The worlds are designed to be very interesting with bright colors and many art assets to appreciate.  The player wants to explore just to see all the art hidden around the landscape.

Venture through unique and interesting landscapes!

The final tower level consists of a tower that is full of spinning deadly gears.  The level is designed to look very difficult and chaotic to the player, but still give the player enough direction to get all the way to the top.

Climb the imposing tower in which an evil wizard resides!

Regrowth

In a colorless world, how bright are your decisions?

Solving puzzles in ways that harm the environment causes the world to lose its color.

Environmental harm leads to a colorless world

The player has six unique plants to solve puzzles with. Some will cause the world to grow brighter and some will make the world grow dull.  Example: the gear plant can be used to fix the clock, or the fire plant can be used to burn it down.

Unique mechanics for each of the six plants

First screen. The player can drain the river, or plant a spring seed and jump over it.

The Grand Adventure of Elroy the Unipus

Elroy lost seven of his tentacles! Now he must decide who will help him on his quest for revenge!

On his adventure, Elroy encounters 3 bosses, each of which is very unique and interesting.  Most players enjoy the boss fights very much and say they are very memorable.

Memorable, epic, intense boss fights!

Mindy, a snail that could fall in love with Elroy, tells Elroy to not eat any crabs.  However, eating crabs is very helpful gameplay-wise.  This disconnect of gameplay and story is on purpose to test if the story of the game affects a player's actions.

Characters tell Elroy to do things that make the game harder.

There are several types of enemies and objects the player can interact with.  Each is unique and presents a different type of puzzle using the same mechanics.  Also in this image, you can see that Elroy can eat fish to grow his tentacles back.

Face many enemies! Solve multiple Puzzles!

Color Blaster!

Use 7 different types of pieces to destroy all the enemies!

To be able to solve the more difficult puzzles, the player must know how colors interact and plan ahead.

Complicated puzzles require planning ahead!
