Collect ‘em all at the Creature Collector Fest

Fans of creature collecting games unite!


If you find yourself with the undeniable urge to rescue and collect every cute lil’ critter you come across in a video game, then the Creature Collector Fest is for you.



Alongside a host of other adorable titles, you’ll find our own cosy offering - Loddlenaut.

Take to the ocean planet of GUP-14 in this relaxing ocean clean-up game set on a vibrant alien planet. Play as an interstellar custodian tasked with cleaning up the pollution left behind by an irresponsible mega-corporation. Befriend and care for local axolotl-like creatures called loddles as you explore the vibrant waters, picking up trash, blasting goo and reviving their habitats in Loddlenaut.

The event will run 12 May @ 10:00am PDT/19:00pm CET to 19 May @ 10:00am PDT/19:00pm CET where 🫧Loddlenaut will be 55% off during the event🫧

Happy Creature Collecting!

Make Wholesome Waves with our new three-game bundle!

Hello everyone!

We’re extremely excited to announce a brand new bundle with our friends over at Hiwarp and Lente - Wholesome Waves!

This bundle features Loddlenaut and two other incredible indie games - NAIAD and Spilled! The bundle name fits pretty well, don’t you think?

If you want to swim or sail across new waters and haven’t picked up any of these three great games, the Wholesome Waves bundle will give you a sweet 10% discount! If you already own any of these three games, purchasing the bundle will only charge you for the games you don’t have, so you can complete the set.

Alongside our pollution-clearing, creature-caring title from Moon Lagoon, Spilled! Also sees you clean ocean waste in your upgradeable boat, whilst NAIAD is a dreamy minimalist experience, where you engage with river flora and fauna to discover a memorable story.



Now if you’ll excuse us, we have some relaxing exploration and ocean cleaning to do.

1.2.4 Patch Notes - No more missing loddles!

Hey everyone! We’ve got a tiny patch going live today that fixes two bugs recently identified by the community.

[h3]Fixes:[/h3]
  • Fixed an issue that was causing loddles to slowly swim back to the Home Cove (and possibly go under the map) when attempting to drop them off at a new biome after fast traveling.
  • Fixed an issue that allowed the storage menu to be openable (and invisible) during the ending sequence.

1.2.3 Patch Notes - A small batch of bug fixes!

Hello everyone! We’ve just pushed a minor patch that fixes a few issues that were identified by the community since we released the Goddles Update.

[h3]Changes:[/h3]
  • Added Crystal Crisp and Crispy Cookie to the “Diet” section of relevant evolution cards in the Loddlepedia.

[h3]Fixes:[/h3]
  • Fixed an issue that was causing litter that was destroyed due to the game reaching its item limit to not be removed from a biome's pollution tracking system.
  • Fixed an issue that resulted in the Crafting Station menu occasionally displaying the incorrect item when it was opened while using a controller.
  • Fixed an issue that resulted in certain patches of goop redundantly initializing themselves when a save file was loaded, which was increasing load times and causing crashes on Mac.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing the tubey melons in the Main Menu to have their item sheen effect enabled.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing following loddles to incorrectly pay attention to fruit that had just been plucked off a nearby plant by a non-following loddle.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing lost loddles to not identify the Home Cove as a valid home location if they were cleaned and then followed the player back home after the player ran out of oxygen.
  • Fixed an issue that was causing a biome’s clean objective to remain stuck at 99% when the biome was fully clean in-game. The game will now check for this situation and manually fix it when a save file is reloaded.


We’re now going to be taking a break from development, but we’ll still be paying attention to bug reports, so we appreciate you folks notifying us of any issues you encounter!
