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.
