The sequel to [http://www.wolfire.com Wolfire Games'] ''[[Lugaru (Video Game)|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 feature 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>).

* [[Development Gag]]: The fearsome Whale Man was used as a reason why Wolfire wasn't going to put water in the game. He's currently in the alpha (albeit as an inanimate statue) and might make it into the full game in some form.

* [[Furries Are Easier to Draw]]: [[Word of God]] states that this is half the reason they designed the game around animals instead of humans. It also helps avoid the [[Uncanny Valley]].
