The sequel to [http://www.wolfire.com Wolfire Games'] ''[[Lugaru]]'' and built on their proprietary Phoenix Engine, '''''Overgrowth''''' is a [[Beat'Em Up]] with strong [[Platformer|platforming]] and [[Parkour]] elements. Like its predecessor, it follows the adventures of Turner, the [[Walking the Earth|wandering warrior]], but it will featurefeatures multiplayer, vastly improved graphics and physics, a wider range of weapons and combat moves, and new races (the original's rabbits and wolves plus cats, dogs, and rats <ref>and possibly a whale</ref>).
 
The game was announced in 2008 and released in 2017, 9 years after its announcement.
The game is in alpha right now, with a new build ([http://www.youtube.com/user/WolfireGames and a new demonstration video)] released each week.

=== Tropes: ===
* [[After the End]]: Concept art for ''Overgrowth'' (and [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|the name]]) may hint at this. It shows lots of out-of-place ancient ruins overrun by nature, all clearly [http://cdn.wolfire.com/blog/ruins/nanoarch.jpg remnants of] [http://www.flickr.com/photos/wolfire-games/2983247026/sizes/o/in/set-72157608461285868/ heavily] [http://www.flickr.com/photos/wolfire-games/2983247120/sizes/o/in/set-72157608461285868/ decayed] [http://www.flickr.com/photos/wolfire-games/2982391259/sizes/o/in/set-72157608461285868/ modern] [http://www.flickr.com/photos/wolfire-games/2982392069/sizes/o/in/set-72157608461285868/ architecture]. [[Shrug of God|Wolfire Games have decided]] to leave this possible backstory of the Lugaruverse [[Wild Mass Guessing|open to interpretation by players]].
* [[Almost-Lethal Weapons]]: Averted, at least for bladed weapons.
