I released a new puzzle book today. It's called Abdec. It contains 50 packing puzzles. You need to figure out all the rules by yourself. It's probably my most unapproachable game so far, so beware. I do hope some of you will enjoy its strange design. blazgracar.com/abdec

Seeing as I’ve been binging @menderbug’s pen-and-paper puzzles, I figured I’d try my hand at creating a puzzle inspired by their 6x6 series for my childhood favourite genre, Nurikabe! puzz.link/p?nurikabe/6/6/k61…

I've created an interactive timeline of the level design iteration of my puzzle game Linelith! You can view the level design at 32 points in time, plus annotations and additional information! cwpat.me/misc/linelith-level… I hope it's interesting and/or useful to you! :)

I am working on a digital adaptation of the wonderful LOK paper puzzle book made by Letibus design, alongside its original designer! It's a very cute and seemingly simple puzzle game about language and discovery. Please wishlist on Steam! #indiegames #gamedev #puzzle
