About this game
Connect objects with magic thread
Weaver has the magic ability to bind the properties of objects together. When one property changes, any connected properties will change along with it. Use this to your advantage to solve hundreds of unique puzzles and traverse the world in new ways.
Write your own laws of physics
Besides jumping on enemies and pushing boxes, Weaver has the ability to make connections of her own. Break the rules that govern a conventional platformer:
Fling yourself across large gaps.
Build your own midair dash.
Walk on air.
Move without moving.
Become invincible.
Unravel the mystery behind a forgotten city
Meet the colorful characters that have taken up residence there, making friends (and enemies) along the way. Master your magical craft and search for well-hidden secrets. Help Weaver find herself in a city that can no longer change.
