Predatory Pursuit
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
You've been drawn into Fen's hunting grounds. Will you escape, or will you meet you end beneath the monster's pelt?
I was inspired by games likes Alien: Isolation. Fen uses sight, sound, and touch to find you (and your peers). Running makes you more visible and creates quite a racket. Don't tire yourself out too quickly, or you won't be able to escape when Fen corners you...
Here's some gameplay footage. You can find clips of gameplay on my Twitter page, since Itch doesn't make it easy to embed them here.
Experimental builds
The game is free, but I'm taking donations here if you want to support me. Donating at least $5 will give you access to experimental builds, which get frequent updates as I work on the game.
If you donate $20 or more, let me know and I'll credit you in-game (:
Legacy version
I'm working on a major re-write of the game, allowing you to play as any character and greatly expanding what the game is capable of.
Until I've re-implemented everything, you'll be able to download a "legacy" version of the game.
Content
Content warnings: vore and digestion. There are also optional bones and vivid prey vocals you can enable. The legacy version also contains hypnosis and gore. There is no nudity or sexually explicit stuff, but this is still firmly mature, if not adult, content.

The new update looks sick as hell! Can't wait for the next one
Well, I look forward to hopefully having a toggle for the preds visual gender in the "pursuit" game mode; I loved the legacy version, looking forward to seeing where this goes in the future!
That’ll happen once I iron out some more kinks with how configurations are saved – you’ll just wind up picking from a list of presets, or pick one to customize (and then save!).
porn update when
I can't seem to get Fen or the Shark to try and vore any of the gryphons. Did and undid everything, even checked and unchecked intangible players and set them to the most aggressive. They just walk past the gryphons without even picking them up or anything.
Anyone else getting this issue too?
EDIT: Found out my own issue. I'm just an idiot and forgot to turn off interactions between entities.
nope
I should really add a warning in the corner if you have any of those debug settings enabled!
Is there going to be a more neutral or masculine body type again? Not too into the feminine one
You can toggle a neutral one in the sandbox mode. Not in buffet or pursuit though. I assume it will become a toggle somewhere outside sandbox at some point.
The newest update is awesome! I really love the way you implemented Vore and Anal Vore. The static pov is really great in this case.
You can play with it, for example adding toggable acids, adding an arm that flails, pushes and fights on the way into and inside Fens gut and disolves in the end (toggle: Into a bone when gore up)
No matter what comes next, feature wise you are back where the legacy verson has been.
Wonderful!
Was worth another buy from me <3
This is by far the best vore game that I have ever played.
(And I have played a lot of vore games)
Yeah, same for me.
anyone know what button opens the director menu in sandbox theres no prompt on the screen. Nevermind you have to hold tab not tap it.
I just realized I turned off those hints to record a video and…never turned them back on.
I’ll have to fix that!
Any plans to add some other kinds of vore than oral and absorption? Soe more NSFW ones like CV or unbirth?
based off of those being options you can turn on in some of the creator's other vore games, probably eventually, but right now they seem to be mainly focusing on bringing everything that was in the legacy version of Predatory Pursuit to this new version.
why dose it just show a black screen with a line when I press after the press any button screen?
i recommend sending a screenshot along with some device info, like what device your on, and if you extracted the files or not
Since the newest update, if you start either a scenario or sandbox game, it does the loading animation but then just stayes there until it crashes!
Edit: Its the Loading Screen, wich is Bugged. Inside the Debug Options if you disaable it it then loads into the Game Scene again!
Recently tried the MacOs version and I appear to be stuck on a blue screen after loading the game normally. I tried messing around with a few settings in graphics, but it seems to be stuck on the blue screen in game. The UI and main menu work just fine though.
Looks like the entire scene is failing to render. What’re your system specs?
Legacy seems to be running fine with no errors, not sure if that would help. But either way, I have to get rid of this piece of junk. XD

The new menu in the experimental version is really nice. While it's not as stylized, it's so much easier to use, and it still looks great!
So I hope I'm not the only one, but in the new experimental version(2024-02-25) the shark doesn't react at all, it just stands on the same spot. The Fen also doesn't respond to Preys. The Fen does walk around, but it doesn't react to the shark or the Gryphon. You can no longer grab and swallow preys, but only absorb them directly. It's not fun. The idea of a character who can do both isn't bad, but if the shark just stands, does nothing, doesn't react to anything, it's no fun. And as I said, the Pred doesn't swallow the Preys anymore, but they lands directly into the belly. I'm sure it shouldn't be that way. And the Pred doesn't react to Preys, just walks past him even if you're standing in front of him.
That’s odd – it kind of sounds like you have the “Block Perceptions” debug setting enabled. Make sure that isn’t turned on in the settings!
NO KIDDING I CANT PLAY WHOLE SCREEN IS RED
still to fast on digest and idk how to get anal vore..
no anal vore atm
is anyone else getting a bright white screen upon starting sandbox or the other game mode? I can only see the text letters for make noise and (f) to struggle.
this new version is broken, you cant even get grabbed only stepped on
Legacy version bug -- Fen gets butterfingers :(
The post DarkHyena linked shows how to fix this!
The next Preview release will inadvertently solve the problem; I moved the stats file to another folder, so it will no longer confuse the Legacy version.
When the next public build coming?
Probably this Friday.
Now that i have had a few rounds with the new version, there is something that is hopefully extended vastly on: The Vore. Its too fast.
It would be awesome if Fen would lick you, suck on you, nibble on you, holding you infront his open maw, slowly inserting you into his few. saliva-rich mouth, slowly stuffing you into his mouth and shoving you into his esophagous.
