About this game
I set out to make a puzzle game but I kept adding more and more stuff I like until this popped out.
I'm not really a story or lore kinda guy, so there's none of that here. You're just a little round guy exploring a colourful world, solving 81 logic puzzles across 9 interconnected zones, collecting stuff, and unlocking new abilities as you go.
It's puzzle-first, but there's plenty to do between puzzles too. Navigate the entire world seamlessly with no loading screens - lots to explore and a few secrets to find if you're the curious type.
If you like:
Puzzles
Platforming
Collecting stuff
Getting upgrades
Finding Secrets
Then you might like this.
I hope you do, but if not, thanks for checking it out anyway!

Thanks again for the continued feedback and bug reports! Here's what's been addressed: - Fixed an issue where the jump upgrade was granting double jump due to a coyote time bug - Fixed a softlock where quitting and reloading inside the final puzzle would permanently remove jump abilities - Added a restore failsafe for players currently affected by the above softlock - Redirected a hidden teleporter's exit destination to the hub's first zone teleport.

First Patch - March 4th 2026
First of all, I'd like to thank everyone for their feedback! It's clear I missed a few things while testing. Fixes: I have fixed the soft-locks in zones 8 and 9. I gave coyote time a healthy bump and increased the friction on the ground to hopefully address some of the slipperiness issues. You can now collect all orbs in zone 9. Again, thank you all for playing. If you find any other issues, please report them on the forums and I'll get to them as fast as I can!Read full article on Community Announcements (travisisgood)AnnouncementsOfficial
