Snugfang

Long ago the sea-beast SNUGFANG sank beneath the waves. Its tide is rising again — and there is only one buoy.

SNUGFANG is a bite-sized physics party game for 1–4 players. You and your friends are the Chums — four hapless swimmers flailing through a flooding arena, fighting over a single load-limited buoy. It comfortably floats two. A third climber sinks it and tips everyone off.


Here's the twist that makes friends turn on each other: you all share one breath meter. Every drowning head drains it; every safe rider tops it up — but a lone survivor can never refill fast enough to save the group. Cooperation isn't a nice-to-have, it's structural. So you rescue, you betray, you yank a friend off the float at the worst possible second to buy your own lungs three more seconds… and you all go under laughing.

Nobody beats Snugfang. The flood is inexorable — it climbs faster every round and always wins. The only score that matters is how long your crew outlasted the tide, and who was the last head above water.


Built 100% from primitives and procedural audio — every wave, every Chum, every panicked heartbeat is generated from pure geometry and synthesized sound. No bought art, no asset-flip filler. A deliberate, hand-built minimalism: fast, readable, and mean.

Key features

• 1–4 players — couch co-op (shared screen, gamepads + keyboard) or online play.
  
• Play alone on the couch and the seats still fill — up to three AI Chums join in, and the crew's temperament changes round to round: some cling to the seat, some rotate you in, some just panic.
  
• One buoy, two seats — pure ragdoll-physics scramble; the third rider drowns the lot.
  
• Shared air — you live and drown together; a lone survivor still loses. Cooperation is structural, not optional.
  
• Who drowns last wins — the flood always takes everyone; the round is really a fight over the order.
  
• Three ways to play — LAST CALL (best-of-5 match — one champion), RIPTIDE (the modifier card re-draws mid-round), KING OF THE BUOY (most seat-time wins, not the highest head).
  
• An 11-card deck of cruel modifiers deals a new one every round and keeps pushing deeper each run instead of resetting to the same cards from the top — drifting currents, shrinking buoys, whirlpools, and more.
  
• Hand-built from pure geometry — a premium primitive aesthetic + code-synthesized sound; moody, minimal, instantly readable.
  
• Cheap, mean, endlessly replayable — "one more round" until someone rage-quits.
