Looking for your next rage-inducing platformer obsession? Get ready to crack. Alibi Games and Egobounds have officially announced that their brutally difficult precision platformer Egging On will be participating in Steam Next Fest starting June 9, 2025, with a brand-new demo. The full game hatches shortly after—August 7, 2025, exclusively on Steam.
🥚 What Is Egging On?
Egging On is a hard-boiled, precision-based climber developed by Polish indie studio Egobounds. Think Getting Over It or Jump King—but instead of a muscled man in a cauldron, you’re an egg. A fragile, no-checkpoints, physics-defying egg.
Your goal? Escape the henhouse and navigate increasingly absurd environments—from farms and factories to shops and beyond—without cracking under pressure. One false move, and you’re starting over.
🔥 Why It’s One of the Hardest Games at Steam Next Fest
With a physics system that punishes the slightest misstep and no hand-holding in sight, Egging On is already generating buzz as one of the most challenging games featured at Steam Next Fest 2025.
The upcoming Next Fest demo, launching June 9, gives players their first hands-on experience with:
- 🐔 The Hen-House Biome – The game’s chaotic opening level
- 🎮 A New Tutorial Playground – Learn the game’s controls in a creative sandbox
- 🥇 In-Game Speedrun Timer – Challenge your friends and the leaderboard
- 💎 15+ Unlockable Secret Shells – Including a jet-powered rocket egg
This will be the first publicly playable demo of Egging On, and fans of precision platformers are already eyeing it as a sleeper hit of the showcase.
📅 Mark Your Calendar: Egging On Launches August 7, 2025
Following its demo debut at Steam Next Fest, Egging On will fully release on Steam on Thursday, August 7, 2025. The game is currently available to wishlist on Steam, and the developers are encouraging players to join the community on Discord to follow updates and development insights.
