Finally got around to doing the platinum! Picked up the game in 2017 and absolutely loved it, got about halfway before life took over, had another stint in 2022, and now finally completed it challenge and all! Feeling pretty darn proud, not the easiest 100% but so worth it 💪

The first few panels seemed logical, this one just breaks my brain. I’ve already tried after waiting a few days, more than once. Can anyone explain this to me?

Like I said in my previous post, I'm having issues with >!The Challenge!<. Without even at the end, >!the music stopped itself and the puzzles are reset!<. I don't know why.

One of a kind niche project that I've been working on, on and off, for almost seven years. Has a built-in importer for The Windmill and covers almost all puzzle mechanics.

You can get it on Steam Workshop!

One of them even casts a pretty major shadow. Any idea why? Is there even a why? Or am I just being dumb and *too* analytical lmao, and there's nothing to care about here? It just definitely looks like there are blobs or spheres of some kind in the clouds

(Marked as potential spoiler because I genuinely don't know if it is or not xD)

As you can probably tell I’m struggling a bit with the wood paths in the bottom half, and I’m gonna turn the empty space beside the house into a park sitting area typa thing

Other ideas are welcome! I already have fruit trees planted in my greenhouse and I have a mod for like a basement for it where I’m keeping my kegs, so I only have two sheds for preserves jars and chests

Edit: okay y’all lay off the penis jokes 😭

Found while hiking on the Swiss Alps

Has anyone else ever gotten one like this before?

P.S. Unfortunately, I didn't attempt to finish this run for some reason, but I am still working hard to get through The Challenge.

Made a puzzle player in Wallpaper Engine. It allows you to play puzzles from The Windmill's library of community created puzzles. Also included are a solver (slow on polyomino puzzles) and a generator.

You can find the whole project on github: https://github.com/GemeinhardtZ/The-Witness-Puzzle-Player

It also have a desktop app that allows you to manually create your own puzzles and save it to a library, as well as more customized control on the generator. Though, note that the generator is still very much of a prototype.

I must admit that most of this is vibe coded using ChatGPT, but hopefully the end product is interesting.
