Note written 2026-08-24; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.

A cozy co-op adventure where players explore a public park as squirrels, gathering resources, solving puzzles, and building nests.

Squirreled Away shipped in early 2024 to strong critical sentiment (94.6% positive, 98.6% recent) and has generated $142k lifetime on modest scale. The title shows healthy residual revenue ($1.1–1.4k/mo), zero promotional spend in 12 months, and a tight core audience of 3–22 concurrent players who explicitly request sequels and longer content. This is a publishing or licensing candidate for a studio seeking a proven, low-maintenance IP with demonstrated appeal to cozy and family segments; acquisition of the game alone is unlikely to justify cost, but the franchise concept and Far Seas' execution merit watch-list placement or partnership exploration. Most realistic play: publishing.

Risk: Median playtime of 7.5 hours and repeated player feedback on brevity signal content exhaustion; sequel or DLC demand is real but unvalidated at scale.
Risk: Studio status flagged as fading; developer has posted zero updates in 12+ months and maintains only one title in portfolio, suggesting limited capacity for ongoing support or expansion.
Risk: Co-op mode flagged by players as glitchy with achievement desync; technical debt here could undermine a revival or sequel pitch.
