Coyote Pack is a browser game by Daniel McKeown that follows a gray urban coyote into Lavender Hill. After crossing a bridge into the hilly neighborhood, the coyote must navigate an unfamiliar world and find a place in it.
Explore Lavender Hill
The neighborhood has a commercial strip, parks, woods, a creek, and a beach. Players can scavenge and hunt for food, find water, and meet a cast of animals and other characters. A changing day and night cycle, seasons, and weather help bring the surroundings to life.
Find your pack
Players can learn other coyotes' body language, make friends, and form a temporary pack of up to four coyotes. Together they can roam the neighborhood, hunt, and even take on the farmers' market. Old friends may answer a howl.
Play your way
Coyote Pack works in desktop and mobile browsers, with keyboard and on-screen controls. Use the arrow keys or WASD to move, J or Z to interact, K or X to act wild, and L or C to eat or drink. Players can also choose between two coyote looks.
Built in the open
The game's source code is available on GitHub. It uses JavaScript and a custom canvas renderer, with a PHP backend for accounts, cloud saves, and optional AI-written animal dialogue.
