Eggular Game
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Story
In this game you are an egg and you need to find a ridiculous amount of ham. Explore the strange world, encounter the bizarre inhabitants, dodge pizza, summon hippos and explore everywhere to find all the hams! Be sure to be thorough and get home in time for dinner with the King! You don't want to disappoint him...
Details
This game could be considered an egglike shitpost but, its hopefully at least a fun one!
From start to finish the game can take up to 2 hours to see everything. There are currently two normal endings and one secret ending!
The game is mostly first person but there are 3rd person "rolling ball" style bonus levels to find!
Please note that the game autosaves after you collect a ham! You can clear your save from the ESC menu.
Controls:
WASD - Move
F - Interact
Mouse - Look

10/10 Loved it.
Amazing fantastic perfect
Dearest Scrib
Your game is a very good. It made me think thoughs such as "wow", "woah", "what the heck" and many more. I even showed it to a friend who has never seen egg game and it was very eggxciting and well liked.
I particularily like the metroidvania structure with a good combo of big open areas, shortcuts, hidden gems and worlds within worlds within worlds..
There are so many secrets and almost all of them evoke something, they tingle the lizard brain in a way few games do. There are some parts that feel a little too "derivative" but even these are cleverly done so it doesn't really hurt the experience. Other parts are truly original and unique and beautiful (sometimes horrifying)
I must say I was not a fan of the platforming because the controls are very loosey goosey and not refined. I did also skip all the "roll" challenges because I am bad. But overall very good yes 10/10
Thank you Badger friend, your kind words warm my soul, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Hello Mr. Scribman, I am currently enjoying you're game immensely. Although, while exploring almost every Nook and Cranny, I have various questions.
1. In the area with the question mark pyramid, aside from that and the one ham up top, is there anything else there? I have a feeling there might ;)
2. Is the snow island accessible
3. Is the farmhouse above "Cheeseland" reachable?
4. Across from the Swamp tree, there are huts. How do I get to them. Are the other islands near the sheep head accessible. I was able to get to the one with the keygen. But I'm wondering if I can access the others. I remember Vinny randomly accessed one, I believe through the wizard. But now he teleportz you to a specific place rather than randomly. Might be a me problem though.
5. Is there actually another Korok? I could only find the one near the fish n chips house and the other near the flowers. The egg there mentions a third, but I never found him. I got the achievement though when I respawned and found the same two again.
6. I think I obtained 3 or 4 achievements, but there are 8. Any hints?
7. Found Cookie ending and King eats me ending. But there is another one? How? Is it super hidden, or related to my Keygen or Ham count?
8. Is there a way to reach the pavilion on the elevated island directly next the the second island (near the Tubby custard).
9. Any other secrets I should know about?
Thank you for your time Scrib. Hope this reaches you well.
Hallo Lord Cambernon!
I'm glad you have been enjoying my game! :D
Many questions here, I'll do my best to answer them!
1 & 2. There is indeed, its related to your second question actually. It is also one of the missing achievements you're looking for.
3. Unfortunately not, there isn't a lot to see either. Its the farmhouse in Moo Moo Farm in MK64 though!
4. The huts are accessible, another achievement as well. I'd suggest looking carefully in that area. Try to avoid the beavers though... They aren't very friendly. The Scuttlebug island is accessible through the wizard, not sure why the wizard would only teleport you to once place though?
5. There is! They like the houses a lot but don't want to get too close, try checking outside the third one.
6. There is one I highly doubt you'll find. It is called "It's a secret to everyone", super secret achievement. The others shouldn't be too difficult though! Try finding my egg on the second island and talking to me. That is another achievement!
7. One ending only unlocks after collecting more than 75 hams, it is the only way to curb the king's appetite!
8. That would be telling ;)
9. The one where you can find my avatar is one, there are others if you look carefully. My favourite is if you stand in a spot for a while... another is if you clip out of bounds and enter a place with a friendly frog among not so friendly clowns.
Hope this helps! All the best, Scrib🥚
Thanks alot Dude! Really appreciate it! Best on your future game endeavors! Also excited to play the Halloween one next year. Played the alpha and it was pretty good! Ps. didn't know you could no-clip, hmm.
