I'm building a Rusty Lake inspired surreal puzzle game set in a desert hot spring resort. What do you think? [demo available]

Hi, everyone! I'm a solo developer working on a surreal eerie puzzle game inspired by Rusty Lake. Checkout the Steam page and the demo (also on itch.io) if you are interested.

Rattle Spring is a surreal, eerie, point-and-click puzzle game inspired by Rusty Lake. When your cousin vanishes from her family’s desert health resort, you must adventure into unsettling spaces, cryptic characters, and generational trauma to solve the interconnected puzzles and uncover the truth.

I made a Sokoban-style puzzle where you push and pull magnets. Is the rule easy to understand?

Hi! I've been working on a small puzzle game, and I'd love some opinions from puzzle fans.

The idea is simple. You are a magnet that can switch between N and S.

  • Same poles: you can push, but you can't stick together.
  • Opposite poles: you can pull, but you can't push.

I'm curious about two things:

  1. Can you understand the rule just from the GIFs?
  2. Does the pull mechanic feel new, or does it remind you of other games?

If you want to try it, there's a free browser demo with 20 levels:

Any feedback is welcome, even harsh ones!
