Food Chain

Food Chain is a survival game in which you control an animal in a struggle for water. Animals have individual characteristics, including mass, speed, manoeuvrability, damage, skin thickness, absorb and dry. Battles take place on land, in water and in the air.

Fight for water

Water activates regeneration and prevents death from thirst. You can keep your distance, but drought is inevitable and eventually forces players into a risky confrontation over the remaining water. Put your animal’s head in water to drink, and use its claws, jaws, hooves, horns or beak to fight for the last supply.

Animals and simulation

Fourteen species are available: bear, boar, crocodile, crow, deer, eagle, elephant, fox, goat, owl, hippopotamus, lion, rhinoceros and wolf. Their numbers are limited to what the game considers reasonable. The game does not promise active additions of new animals, though they may become part of a season cycle in the future.

The game simulates complex skeletons with sensitive synchronization. When a body part collides with an obstacle, its proximity to the animal’s center of gravity affects movement. Sounds are produced through physical interactions, and more surfaces may be added.

Planned possibilities

The animal simulation is being considered as a basis for a potential single-player mode where you could create battles by controlling animal behaviours. Detailed species statistics, player ratings, statistics and graphs may also become available after enough data has been collected.