Edit: Playing through again, and double searching everything (wizard works btw, I'm just dumb). Might have more questions later.
Alright, so. New Questions! Ask whenever you're available (Or don't, don't wanna bother ya too much man).
1. I didn't know the "V" button respawned me/regenerated the world. When this happens a "Teleporter" (I think?) appears near the entrance to the caves. Significance?
2. Can you get on the ship?
3. The floating and singing yellow orb that passes sometimes. What is it?
4. The boxes (specifically the humming tan one) on the Clown's island. Anything special with them (aside from the one's reference.
5. Purple monster dudes. What are they? And do they do anything?
6. Is there a way to get back to the first island from the second? In case I missed thing.
7. How many Keygens are there? I know atleast 6.
8. Are there more than 3 trials?
9. Is the cookie ending the actual secret ending. Or is there a real secret ending?
10. Is there a point to the dwarf lab?
11. Any way to get past the rat bouncers?
12. The meteor on the second Island, what it do?
13. Is there a way to get into the pigs pen?
14. Any way to meet the Mama Luigi?
15. Red ball in question mark pyramid?
16. Anything near Drillman?
17. Is there a way to actually buy the dev kit? Or am I getting punked by Ashton Kutcher?
18. The hole in the sky in.... well The Sky. Way to get in there?
19. Anything with The Hands in "The Sky".
20. The bottle in "The Sky", what it do?
21. Can I get past Kirby?
22. Flamingos?
23. Blue Sheep?
24. The invisible puzzle piece, meme?
25. Does the chat room or auditorium have anything important?
26. The colorful orbs in the sky on the second island, significance?
27. Egg-ship at spawn of island 2?
28. Anything in the vaporwave orb of interest?
29. What do those poles that come out of the ground on Island 2 do?
30. The Question Mark House Room.....what???
Now after finishing it for a second time. With regards to the previous questions.
6&9. Couldn't find ya. Hints?
8. .......please?
Other slightly related/unrelated questions:
1. How you doin'?
2. Been working at a grocery store and we've been putting out winter hams. Now all I think of is the ham sound effect when I see one XD
3. Is the Halloween one the official sequel, and if not will there be one?
4. Any other projects in the works?
5. Still working on this one?
6. Lots of secrets in Halloween one?
Sorry for some many questions once again. I'm just in love with this game right now. Amazing work dude! Keep up the good work! And best with your other endeavors in the future!
Wow! Let's break these down
1. It's related to a project I am working on with a friend. It isn't out yet.
2. Nope, only there for King slander purposes
3. That is the spacetown orb! It's from my first game called "Scrib's Adventure"... I would recommend it but it isn't my best work
4. The humming one has a chance to send you to the clownrooms. The other bamboo one is just there to taunt you.
5. They just like to watch. Apparently they have names
6. Nope, you break the bridge on your way over. Shoddy craftsmanship if you ask me. (There will be in the last v2.0 update!)
7. there are 6!
8. nope
9.Nope the cookie ending is the secret one, other than the true end for 75 hams
10. Nope, let him cook 😎
11. Yes, but it is very difficult
12. The crashed spacetown orb? Nothing, it crashed
13. No, that would be stealing
14. Sort of, if you find the way out of bounds
15. Red
16. Gutsman
17. If only there were enough keygens...
18. Something might fall out, careful with that one. It's one way.
19. They give you a big hand!
20. Sky water, don't drink this...
21. Yeah if you jump a lot. He doesn't like that very much though.
22. Flamingo! They have a nice pond. Best spot to sit, relax and do nothing for a bit if you ask me.
23. Blue sheep? He is purple? Some say he has a magic portal in his mouth.
24. meme
25. Hidden wall? Yep, I think so
26. They are refrigerated for your convenience
27. It came from outer yolk! Nah it's a hot dog squid actually. Made of Chrome!
28. The marble? There is a ham in there
29. Speen!
30. Glitched
Aha, more questions!
My cube appears on the second island. V should probably do the trick.
No...?
