As a newly born Debug AI, set out on a great adventure with your chatty Navi AI companion to repair the “Heart Bugs” spreading throughout the digital world.
---What kind of game is it?---
【A Digital World Adventure】
The story takes place in a digital world inhabited by AIs with hearts.
As a newly created Debug AI, you explore this world together with a Navigator AI who provides hints and guidance along the way.
【Programming Puzzles】
When you enter various electronic devices, their inner systems turn into circuit-like puzzles.
The key feature of these puzzles is that connecting code changes how the system behaves.
Send electricity, generate wind, create bombs, and more—
experience the fun of programming in an intuitive and hands-on way!
【Puzzle-Based Boss Battles】

What you choose to do with their hearts is up to you…
Your decisions shape the outcome in a branching story where fate changes with your choices.

“Re:Connect” Has Been Selected for TGS 2026's “SELECTED INDIE 80” [DevLog #1]
Hi, I'm Mapyon, the developer of Re:Connect at Studio Wink. Starting this week, I'll be posting a devlog here every week. First, some news: Re:Connect has been selected for SELECTED INDIE 80 at Tokyo Game Show 2026. You can play it at Makuhari Messe, Japan, from September 17 to 21! What is Re:Connect?If emotions can be programmed, can we call that a heart? Re:Connect is a programming puzzle adventure where you connect cords to change the rules. You play as a newborn Debug AI: push and pull units, run power cords, and wire rules like "stop", "rotate" or "vanish" onto objects. Unplug a cord and the rule disappears. Plug it in somewhere else, and the unit's rule itself changes. The bugs you're fixing turn out to be "bugs in the heart" of the AIs around you. To fix one, you step inside an AI's heart and rewire it yourself, choosing which emotions stay. Some of those choices can't be undone. Japanese press called our demo "a puzzle Undertale". SELECTED INDIE 80 at TGS2026SELECTED INDIE 80 is TGS's program that invites 80 indie games, chosen from more than 1,500 entries, to exhibit for free. Last year we showed Re:Connect in a corner of the iGi incubator booth. This year we have a booth of our own. Dates: September 17–21, 2026 (business days 17–18, public days 19–21) Venue: Makuhari Messe, Halls 9–11 Esplanade (2F) Booth: E-02 Demo: from the opening to the first boss (about 12 minutes) Next week: TGS reportAlongside TGS prep, this week I added items and text and tuned the mini-games. Next time, I'll share a report from the show. Coming to TGS? Tell me which day in the comments! If you can't make it to Makuhari, wishlist Re:Connect and Steam will let you know when it launches.Read full article on Community Announcements (StudioWink)AnnouncementsOfficial
