History

Bugs are Features

Betty & Earl began as any other puzzle game might, with the goal of moving the player character to some goal. Only there was a bug that caused the goal to move whenever the player moved. Betty & Earl was born!

Cosmic Revelations, Eyeballs

Partway through development, a philosophical/spiritual component began to appear, which justified the use of all those eyeballs, and derailed the project for years.

A Baby is Formed

Towards the end of development, Matt & wife Jamie decided to grow their connections and have a baby, which inspiried the babies and toddlers in the "Spring" zone of the game, and derailed the project for years.

Features

  • Beautiful, original art and direction from the incredibly skilled @helveticablanc
  • Over a hundred thoughtful, bite-sized puzzles that delight instead of frustrate
  • For some reason, Toki Pona, a language with only 120 words, created by Sonja Lang
