Indie game about saving turtles

Save turtles both in game and in real life? Too Many Turtles is a tactical point builder card game in which two players fight over the course of up to 3 rounds to create the most valuable army of turtles that they are able to gather. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins and the game goes to the first player to win 2 out of 3 rounds. On the other side, you have an army of daredevil turtles being controlled by humans trying to stop turtron from saving the world. Wielding terrible effect cards like Debilitating Pollution and Plastic, they will stop at nothing to keep the valiant hero Turtron from cleaning the environment and helping the turtle population to reassert itself. Thanks to our amazing partners at SEE Turtles, you’ll be able to save turtles no matter which deck you play! In fact, we will pledge to save at least 50 turtles for every person who backs our game. In other words, your figurative turtle saving antics can literally save endangered sea turtles in real life.

Now some info about real world turtle issues. Sea Turtle Conservancy. Sea Turtle Conservancy was established in 1956 after some of the earliest publications detailing the plight of sea turtles amid global climate change. Their primary focus has been preserving the Caribbean Green Sea Turtle, bringing it back from the brink of extinction. Based in Gainesville, Florida, Sea Turtle Conservancy is no a multifaceted operation, with educational programs and research focusing on sea turtles. The research department operates across Latin America, primarily in the coastal areas ringing the Caribbean where they can track movement and behavior of the local turtle populations.

From the guys who played Cards Against Humanity and Exploding Kittens comes a new game, starring some of the slowest animals on the planet; but things get moving pretty quickly! Players will take turns playing turtles and moving them across the field as quickly as possible, dodging all of the wild effects that their opponent can throw at them. Sometimes the effects are very real, like discarded Plastic or Debilitating Pollution, sometimes they’re as sudden as Shell Death!

When we started this journey, we didn’t realize that 129 out of 300 species of turtles on this planet are considered either Vulnerable, Endangered or Critically Endangered. We didn’t realize that 6 out of 7 species of Sea Turtles are listed as Threatened or Endangered due in large part to human activity. We didn’t realize that as a society, we throw away 14 billion lbs of trash every year, and that 80% of plastic waste in our oceans came from inland sources. We didn’t realize and so we didn’t do anything. Now we realize what is happening and we’ve taken it as our responsibility to do something before Sea Turtles go extinct and we, as a species, end up going past the point of no return.
