We're streaming live 24/7 from our Steam page in the days leading up to our launch! Is it an early preview? Live dev updates? A new trailer? Nope, it's a livestream of an endangered black-footed ferret!
Why?
You play as a ferret in Widget Satchel, and we did a lot of research so Sprocket would look and feel the right amount of silly. But at first we were only looking at domesticated ferrets, so when we learned about the conversation efforts to protect the seriously threatened black-footed ferret, we thought we could do something a little less silly to support them.
Is this your ferret?
Nope. Run by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the black-footed ferret cam captures a real-time feed of North America's most endangered mammal that, at one point, was thought to be extinct. More live ferret cams are available on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service website.
Donations can be made to support black-footed ferret recovery through the American Ferret Association.
