Carcinisatan

"Carcinisation" describes a form of convergent evolution in which all non-crab organisms eventually evolve a crab-like body plan. This evolution need not take millennia - help it along by collecting crab body parts and inaugurate yourself into the Church of Crab, while you still can.

A five-day game jam, made at Spelkollektivet. The theme was 'multi-purpose' and our inspiration song was Dead Crab Exoskeleton.

For the best experience, download and play the Windows build.
