This game really is that good no joke. I haven't gone back to 100% the stars but its consistently an awe inspiring game to navigate and solce.

For the amount of glazing people give big games about the joy of exploration and discovery, few game experiences have offered as pure a distillation of that to me. As I explore puzzles get recontextualized, blocks and way to interact with those blocks are discovered, you just make connections

I'm so close to finishing Isles of Sea and Sky. I cannot remember the last time a game had its hooks so deep into my brain. Y'all need to play it. store.steampowered.com/app/1233070/... @cicadagames.bsky.social knocked it far out of the park on this one.

My top 3 puzzles definitely are 1. Shells - Tidal Reef 2. Birds/Dragonflies- Frozen Spire/Tidal Reef 3. Guardians - Raging Volcano
Finally figured out the shell puzzle on Tidal Reef in @cicadagames.bsky.social's Isles of Sea and Sky. Top tier puzzle. Best one on that island. Raging Volcano had the best overall puzzles for sure, but this one was damned fun to figure out. Can't believe I figure it out sooner.

7. Frog Detective What if you want more frog content, but aren't too keen on FPS? Hop to the Frog Detective games, they're short little mysteries that are consistently witty and full of hilarious characters. Start here, and if you enjoy it? The sequels are even better.

8. Cryptmaster Oldschool dungeon crawler where you type words to do actions and cast spells in combat, filled with neat puzzles and riddles, ridiculous and extremely well voiced characters, and the Cryptmaster himself who is a dry, sardonic delight. There's even a card battling minigame!

SAY ANYTHING in this bizarre dungeon adventure where words control everything. Fill in the blanks with text or voice to uncover lost abilities, embark on strange quests, and solve mindbending riddles....

36. Isles of Sea & Sky It's a block pushing puzzle game, it is at the same time simple but oh so much more, as the core block pushing never really changes, but gets expanded upon in so many neat and novel ways. It's an astonishingly captivating, and at times head melting, game.

Been playing this almost 10 hours in total now, and I gotta say this game rules. It's filled with clever, interconnected puzzles. Highly recommended for puzzle sickos.

I have no words for how thankful I am to people who evangelize my game. And I am always ecstatic to hear when it resonated so well with someone. This type of thing really keeps me going.

Odd little fun fact, but the MC in Isles of Sea and Sky is programmatically also a block lol. The player object is a child of the parent block object. This was very useful in many instances where the player needed to move or be pushed as blocks do. #gamedev #indiegames

From my Steam review: "[Isles of Sea and Sky] is a masterclass in game design, and the best puzzle/adventure game I've played in years. Highly recommended."

I'm making a game where the enemy is a soulless corpo real estate company that is trying to forcefully remodel and sell your home. I made the aesthetic of their shitty interiors before all this stuff with Wendy's destroying itself happened... Looks like I nailed the vibe lol... #indiegame #gamedev