1. Thanks for asking! I feel pretty egg shaped
2. Try replacing your brain ram. Sounds like it's borked
3. It's the sequel for now. If there is gonna be more of Eggular it would probably be something different.
4. Right now I'm working on Nyt-Net! The update is due by January at the latest. Then I'm working on the final update to Quantum Origination!
5. Yes, it's on hold for now though. Update probably after I'm done with QO
6. When it's done yeah! Not just now though
Once again, thanks sooo much man! Now I'll stop bothering with you and let you get back to you're things. Take it easy man, and may good fortune follow you!
No problemo friend! I hope my answers were helpful. Hope you're doing well and all the best!
This game is so silly and i love it!!!
played it for a vid (starts at 8.00) and had a blast and even had to go back to it on my own time :3
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you liked it, I was sad you didn't get to the second island. It gets pretty wacky!
this game is unironically great
Thanks for playing and the wonderful feedback! I'll see about updating the dialogue boxes with the next housekeeping update :D
THIS GAME IS FUCKING AWESOME!
has any body else found the secret out of bounds deadly clown area
Henlo Scrib!
Just wanna say I love this project and love that you're still dedicated to it. very cool!
I really like all the random secrets that can pop up when refreshing the world, and the spooky glitch version of Porcelain House is very spooky. this game is a gem and playing it makes me warm and fuzzy inside.
hey scrib! I'm trying to play on a Mac (m1 chip, in case that changes anything), but the game doesn't seem to run. if I attempt to open it, it states that "The application 'Eggular Game v0.9.9.M.app' can't be opened." Is there any fix for this, or any way that you know of to run the game on Mac?
Thank you so much for your time.
Hey! Sorry about the issues, you might need to open a terminal and give the program permission to run. You can do that by navigating to the location and running the command, remove the brackets! (chmod +x Eggular Game v0.9.9.M/Eggular Game v0.9.9.M.app/Contents/MacOS/'Eggular Game v0.9.9.M')
Need to do this because I'm not a recognised developer for IOS devices. I don't have any IOS devices :S I hope this helps! Enjoy the game!
Yo Scrib!
Are there plans for controller support so people can play this on their Steam Decks?
also idk if there is already support for controllers.
Should be compatible, just need to configure the controls, if its the same GUI as the Steam Controllers? I have no idea how to set it up to work natively without testing unfortunately. I am pretty sure you can remap controls to the joystick and keys to the buttons tho?
By looking just about everywhere I found a grand total of 75 hams and got the good ending, are there any more hams to find or did I get them all?
There should be around 80 hams total. Some you can only find by chance though
Great new version. I love easter eggs and secrets so this is my kinda jam.
Alright 1 more VERY small nitpick: I feel like the cheese pun Egg friend should still say "I hate this place. Theres nothing gouda 'bout it" before "Another cheese pun? You better brie-lieve it!". I promise that's the last thing...probably. I think.
Oh yeah about the part of Binny's stream where he got warped around, I think I had the same thing happen with a smiling ball rolling around the marble. I assumed it was just a random event, is it not?
And I promise that is 100% my last petty nitpick 4 real this time. This game is very cool and I would love to see more like it. :)
Well I'm working on one more small hotfix before I'm done until I can somehow introduce saving to this monster. I don't know how to fix the warping issue as yeah, I think the balls escape confinement before the door is blasted open... Either way, expect the hotfix tonight. As for your nitpick, don't worry. There will be more weird games on the way soon!
Honestly I kinda think the random chance of a random stray smiley ball teleporting you around fits the vibe...but I think I might just like annoying things. Anyway I wish you luck on figuring out saving and I'm excited to see more quality hams in the future!
Well, this game is being a lotta fun so far! I believe I found most of the new areas as well! There's a village on the cliff by Shrancey's Swamp that I don't know how to get to tho... any tips you can give me? Oh, and I found a place through Merlin that's beneath all that Tubby Custard... Is that Dry Dry Beach, or Clawed Cove?
I found that place too but also got stuck there...closed the game before I realized there was no saving D=
Well, fear not, I know the name of the place now: it's quite literally just a sunken temple below the Custard Sea. You's gotta reset to a checkpoint to leave, there's no other way to escape the area I think.
