

  • Secure food

  • Endure the harsh weather

Instead of overwhelming you with endless mechanics, the game gradually introduces new tools and possibilities until you finally conquer the islands.
