Take control of a cute naughty gremlin and do the bidding of your loving mechanical Mother!
Team up with friends to climb and jump through a physics-based world full of emergent surprises. Explore the ever-changing caves of a mysterious alien planet, complete objectives together, and use everything at your disposal to survive the run.
MAYHEM WITH FRIENDS
Experience unique moments with friends. Form a team of up to 4 players online or grab a friend for 2-player local split-screen.
Combine your group's abilities and overcome tricky obstacles: explore, evolve, adapt. There is never one single solution.
Hungry for more? Mother always has missions for you and your friends to complete - just make sure to come back in one piece!
EXPLORE ALIEN CAVES
Explore the endlessly replayable cave network of a mysterious alien planet, full of biodiversity and peculiar life-forms. Flora or Fauna, creatively utilize everything to your advantage, and when in doubt - EAT IT!
Sharpen your claws and climb everywhere - walls and ceilings included.
But even the most adept creatures will need some creative thinking to explore everything the caves have to offer - unleash your inner chaos gremlin!
CUSTOMIZE YOUR CHAOS
Complete missions and unlock new unique mutations. Extend your gameplay options and change up your playstyle for future runs.
Fart your way out of caves into safety, barf up projectiles to throw at foes (and friends) or use your rock skin fart to shield yourself and your friends from danger.
Unlock a range of patterns, colours, ears and more to customize your look. Create your unique little creature, ready to cause chaos and do Mother's bidding.