Spoilers Below:
Dry Dry Beach is just the name given to the beach area that isn't Jimbly's Beach (the area with the Worlds.com building). Clawed Cove, on the other hand, is the cove at the exit of the canyon with the small planet you can blow up.
On a serious note I very much do enjoy this game, it feels like the ultimate tribute to ye egglikes of olde. I just have 3 questions:
Is the Helpful Cloud in Skyworld supposed to warn you about flowers?
Is the ham at Sky Museum supposed to be floating out of reach?
And is there any way to get to the snow island at the beach?
I also seemed to encounter a minor bug where the darkness persisted after exiting the goblin's pot but it went away after going to the skeleton place. I think that's pretty much all I noticed so I'll just say again love the game and thanks for making it.
Thanks for saying so! I just set out to make the egglike I wanted to play really! As for your questions though:
Cloud is correct, flowers are dangerous.
Sky museum ham? You mean the one on top of the Cinema? If so, then yes. Its maybe worth speaking to the wizard! If not then no, that's a bug. I'll have a look around just in case but I think I know where you're talking about...
Snow island is a secret, need to explore a strange shaped castle to get in there.
The bug was fixed pretty quickly, you must've been quick on the draw for the very first version!
Thanks again for playing though! I appreciate all the feedback ^^
Many thanks for answering my questions, I guess the cloud isn't wrong but now I can't tell if collecting hams is good for you or not. And I just mean the place with the dat boi statue.
Also strange shaped castle? On the first island? I swear I was as thorough as possible and the only castles I can think of are on the second island...but it IS on the first island right? Looks like I got some more searching to do.
It is on the first island yeah. Try finding Luigi, then looking for the castle ;)
Big thank, I was not disappointed.
even gooder ham, i enjoy even more
I stayed up all night, almost completing this game.
Truly the peak of egglikes.
... Also uh what's the name of that hot dog thing
Thanks for playing! That's some dedication... Hope it didn't disrupt your sleep too much! And I hope its not too discouraging that there is a new update this Friday. It adds a lot of new stuff so I hope you check it out :D
As for your question...
King Glizzard
I was more referring to the origin of the picture, but thanks anyway.
Ah, its actually just an advertisement statue. If you google "Hotdog statue" you should be able to find it!
This was a really fun game! Even the Bonus Levels were only half as annoying as I thought they would be! Can't wait for the new update, and to check out the Quantum series!
Ah, one thing, the message talking about the first Bonus Level doesn't appear. Is that intended?
No its not, its a bug that will be fixed in the 0.9.9 update that will be coming out shortly!
Such a good game, I really enjoyed how crazy it gets towards the end!
good ham, i enjoy
gamer time
I definitely remember that little robot guy.
Pizza Archibald is a better character than we've ever had.
the games cool i watch vinesauce play it but i cant use internet explorer
Please make a Linux build so I can play.
I'll look into it asap
I hope the new linux build works for you!
hey just wanted to say thanks for this. It works great 👍
Thanks for providing a Linux build! The mouse sensitivity is a little low but it works perfectly otherwise!
I can't believe I'm playing an Egglike on the hip new Steam Deck console, lol
Fun and definitely entertaining exploration game. I must know, though, what song is playing in the flamingo pond in the early game. Google and Shazam won't tell me!
You can find it on the soundtrack playlist here
This game is great.
It's fun to explore and collect hams.
and now I want to speedrun this game.
I've already thought about routing of the run.
Please share if you end up running this! I'd love to see how it compares to my route for testing!
It's only really early game routing.
I only really have routing for just quickly breaking out of the first area.
I just did a test run but i didn't time it because i'm still experimenting with routing.
Does the game save data? I really have a limited schedule most of the time.
Not yet I'm afraid, I plan on adding a save feature for the next version where I'm adding another level which will double the content. I'll have a test version out sometime in July.
Sounds great. ~ I'll hold off a lil till then. Keep up the amazing work. Seriously, we need more people making games like this. It's gotten so sparse.
so glad egg likes are still a thing, every time I play one i am transported back to 2013-2015
I need the "Fight Against a Stronger Monster" rip or I'm going to rip my hair out
gamer time baybeeeeeeeeeee
the hype is too real
