Big Brains Update: Gold, Traders, Pets, and Crabs (Yes, Crabs)








Hey survivors!
After many cups of coffee (and maybe a nervous breakdown or two), I’m back with a BIG update for A Survival Game — and oh boy, there’s chaos.
This update brings a bunch of new features, improvements, and slightly disturbing creatures to your bunker. Here's what’s new:
Trader & Gold System
Tired of collecting gold for no reason? Same.
Now you can finally use your gold by trading it with the brand-new TRADER, who gives you 100 points per gold.
Sounds sketchy? It is. But it works.
NEW Creature: Blat Choice
It walks sideways.
It has zero remorse.
It’s a crab (sort of?) and it’s ready to ruin your plans.
Meet Blat Choice, a new wandering enemy who shows up when you least want him to. Which is always.
PETS! (They poop money)
Okay, not exactly poop...
You can now adopt pets that generate passive income.
They’re cute, loyal, and economically helpful. You’ll want ten. (And yes, you can.)
Save System Improved (Finally)
No more losing progress on HTML!
The save system now works correctly on both HTML and Windows versions.
More platforms are coming soon!
Floating Text + On-Screen Tips
-
Every time you click, you now see floating feedback (without lagging your PC!)
-
New players also get on-screen tips during gameplay to avoid dying in the first 5 seconds. You're welcome.
Slightly Reduced Difficulty (but just a little)
Yes, I heard you.
The game was hard. Now it’s still hard... but like, 2% more forgiving. Enjoy the illusion of control 😄
Mercy DLC Reminder
If you’re struggling (or just want to cheat a little), check out the Mercy DLC for $1:
-
+3 stickmen card
-
+$100 instant card
-
Traitor card (kick someone out for $200)
-
Mercy Card: lets you go back to your previous save!
Perfect for when you made very bad decisions™.
What’s next?
More monsters?
A story mode?
Multiplayer chaos??
Who knows. Probably all of it.
If you have ideas, suggestions, or if something exploded while you were playing, tell me in the comments!
Thanks for playing A Survival Game.
Now get back in that bunker... your stickmen are starving. Again.
