Have you ever wished to be a hermit crab? Of course you have! That's because you aren't a soulless being. Now you can experience it by playing Hermit King :)

Put yourself in the shoes of a crab and grow until you get the GREAT GOLDEN SHELL and...

 

Become THE HERMIT KING! 

Eat moss balls around the beach for getting bigger.

Change your shell as you grow.

Defend yourself from the jealous crabs ...or attack them to steal them.

Launch your shell to inflict ranged damage.

Jump out of the shell for a quick getaway.

 

 

 

"WHY WOULD ANYONE DO SUCH A GAME?"

 

This was my final project of my master's degree in videogame programming and design (sorry, it's only in Spanish because of that).

I was looking for giving a try to procedural animations when I felt in love with hermit crabs :) . I enjoy exploring different game concepts, so I thought, why not? The rest is history.

In addition to programming and designing the game, I also modeled and textured the crabs and shells. My dear friend David Pascual helped me with the sounds and I get the rest of the assets from other free sources, modifying them to fit the game.

By the way, I'm pretty proud of the shell crack shader. It was the first one I created without following any tutorials, hehehe.
