Hungry Horrors 1.0 is out now After over two years of development, Hungry Horrors has left Early Access and the full game is finally here. We're a team of two, self-funded and self-published, so getting to this point means a lot to us. When we launched into Early Access in January, we hoped players would help us shape the game. You went well beyond that. You reported bugs, sent us feedback and suggestions, helped with translations, and kept playing with every update. So much of what's in 1.0 is there because of you. If you've been waiting for the full release, now's the time to cook your way through every Horror the British Isles can throw at you. Hungry Horrors is 20% off until 19 October

- Playtest is dead, all hail Beta test - 20 August 2026
Playtest is dead, all hail Beta test We're closing our separate playtest app. It served us well, but from now on we're putting all our effort into one final version of the game, tested here on the Beta branch, ahead of the eventual full release. As we approach the end of Hungry Horrors' development, we need more feedback from all of you so we can finish the campaign and the whole storyline. We now have Part 1 of the endgame content ready for testing, with Part 2 coming soon. It's not balanced yet, there are probably still bugs, and some elements are missing. We'll keep improving it until we're happy with the result, and your feedback along the way is a huge part of that. Version 0.3.6 is live on the Beta branch ONLY. It's a big one: the Megaliths biome, our final biome, is ready for testing. This update also includes some, but not all, of the content that comes after it, including the r…

- Banquet Mode is out now - 19 June 2026
Banquet mode is out now.What is Banquet mode? Banquet is a new way to play Hungry Horrors. Where Campaign is a long-form roguelite with persistent progression, Banquet strips things back to a single run. Three acts. Permanent death. No meta-progression carrying over. You earn a new dish after every monster battle. Monster tastes are shown before each encounter rather than discovered through play. At the start you pick a princess variant: Basic, Random, Stinky, Clumsy, Diet, or Lazy. Then you're in with no safety nets. It's shorter and harder than Campaign, and decisions carry more weight when there's nothing to fall back on. Demo update 0.2.21 If you're playing the free demo, this update brings a lot of new content. Banquet mode is now in the demo. And for the first time, the modes and modifiers from the main game are also available to try: Vanilla - the standard experience, same as the…
