As It Is (Demo)
A downloadable game
We are Egghouse, and we're developing As It Is, a watercolor, storybook-like 2D sidescrolling narrative adventure game about helping animals be themselves. With As It Is, you can play as:
- A small hedgehog
With these planned characters in the future:
- A small bird
With As It Is, we want to celebrate the various cultures and identities we see in our world, to love those with differing perspectives, and especially to grow and accept ourselves.
Gameplay
As It Is features a conversation system that simulates social anxiety! Help Hedgehog make friends! Toot your trumpet! Your world is limitless!
Disclaimer: world is not actually limitless.

Did a quick run through this on my stream. As someone with anxiety issues who's also been lied to by raccoons, it's quite endearing! And hopefully you can figure out what I did that caused that bug.
Thank you so much for playing! We'll see if we can nab that bug :)
I love this game I played it at Play NYC!! I think the art is fantastic and the mechanics are very compelling! The writing is also great, they feel instantly believable! (side note please change the font for this page, it's super hard to read)
Thanks John - that is wonderful to hear!
Re: font - done! We're still continuously working on expanding the game with more mechanics, characters, and scenes. If you're interested in learning about our workflow, you can check out our blog here. Thanks for the suggestion, and thanks for playing! 🦔✨
