About this project
It's time to get hangry!
Face off against an invading armada of adorable little killers with a serious case of mankind munchies in this exciting new VR game from Studio229. Join up with the Critter Death Squad (an unconventional extermination company) and arm yourself to the teeth with epic weaponry designed by the team’s unhinged mad scientist, get tactical updates from a KGB pizza delivery driver, and fight to keep Earth off the dinner menu!
A new VR game for the masses... of aliens, that is.
Hangry Bunnies From Mars is a VR survival shooter pitting the player against hundreds of onscreen alien bunnies, something we haven't seen in VR before! Players will be making split-second decisions to overcome the bunny horde, utilizing several unique unlockable weapons and activating powerful secondary weapons to survive as long as possible. Hangry Bunnies From Mars is as ridiculous as it is comedic, with zany weapons, stylized aliens, ridiculous character commentary, a vibrant city, and a rocking soundtrack sure to immerse the player in the Bunnies world. Check out our teaser trailer!
Those are some hangry bunnies!
The Bunny Empire came suddenly and without warning, swarming en-masse from the Red Planet itself with the sole intention of chowing down on the human race. Experts in alien classification have categorized the Bunny Empire’s forces into three unique breeds: the deadly-in-numbers Fluffies, the terrifyingly massive Heavies, and the pesky Scouts in their little UFOs. Each will require skill and careful prioritization to ensure your survival as long as possible!
A critter infestation of this magnitude will require some seriously heavy weaponry!
Hangry Bunnies From Mars wouldn't be complete without some seriously ridiculous weapons! You'll get access to Colin’s cutting-edge modular weapon platform he calls ‘Generic Untitled Name’ or G.U.N. for short. Each G.U.N. contains within it all the different weapon types a CDS exterminator requires, all packed into one convenient, transforming package. Integrated into each G.U.N. are powerful secondary weapons: a gravity manipulator that pulls in nearby aliens and then blasts them away and a calming weapon that turns hangry bunnies into pacified ones for easier target annihilation! With these powerful weapons, you'll never be left empty-handed when it comes to maximum extermination!
The Critter Death Squad
The Critter Death Squad is a group of extermination specialists whose lack of subtlety in their business name has given them excellent discoverability on the internet. The CDS is staffed by Colin the genius weapons engineer, Vlad the ex-KGB pizza delivery driver who serves as the CDS tactician, and you, the exterminator, who may or may not be a clone. Colin and Vlad will provide hilarious commentary and instruction as you make your stand against the Bunny Empire, and in the unfortunate event that you happen to die when facing the horde, there's always more exterminator clones!
Save the city, no matter the cost (to the city, that is!)
The CDS has decided to make its stand against the Bunny Empire in the Old Part of New Los Angeles, a sprawling metropolis built in the Palm Desert after the first Los Angeles was flooded with rising seawater. Reports of a massive alien force headed towards NewLA hasn’t dissuaded the Critter Death Squad from being the brave heroes that the city never knew it wanted (to keep as far away as possible).
Intelligent difficulty adjuster
Hangry Bunnies From Mars has a built-in difficulty system that will dynamically adjust the game's difficulty depending on your skills, perfect for party games and unskilled exterminators alike! If you need more of a challenge, there are three difficulty multipliers (Fluffy-Wuffy, Hangry, Really Hangry) for an extra challenge, with a bonus score multiplier for each!
The most epic soundtrack you've ever heard.
Playing the game is fun, but listening to the soundtrack is better! Featuring an incredible music score composed by Dave Dexter that dynamically adjusts as you play, you'll surely be humming the Hangry Bunnies theme as you exterminate those alien critters!

Risks and challenges
Greetings, everyone! We are Studio229, a small team of artists, developers and storytellers based in Los Angeles, California. We're super excited to show off our latest work to you; we believe the VR community is going to love it!
Before setting off to make Hangry Bunnies From Mars, we did several major commercial VR projects for major brands, including Oculus, Lego, Morgan Page, YouTube Red, Octonauts, Cheerios and The Secret Location. Our years of experience crafting vibrant VR worlds has given us the technical expertise we need to finish Hangry Bunnies.
We invested all of our savings into making this game, so we are 100% committed to seeing it to the market. And the best part is that we're almost done with this game! We're not seeking funding to start the development process, we are about a month away from finishing the whole game, and we just need a little bit extra to get us to the finish line!
So instead of waiting months or even years to fulfill the rewards, you can back this project knowing that you'll be playing Hangry Bunnies From Mars before you know it.
With your help, we can finish the production costs for our game, pay the remainder of our artists, and deliver what we hope will be one of the most fun VR games of the year!
