Toronto Indie Team Furcula to Launch Creature-Collecting Roguelike Game This November

Morsels: An Exciting Release on the Horizon

Morsels, an innovative top-down creature-collecting roguelike shooter from indie studio Furcula, in collaboration with Annapurna Interactive, is set to launch on November 18, 2025. This announcement was made today, heightening anticipation for a game that promises to bring a quirky twist to the genre.

Game Overview: What’s Morsels About?

First revealed during Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase in August 2024, Morsels is characterized as an “oddball”adventure where players assume the role of a small mouse scavenging for treasures in the sewers. Along the way, you encounter a magical, frog-like entity known as a fatberg. This unique encounter transforms you into a Morsel, bestowing upon you the ability to switch between various Morsels you discover throughout your quest, allowing for strategic gameplay adaptations.

Developer Insights

Furcula, based in Toronto, is a fresh face in the indie game development scene. Morsels marks the studio’s first release, created by a dedicated trio comprising artist Toby Dixon, musician Sam Webster, and designer/programmer Iggy Zuk. With a passionate team behind it, Morsels is poised to captivate players on multiple platforms, including PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch.

Player Experiences and Expectations

This past June, I had the opportunity to experience Morsels as part of the Steam Next Fest. It quickly stood out as my favorite demo. Reflecting on my playtime, I noted,

If you don’t play any other demos from Steam Next Fest in its closing weekend and only play Morsels, it will have been a Next Fest well spent. This creature-collecting roguelite is weird in all the best ways, with gameplay that feels fun to execute and a roguelite system that I can’t wait to dive deeper into. I’m hopeful that this game does make its 2025 release window, only because I absolutely cannot wait to play the full game.

Availability of the Demo

For those eager to dive into the whimsical world of Morsels before its official launch, the demo is currently available on Steam. This presents a perfect opportunity for players to familiarize themselves with the game’s unique mechanics and enchanting art style.

Looking Forward

The excitement surrounding Morsels continues to grow as its release date approaches. With its blend of creativity and engaging gameplay, it is a highly anticipated addition to the indie game landscape in 2025.
