Be a fox squirrel in Seguin, Texas, the Pecan Capital of Texas. Run, climb, and collect pecans across 8 real parts of town.


Pecantown Scamper

Cabeza de Vaca called the Guadalupe the River of Nuts. He was not wrong.

You're Pip, a fox squirrel in Seguin, Texas, the Pecan Capital of Texas. Scamper, climb, and leap through eight real parts of town, stuffing your cheeks with pecans (that's peh-CAHN) and stashing them in nests before a hawk, a shop dog, or a golf ball ruins your afternoon.

Eight districts of Seguin

  • River of Nuts: the Guadalupe's pecan bottoms, cypress knees, and Saffold Dam
  • Courthouse Square: downtown, Central Park, and the World's Largest Pecan (climbable, obviously)
  • Walnut Springs: Robert Hugman's sunken park, with springs and stone bridges
  • Starcke Park: pecan groves, picnic-table springboards, and golfers who yell FORE!
  • Heritage Village: log cabins, Los Nogales, and a tiny old jail you can dash right through
  • Magnolia Night: the Magnolia Hotel after dark, where the wisps steal pecans
  • Big Red Barn: Pecan Fest grounds, tractor rides, and a 16-foot pecan to climb
  • Pape's Pecan House: nutcrackers everywhere. Try not to look like a pecan.

Things to find

  • Hidden painted statues from Seguin's real Squirrel Trail
  • Postcards from real landmarks: the Texas Theatre, the courthouse, the Juan Seguín statue and more
  • S-ranks for the truly nutty

Controls (keyboard or gamepad required, no touch controls yet)

  • ←/→ or A/D: run
  • Space, W or ↑: jump (press again in midair for a tail-flick double jump)
  • Shift: dash
  • Push into trees and brick: cling. Hold ↑ to climb bark.

Everything is bigger in Texas. Including the pecan you just ignored.
