No don't worry, it left a mark 😂

Hey Daniel, I appreciate that! I'd be eager to watch your stream if I can.

Length will vary per person depending on puzzle solving pace, but yes I tend to estimate it at 3 – 4 hours. Though secrets and whatnot might extend that further!

I just received the music for the game's finale and can't stop listening to it – imagining the cutscenes and player experience is giving me goosebumps.

More kind words in this Chinese (google translated) article:

Thanks for the kind words and mentioning The Button Effect in your article! :)

Oeuf on Steam 3D physics-platformer where you are an egg! Roll, hop and slide your way back home.

It seems that not everyone has seen, heard, touched, tasted, or smelled the sublime witnesslike Sensorium. store.steampowered.com/app/1307870/... (by the @rbdjellyfish.bsky.social )

Very neat! Didn't know about the purple goat game but found it :)

The color wheel meme, filled with drawings of eight different puzzle games: Stephen's Sausage Roll (Red), Portal (Orange), A Monster's Expedition (Yellow), Superliminal (Green), Manifold Garden (Cyan) Snakebird (Blue), Escape Goat (Purple), and The Witness (Magenta)

Figured I'd make a pinned post that covers both the fact that I am an artist and that I'm very interested in indies and puzzle games.

I also have a Steam curator page (which I should update more), in case anybody has overlapping interests

If you're making a puzzle game (or adjacent genre) or enjoy playing them, we have a Discord community for you. It's called NoClue💡 and it's all about giving support to devs, content creators, helping players find their new obsession and much more.

Have a look! 👇

Another day, another puzzle polished up!

Yes! This should work:

That'd be very helpful :)

We're live, it's a puzzle night!

We're playing the demo for The Button Effect by @frycandle.bsky.social, followed by some #TR-49 by @inkle.co!

Thank you Steve! I'll take note, I should probably prompt the zoom sooner on Steam Deck and controllers. Working on adding reduced walk/look speeds when zooming in to help with aiming too :)

Thanks a lot, very kind! :)

Are you open to short-form? I'm a solo dev working on The Button Effect, I have a page/demo up on Steam :)

It's inspired by some of the games you mentioned – especially The Witness
