GLOAMSHOT · Every Shot Moves the Shooter
GLOAMSHOT is an original portrait-first deterministic recoil-bloom puzzle. The living Sower fires a flare North, East, South or West. The ray travels in the chosen direction while the Sower moves exactly one open cell in the opposite direction. Every command therefore authors two coupled paths: what the flare changes and where its shooter must land.
COUNTERCROWN · Every Blow Moves the Prize
COUNTERCROWN is a standalone portrait-first fine-pixel court brawler built around one conserved-impact law. A successful blow pushes its target with the attack while the one physical Crown moves exactly one square against it. Hostile blows use the same interpreter. Victory is not damage: dock the Crown on the moon dais before the public bell closes.
LOCOMANTLE: The Factory Moves or Dies
A standalone Minecraft-inspired moving-factory defense game. Route a physical locomotive across an eight-station rail graph; every departure advances material exactly one wagon: Hopper → Crusher → Foundry → Lead Works. Press rail for Ironspan, recouple an Arsenal for automatic defense, and use the Rivet Rig to make the train repair itself.
SCARWIND · Every Clean Pass Moves the Static
SCARWIND is an original portrait-first analog restoration puzzle. Three cassettes share one motor. Every pulse moves every unclamped magnetic scar one frame in the cassette's mounted direction; one physical clamp can hold one tape. Each cassette publishes a single safe waste-leader edge. A case succeeds only when every scar exits through its own leader before motor heat crosses the disclosed limit.
FLAGBOUND: Every Carrier Moves the Front
An original deterministic fine-pixel capture-the-flag relay. Swift and Ward infiltrate a physical eleven-cell front against Raider and Sentry. Both flags retain home, carried or dropped state, an exact position and an optional carrier. Tags consume guard or reset the tagged runner while dropping any carried flag onto the real field. Stepping onto a dropped friendly standard returns it; stepping onto an enemy standard carries it. A capture is legal only when the enemy flag crosses home while the team's own flag is home.
DUSTLITANY · Every Stroke Moves the Whole Line
An original portrait-first conservation puzzle. Swipe across any mosaic cell: every loose residue in that row or column compresses toward the stroke. A residue leaves the artifact only when the leading piece matches the collector at that edge. Every effective stroke rotates every collector to its next material, so routing and timing are one decision.
TILTLOOT: Every Prize Moves the House
TILTLOOT is a portrait-first papercraft balance-heist puzzle. Guide Wren, a tiny silk-moth courier, through a hanging house where the player, held loot, loose prizes, pinned heirlooms and basketed prizes all keep physical mass.
SPARSHIFT · Every Leap Moves the Launch
SPARSHIFT is an original portrait-first recoil-platform precision puzzle. Pip Vane leaps forward across the broken High Aviary while the spar beneath her feet moves in the exact opposite direction. The body route and the abandoned world's route are one indivisible action.
AFTERCAST · The Spell Moves. The Silence Stays.
AFTERCAST is an original portrait-first three-body raid puzzle. Rook, Vesper and Serein each hold one physical rite. Invoke one ready bearer: the cast rite trades hands with the next hero clockwise, while its one-beat Aftercast stays on the original body and locks the newly received rite. The boss then performs its current public intent.
BELLWRAITH · Every Rest Moves the Dead
A complete portrait-first fine-pixel rhythm tactics game. Compose four public beats, then conduct them across a three-lane funeral bridge. Toll spends two Resonance to strike the nearest shade. Chime spends one to pierce its full lane. Rest restores two Resonance and raises one Ward—but every Pall Bearer follows silence.
Bridgebell: Every Opening Moves Two Queues Remix
A portrait-first fine-pixel bridge-operator strategy. One bascule span serves
MIGRAWARD · Every Reading Moves the Sickness
An original portrait-first moving-target deduction game. Six impossible creatures arrive at a night veterinary ward. Every instrument gives a truthful binary reading over its visibly marked anatomy chambers, then moves the hidden anomaly along a published direction. The player must update the possible-position set, follow the migration, and seal the exact chamber.
FAUNAWARD: The Biome Moves First
FAUNAWARD is a standalone functional-creature ecology tactics game. The player never steers an animal. Select a cell, place one public environmental cue, and every creature executes its written priority in a fixed order. Seven authored habitat contracts require exact mutualisms before the deadline, disturbance limit, or unguarded predation invalidates the field.
MIGRAWARD · Every Reading Moves the Sickness
An original portrait-first moving-target deduction game. Six impossible creatures arrive at a night veterinary ward. Every instrument gives a truthful binary reading over its visibly marked anatomy chambers, then moves the hidden anomaly along a published direction. The player must update the possible-position set, follow the migration, and seal the exact chamber.
DUSTLITANY · Every Stroke Moves the Whole Line
An original portrait-first conservation puzzle. Swipe across any mosaic cell: every loose residue in that row or column compresses toward the stroke. A residue leaves the artifact only when the leading piece matches the collector at that edge. Every effective stroke rotates every collector to its next material, so routing and timing are one decision.
KEYWARD: Every Cut Moves the Pins
An original deterministic fine-pixel locksmith work simulation. A key blank starts at depth zero across four to seven teeth. Filing permanently increases one selected depth. Brushing clears physical burrs. Torque inserts the current profile into standard, spool, shielded and master-wafer pin stacks and records shear, binding, void and scratch evidence.
PARALLAX HOUSE
**Every Window Moves a Room** is a portrait-first spatial projection puzzle about sliding three depth panes until cloud bridges, architecture and garden rails become one walkable path.
LASTSEAT: Every Bell Moves the Crowd
LASTSEAT is a deterministic musical-chairs party survival game. Each public action moves Mara and advances every active Bot one clockwise mark. On the third beat, the Bell assigns every physical chair by circular distance; Mara must land exactly on a published chair to displace one rival.
DIAMONDCALL: One Sign Moves Every Runner
DIAMONDCALL is an original five-inning shared-signal baseball relay tactic. A pitch is already on the way. Pull, Center or Push contact publishes a physical landing and the defense's complete base-return schedule. After the bat, every `GO` or `HOLD` reaches every live runner while the ball advances exactly one relay beat.
Parallax Post
A portrait-first coupled-orrery puzzle. Rotate local, transit, and deep-space address rings; each gear ratio moves more than one sky layer. Deliver six increasingly difficult celestial letters before calibration runs out.
ROOMSHIFT: Every Service Moves the Hotel
ROOMSHIFT is a deterministic hotel-service and sliding-room puzzle. Nine named room entities own furniture, door masks and occupants. Bellhop can cross only mutually open seams; every completed service slides that room row and carries everyone inside to a new physical coordinate.
PAINWARD · Every Cure Moves the Wound
PAINWARD is an original portrait-first tactical puzzle about conserved harm. Before every enemy strike, the Saint must pass exactly one wound between adjacent members of a four-hero covenant. Pain matching its bearer's sigil powers the party's automatic answer; pain beyond a bearer's visible heart capacity breaks the covenant.
AQUELLE · The Last Drop Moves the First
AQUELLE is a standalone portrait-first water-marbling strategy game. Seven named ink spirits enter a circular bath through one-use spouts. Every new arrival physically pushes and curls every elder spirit according to that elder's stable flow law. Keep all identities inside the waterline and finish each one over its own flower seal.
Tidemark Harbor · Every Departure Moves Dawn
A self-contained portrait sliding-block puzzle rendered as an illustrated harbor chart. Drag each vessel only along its keel, untangle the fleet, and release the gold Dawn Ferry through the eastern gate across eight solver-verified charts. Shortest solutions rise deliberately from 2 moves to 12 across the campaign.
