I remember Parodius 🐙 but I thought it was on the SNES.

I’d be happy. One less reason to wear a tie.

I asked Andrew @trifoil.bsky.social if his game is pronounced:
a) tree-foil
b) try-foil
c) tre-foil
d) aluminium-foil

🔸 ITST? is beautiful, fun and better played casually. It's a puzzle game for non-puzzle players: those inexperienced, wanting to be initiated or seeking to spend some time on a game that doesn't demand too much thinking.

🔸 The difficulty is low but the worst is that its curve is flat. I expected a challenge or a twist in the game mechanics at some point, but it never came. The way you solve levels at the beginning is the same as at the end, the only difference is the shapes' requests depending on the setting.

🔸 Each level consists on 4-5 rounds of arranging 'people', with some shapes remaining in the level, while others leave for new ones to arrive. Once everyone is sitting (also standing or laying down), the game will tell us if someone is unhappy, but it also lets us ignore that and move on.

🔸 The game is structured around 5 cities, 4 unique and 1 repeat, but they only affect the backstory and aren't really represented visually in the levels. Each city has 5-6 levels/scenarios, plus one extra unlockable, that are quite varied in general, from a bus to a cinema, a concert or a classroom.

🔶 Is this seat taken? (ITST?) is a logic game about arranging anthropomorphic shapes according to their needs/requests. One might be noisy, another needs silence, so don't put them together. The plot follows Nat at the start of her acting career, and serves as a link for the setting of the levels.

Don’t tell customers where the snowballs come from, just mention “local produce”.

I don't understand giving awards before the year ends...

Oh, mine is ~3 years old, too, but I had to upload an ID to be able to upload videos or I'd had been just a viewer. I thought is was mandatory for everyone.

I'm in Australia and from next week (I think) under 16s are banned from ALL social media/networks.

Are you in Australia? Is this because of the new law for under 16s?

I wish something like this was more common and engines had more depth than just “puzzles”.

Steam recommends me Hollow knight because I played Animal Well, and I’m like… 🤔 “how do I tell you?”.

🔸 Cipher Zero's proposition is good and a feast for your eyes and ears (don't play on mute!) like you see on puzzle games very rarely. If you like puzzle games in general, you'll enjoy it; if you specifically like logic puzzles, then it's a must.

🔸 That's all on the internal parts and mechanics of the game, but where Cipher Zero really excels for me is on the outside. It's gorgeous visually and musically, with a superb 'digital collage' aesthetic that resonates on the soundtrack, which evolves as you progress through the game.

🔸 Difficulty is progressive and based on the amount of symbols present at once. I found some hard levels preceding much easier ones, but I attribute that more to me serendipitously stumbling on the solution than poor playtesting or wrong level sorting. I could also be wrong.

🔸 Solving a level correctly grants access to the next, and there is no way to skip that. There's no clues system to aid you if stuck, or access to other levels to keep going. There are no tricks or hidden rules here, so it's a matter of 'keep trying' until you solve a hard one.

🔸 It is divided into 7 biomes (sceneries), each divided into 3-5 parts and each part containing 7~20 levels. TL;DR: there are hundreds (300+) of levels that never felt repetitive to me, thanks to the addition of new rules every now and then, or by mixing up previous ones, keeping up the challenge.
