eat stuf get fat — The basic loop
About
OverviewEat Stuf Get Fat is a PvP game where you eat food to grow bigger, then hunt down smaller players while dodging ones that can eat you. It plays like agar.io — the fatter you are, the more dangerous you become. This guide covers the core loop, splitting and merging, survival tactics, and the five badges worth chasing.

The basic loop
Step
You spawn small at the start of every session. Your fatness number, shown on screen, determines what you can and cannot eat. Any player with less fat than you is fair game. Any player with more fat is a threat you need to avoid.
- Eat food pick up everything on the map to build your fatness.
- Chase smaller players move into players who have less fat than you to eat them.
- Dodge bigger players if someone larger is closing in, break off and head for open space.
Splitting and merging
Table
Both actions require at least 50 fat — below that threshold, neither key does anything. Splitting sends you into two separate clones you control at once. Merging brings those clones back together into one larger mass.
| Split (E key) | divides you into two clones. |
| Merge (Q key) | reunites your clones into one body. |
| Fat requirement | both actions are locked out if your fat is below 50. |
Surviving against bigger players
Tips
Sessions hold up to six players, so the map can get crowded fast. Staying near the map's edges and corners makes it harder for a bigger player to surround you.
- Head to the corners and edges when you are being chased — a larger player has fewer angles to cut you off there.
- Keep a mental note of where food is clustered so you can farm it without wandering into open, dangerous ground.
The five badges
CheckFatness resets at the end of every session, so badge milestones are the only progress that carries over permanently.
- Eat something eat any food once.
- Rebirth rebirth at least once; this badge tracks the rebirth, not your fatness.
- Fat reach 500 fatness.
- Very Fat reach 2,500 fatness.
- Jay reach 5,000 fatness.
Glossary
Glossary- Fat
- The number that represents your current size; it grows as you eat food or other players and resets to zero when the session ends.
- Split
- Pressing E when you have 50 or more fat divides you into two clones that you control simultaneously.
- Merge
- Pressing Q when you have 50 or more fat combines your two split clones back into one body.
- Rebirth
- What the game calls the act of resetting and respawning; it also names the badge you earn for doing it.
Common questions
FAQDoes my fat carry over between sessions?
No — fat resets to zero every time a session ends or you respawn. You start small again each time. Only your badges are saved permanently.
When can I split and merge?
You need at least 50 fat for either action. If you are below that number, pressing E or Q does nothing.
How do I reach 5,000 fatness for the Jay badge?
Eat food to build your fatness and eat players who have less fat than you. Stay near the map edges to avoid getting cornered by players bigger than you.
