Puzzlefox - Rufus Wray (13)
A puzzle game with 3 difficulties increasing the complexity of the puzzle, set on a large puzzlebox which constantly changes, where a mysterious fox must try to leave the cube dimension before the 15 minute timer elapses and the dimension collapses!
Partially due to the clear and simple mechanics, Puzzlefox is unique, as with most puzzle games, you’ll find there are always over-complicated levels and checkpoints, however mine has just the puzzlebox, detailed and full of many secrets. You may think surely 15 minutes won't be long enough? However, due to its challenging difficulty, players are bound to lose several times, easily 5 or more, giving the game more length. While this may seem annoying, the puzzlebox will be designed so there are many ways to get everywhere, allowing for the players to experience lots of variety in content and not get bored as they discover new hidden shortcuts and items they previously missed. This allows for people to form great speedrunning tactics, and when the player retries after inevitably losing, they will manage to progress even further as they have built up strategies and remembered what they did previously, allowing for a very satisfying experience.
