Steam Next Fest is live!
fiftyfive development OHG
Steam Next Fest has started, and Bugs & Birdies is part of it! From October 19 to 26 you can play our free demo, and it is not a small slice: the whole island world is open.
- Build a home together, farm your fields and keep your chickens happy
- Fish from the dock by day and by night, and keep a fish book of every catch
- Spin the Wheel of Fate every morning: a storm, an earthquake or a giant worm might be waiting
- Dive into dungeons, beat bosses like the Fiddle Beetle and find legendary gear
- Fly across the islands on your falcon, bounce on the trampoline, relax in the hot tub
- Play online co-op with up to four friends
New in the demo: the Pumpkin Night Our Halloween event is here. Pumpkin beetles hide between the pumpkins, ghost beetles drift over the graveyard, and on one special night the Pumpkin King rises. Trade candy with the frogs, brew potions in the witch's cauldron and fly through the night on a witch's broom.
Your progress carries over to the full game, so nothing you build in the demo is lost.
Tell us what you think! Next Fest is the best moment for your feedback. Please share it in the feedback channel on our Discord, we read everything. And if you enjoy the demo, add Bugs & Birdies to your wishlist so you know the moment the full game is out.
See you on the island!
