A downloadable game


Feisty Fauna is a ridiculously cute survivors-like / bullet heaven with a storyline, where you're a mom rescuing her kidnapped chicks. You'll have to survive as you hunt other cute animals in this eat-or-be-eaten animal world. Meet other cute, diverse characters and learn their backstories and motivations!

You can visit the Steam page and join the free playtest. To do so, click "Request access" to the playtest and be instantly granted access to download and play the playtest build.

The playtest contains the last 3 levels of the campaign, so you will see spoilers to the story if you haven't played the earlier levels in the earlier playtests.

In the main menu, you should see Peppermint laying an explosive egg, and a fox getting blown up.


When you load a game (the new game button should be disabled), instead of being asked about whether to play or skip the tutorial, Ginger will welcome you back from your adventure, as shown below.

If you see Cocoa asking you whether or not to play the tutorial, that means you're in the demo (which is not the Feedback Quest version), and you'll need to switch to the playtest in Steam.

Here are some of the new features since the last Feedback Quest:

  • The campaign is complete, and the last 3 levels of the campaign are accessible in this playtest.
  • There are 2 new biomes: Fungi Fields and Wintry Woods, with unique fauna in each biome.
  • There are new status effects, such as being poisoned or chilled.
  • Some fauna are immune to damage until you receive a certain buff (explained in the campaign as you play).
  • There are now puzzles in the game! One puzzle is mandatory to proceed in the story, and the others are optional (you can choose a path that skips puzzles).
  • The main menu now shows a little animation of Peppermint laying an explosive egg and a fox getting blown up by it.
  • At the end of the campaign, there is an epilogue with some animations to wrap up the story.

Please try out the playtest, and let us know what you think!

Feisty Fauna is in active development, so bugs probably do exist. We are very keen to hear about any bugs that you encounter, so do let us know.

Kindly wishlist the game on Steam!

I played the game in the first day of streaming on my channel. Here my feedback of 60 minutes: 

-Art: 9/10 I found cute the design of animals, the forest design, in general was good.

-Soundtrack: 9/10, I felt excited running away from the obstacles (I won't say anything due of spoilers hehe)

-Writting: 10/10, The story is original, engaging at first, characters with a good humor. I didn't feel something out of place or something unnecessarily long with the writing. It's fine as it.

-UI: 8/10 The UI is simple, and very intuitive to use in the game (main menu) and where you choose the different stages.

-Gameplay and buttons: 8/10 Maybe at first I felt a little weird to play and move the camera, but with the time you get used how to use the key arrows and the mouse to move around the map and to select options.

I really enjoyed the game, please ^^ continue developing this game, I think it has potential.

Thanks for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

This game is JUST SO FUN! The dialogue is funny, the character design is adorable, and the gameplay is pure mayhem! Drop egg-sploding eggs, blast enemies with cotton candy, turn your butt into a flamethrower, and solve the mystery of the missing animals!  This isn't just a horde survival game. There's story and objectives that keep you engaged. AND POSSUMS!!!!

We wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone who likes fun. And if you don't like fun? 

Well.... SUCK EGGS, FOOLS!!!!

Hope you don't mind me posting this lets play here I just thought I'd throw this out here in case anyone else was interested in seeing the game play and super cute story from POV of a fellow momdev

also this video is from earlier version so some fixes may be made since!

Thanks for playing! Sorry, I forgot to reply to this post till now, I'm glad you enjoyed the story and gameplay! We changed the camera a bit during the dodge so hopefully it feels better now.

We've also just re-opened our playtest with a new build, featuring skill combos, unlimited levels, and a new minigame! Please feel free to try it out!

Had a superb time in here. I enjoy games in which I can earn my way to becoming completely overpowered, and this does a good job at triggering that satisfaction if you stick to it long enough.
