Golden Egg Rush

“What did my chickens lay today?”

A cozy VR farm where you raise a flock of ridiculous, expressive chickens, collect every egg with your own two hands, and chase the rarest reward on the farm — the Golden Egg.

01 · The pitch

Raise the flock.
Chase the Golden Egg.

Golden Egg Rush is a cozy VR pet-care and management game inspired by the emotional pull of virtual pets. Every chicken has its own personality, needs and behaviour.

Care for your animals, upgrade the coop and you raise the odds of producing valuable eggs — with the extremely rare Golden Egg as the farm's ultimate prize.

The experience is built around two long-term goals: helping every player reach the milestone of finding their first Golden Egg, and then keeping them coming back to build stronger flocks, collect more Golden Eggs and climb the rankings.

02 · Core loop

Four things you do every single day

Nothing here happens through a menu. You walk into the coop, you reach in, and you find out what the flock produced.

1

Care

Refill feeders, carry water, clean the coop, repair equipment and keep every bird comfortable. A calm, well-fed hen is a productive hen.

2

Lay

Overnight, condition, level, personality and traits all feed into what each nest holds in the morning. Or doesn't.

3

Reveal

Physically move the hen aside and check the nest yourself. Rotten, standard, premium — or, very rarely, gold.

4

Sell or hatch

Sort eggs into cartons and sell them for income, or put the hatchable ones in the incubator and wait to meet whoever comes out.

03 · The hook

Two moments of anticipation

Nest reveal

What did they lay?

Every visit to the coop is a small lottery. A nest may hold a rotten egg, a standard egg, a premium egg or — in extremely rare cases — a Golden Egg.

You have to walk up to each nest, move the chicken and look for yourself. That single question is what pulls you back tomorrow.

Hatch reveal

Who came out?

Leave an egg in the incubator overnight and come back to meet a brand new bird with its own sex, rarity, personality, traits and look.

You name every chicken you hatch, which quietly turns procedural stats into a pet with a story.

04 · The pets

Every chicken is somebody

Each bird is born with a rarity, a sex and a personality. Those traits drive behaviour and performance — stress, appetite, water use, egg quantity, egg quality, and the odds of rotten, premium or Golden Eggs.

A speckled black and white hen
Anxious

Stress-prone

Spooks easily, burns through condition faster and is first out the door when something goes wrong.

A fluffy black silkie hen
Gluttonous

Eats everything

Moves slowly and drains feed and water at an alarming rate. Worth it, sometimes.

A white hen with its wings on its hips
Protective

Won't budge

Guards the nest and flatly refuses to show you the egg. You will have to negotiate.

A yellow hen
Lazy

Nest-adjacent

Rarely leaves the nesting area. Low maintenance, low drama, low mileage.

A black and gold spangled hen mid-flap
Rebellious

Night escapist

Slips out after dark. Expect a torchlit search and a very undignified carry home.

A cream coloured hen
Rare trait

Golden touch

The uncommon personalities are the valuable ones — real production advantages, including better Golden Egg odds.

A happy white hen

A profile for every bird

Level, rarity, personality, condition, egg history and lifetime production — every chicken keeps its own record. Feed them, hold them, pet them, calm them down. Close-range VR interaction is what makes them feel like pets instead of spreadsheet rows.

Loss is permanent

Chickens can be lost for good. That is the whole point: protecting the rare bird you spent weeks raising is a real responsibility, and the reason a bad night actually stings.

05 · Egg system

Every egg is a physical object

Pick them up, carry them, drop them, throw them, break them. Eggs come in three types and three sizes, and size affects selling price, hatchling rarity and how much damage a rotten one does.

Legendary

Golden Egg

The prestige collectible. The rarest hatchable ones can produce the ultimate pet: the Mythic Golden Chicken.

A large premium egg Premium size

Premium

The big ones. Higher selling price and better odds on the traits of whatever hatches.

A plain white egg Standard

Normal

Your daily income. With a rooster in the coop, normal eggs also have a chance to be hatchable.

A cracked, oozing rotten egg Spoiled

Rotten

Worthless — and contagious if stored badly. Excellent for throwing at things and creating a mess you have to clean.

Sorting is half the game

Eggs have to be collected, sorted, placed and stored in cartons by hand. Valuable eggs get sold, hatchable eggs go into incubators, and anything left near a spoiled egg is at risk.

Drop an egg and it breaks. That single rule gives even routine chores weight.

06 · The coop

A place you improve, not a screen you read

The coop gives you a clear read on the flock's condition, resources and productivity — but the important actions stay physical. You go in, you handle the birds, you check every nest one at a time.

Hands-on, always

Refilling reservoirs, drawing water from the well, restocking food, repairing equipment, arranging comfort items — the daily routine is built out of clear, satisfying physical interactions.

Petting and holding a chicken is not decoration either. It lowers stress, improves condition and builds affinity, which loops straight back into what ends up in the nest.

And when a frightened bird bolts out of the coop, nobody fixes it for you. You go find it, calm it down and carry it home.

07 · Day & night

Two very different shifts

Day

Maintain and improve

  • Draw water from the well and refill the reservoirs
  • Restock food and clean out the coop
  • Repair equipment and upgrade facilities
  • Once the chores are done, just hang out with the flock
Night

Protect and prepare

  • Track down runaway chickens in the dark
  • Rescue frightened birds and break up disputes
  • Guide the whole flock safely back inside
  • A well-managed night means healthier birds tomorrow

08 · Progression

Build the perfect flock

Phase one

Get a functional farm running and produce your very first Golden Egg. That first one can land on day one — it is partly luck, and that is the fun.

Phase two

Reinvest egg income into better feed, upgraded equipment, coop expansions and comfort items, then optimise the flock for volume and rarity.

Leaderboards

Farms are scored on the quantity, quality and rarity of what they produce — and individual chickens are ranked on lifetime performance of their own.

09 · After launch

Seasons, events and an expansion

Seasonal eggs

Christmas, New Year, Easter, Halloween, Day of the Dead and each of the four seasons — unique textures, decorations and collectibles.

Season events

Events are free for everyone, with an optional Premium Season Pass on the Meta Store for players who want the extra track.

A swirling pastel egg Expansion

Farming DLC

Plant, irrigate and harvest crops for higher-quality grain. Better feed, better flock, better odds — without invalidating base-game progress.

Made for the chaos clips

Chasing a runaway chicken at night, breaking up a flock dispute, rescuing a bird from somewhere it absolutely should not be — the unscripted moments are the ones people record. The game is designed to keep generating them.

10 · From the build

Work in progress

Straight out of the prototype

Captured in the current development build on Meta Quest. Art, UI and layout are all still moving — this is what the farm looks like today, not at launch.
