Indie game developer Define Human, along with nature-focused UK publisher Slug Disco, are thrilled to announce that the Kickstarter pre-launch page for their upcoming crow survival game, Migration, is now officially live!

Since its initial reveal in October 2025, Migration has flown under the radar of few. The game has already amassed over 72,000 Steam wishlists, attracted more than 3,500 Discord members, and accumulated nearly 10 million views across social platforms including TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts. Now, fans and prospective backers can finally follow the project directly on Kickstarter to ensure they don’t miss a beat when the official crowdfunding campaign launches.

Step Into the Feathers of a Feathered Strategist

Migration is an immersive open-world survival crafting game where you take control of a migrating crow navigating a world caught in relentless cycles of warmth and frost. As the encroaching winter threatens to freeze water sources, bury lush landscapes under ice, and render vital routes impassable, your core objective is clear: survive, prepare, and know when to take flight for safer lands.

Key features players can look forward to include:

• Dynamic Survival Mechanics: Balance basic needs like hunger, thirst, health, and stamina while avoiding sharp-eyed predators lurking on land and in the skies.
• Nest Building & Customisation: Build a safe haven wherever you choose—on cliff edges, deep inside caves, or high up in tree branches. Gather twigs, straw, and decorative materials to craft the perfect nest to rest, recover, and raise a family.
• Family & Alliances: Team up with other crows, defend your home territory, lay eggs, and protect your chicks. You can even forge alliances, trade resources, or cooperate with other animal species across the living ecosystem.
• Adaptive Resource Management: Scavenge berries, meat, and tools, but watch out—food spoils over time, and rival wildlife won’t hesitate to steal your hoarded supplies if left unprotected.
• Changing Seasons & Tough Choices: Decide when it is time to leave before conditions grow too harsh. Migrate too late and you risk perishing in the brutal cold; leave too early and you might miss out on precious resources.

A Vision Hatched by Passionate Developers

Founded by duo Dan and Ale—two experienced game developers who met as co-workers—Migration started back in January 2025 as a small side project inspired by a group of struggling birds. Over time, the concept evolved into a deeply atmospheric, highly detailed survival simulation centred around one of nature’s most intelligent creatures.

Partnering with Slug Disco—the publisher known for hits like Empires of the Undergrowth and Adapt—Migration is backed by a team that truly knows how to bring nature-themed indie titles to life.
