Octofox Games release Wild Woods in Early Access

Funded by Gamecity Hamburg, the Coop-Adventure game Wild Woods by Octofox Games goes into Early Access on Steam published by Daedalic Entertainment on December 9, 2024.

On December 9, 2024, the wonderful Coop-Adventure game Wild Woods by Octofox Games, published by Daedalic Entertainment, goes into Early Access on Steam.

Hamburg-based studio Octofox Games was one of the first to receive the relaunched Prototype Funding from Gamecity Hamburg in 2020 and scooped the Best Newcomer Student Award at the German Developer Award in 2019.

Octofox Games have come a long way as former students from the HAW Hamburg up to finally releasing their game, and we are happy that they can present to everyone what they have been working on for quite some time.

The Gameplay

You can play as up to four cats to defend your cart in the "Wild Woods".

The wholesome couch- and online co-op game takes you into a whimsical forest as you play as up to four heroic cats who must protect their cart from dangerous thieves. Only while working together can they overcome the threats and dangers, as day and night cycles offer different challenges for the players.

The game is planned for a full 1.0 version release in 2025/2026, and will offer more biomes, gameplay elements, and updates.

You can already check out the Early Access version on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1975580/Wild_Woods/

Congratulations to the whole team! We're looking forward to exploring the Wild Woods some more!