Then slowly, gulp after gulp, swallowing you down, holding you into his throats, licking your feet still poking out, finally swallowing you completly down. Petting his stomach, maybe if high cuelty, swallowing some air.
You should be able to struggle and extend the process.
Thinking this even farther: Maybe he could reguritate you, half dead, movement debuff, taking acid damage while he starts again.
A bit curious but what does the struggle action do exactly? Is it a escape from a "grapple" or does it just buy time before you die
Please tell me you will bring the first person swallow and internals back? PLEASE. :S
They’re definitely coming! I just need some time to figure them out.
Thank you! <3
Now hear me out, the hunter gets even bigger! ;)
whole screen is red
in the legacy build, fen absolutely cannot grab the player. ive tried everything in the settings, and they just swing their arms and miss every time :/
See here : https://chemicalcrux.itch.io/predatory-pursuit/devlog/664969/legacy-version-bug-fen-gets-butterfingers-
Hey there Crux! Nice to see ya working on this again!
I was just gonna ask, I've never really used Itch before, so sorry if this is a dumb question. I already bought the game for $15, not noticing the credits. If I were to buy it again for $5, would that work for ya?
Oh yeah, for sure! Just remind me about it when you do that.
Alrighty! There's 5 more ^^
Thanks! I’ll get you added to the credits (:
Awesome! Thanks, and glad I could help, hehe!
Can't wait to see what ya do with this game, it's got an awful lot of potential. ^^
One question. What happened to the Internal?
I have not re-implemented that yet – I have a few design problems to solve first. You can still find it in the Legacy version for the time being.
Thanks. hope you solve the design problems!
When is the new rewrite gonna be part of the base game then experimental
The re-write was mainly a crash course of the new UI. It's still very buggy, and a lot of things don't work as they should right now.
Source? I purchased it and tried it out. Though, the author is more than capable of responding to this and clarifying/correcting anything I said here.
Okay, Thanks
so the experimental build is just for testing new UI until it comes out? FUCK YEAH!
Yesh!!
Can we get an option to resize the window? That would be great.
I really need to figure that out! I’ll look into it.
can you make a browser view?
So, what is the overall future for the game? Aside from polishing the animations, reworking/adding new maps, do you have any plans to add mechanics to some of the maps like the graveyard and basement? Also, I know this gets asked a lot, but what about varying types of vore? Do you just have oral in mind for now? Do you have any plans to add other variants?
Aside from my questions, this is a great game! The occasional bug here and there, but still a great game! Hope to see more from you in the future!
I’m going to be exploring objectives more thoroughly soon, for sure. There will be randomly-generated levels with simple objectives.
I’m mostly sticking to oral vore. I’ll be adding some kind of “goo vore” (just getting shoved into a goo creature), and I might do anal vore, since it’s relatively simple to do.
Thanks for playing (:
Anal vore could probably occur if you went up to him from behind, or just by a very small chance when caught, and if added it'd increase playtime = more players = more popularity
Doubt it
Looks great can't wait for the update!!
will there be other vore like cock vore or unbirthing repectivly for the gender of the monster?
Please fix the blinding lighting.
They said it in a post of theirs, (A comment in the post really,) but I believe they're going to completely redo it once they get their animations all done.
Edit: Just found the comment. I'll just copy/paste it here.
"That village map has had really screwed up rendering for ages. I’ll probably be rebuilding it."
If you added sex to the game then yes otherwise I'm not interested
Sex wouldn't work because this is more of a vore game then sex
Maybe you could add anal vore? Or facesitting? it'd fit in the game pretty well...
Radio silence for 2 months now, hope you did not lose fun and interest on this game, because it is so wonderful!
Do a VR-Mode, Full-Tour and/or Escape machanics, movement inside his stomach and i will buy full price again! :P
VR might not work given that the controls would be a nightmare to add in for VR
Since it is kinda one button for interaction it is acutally, i think, an easer implementation than other games :P
True, But i think first a fix on the lighting in some areas would be needed first, As well as fixing how prey spawn on the garage map as well since they do tend to spawn on top of it then ground level, A few more maps would also be nice, Some AV and CV would also be nice poisbbly have it be turned on and off from a toggle, First person internals could use some work
Yeah, i could be fine with any of this ^^
I don't think Crux has ever finished a game, certainly never anything this complex. Don't get your hopes up.
Well, he is one of the few heroes who make true 3D Vore games in the first place, so ,finished or not, i do not dare to complain.
I celebrate every game of this kind, no matter in what state. =)
Oh for sure, I don't think anybody else makes stuff as creative and exciting. I just wish he had more focus rather than flitting between projects
is this still being developed?
most certainly!
Very kewl game
I paid the 5$ to support this game because I think it's so great, and I love it so much! I have no issues with this game and I would like a VR feature but tbh I don't expect anything like that anytime soon because it is still a work in progress so I know it's better to have a complete product before adding things as complicated as VR support. I do have an issue where the village lighting is off and I don't think there is a skybox, just a black void and other people have had this issue and I'm wondering if it's because we are all using an integrated graphics card that isn't supported or if people on normal desktop computers with normal gpu's are having this issue, but I'm guessing it's probably just the game not being supported on things like my laptop. But even then, the game works great with no issues at all and it runs as well on my laptop as on my steam deck! I only have that one problem with the lighting in the village map so maybe it isn't related to that. But anyways, thank you for making this game! Game development is really difficult and a lot of people don't understand, and even I probably don't understand that much but I have tried to make games so I do have some idea of how hard it is...
Also: I'd love it to be easier to spawn in NPC's without needing the debug menu, because my favourite part is spawning NPC's besides me as well and stuff so I think it would be cool to maybe add a button to spawn them in easier.
