Pip Puzzle is a vibrant and competitive 2D action-puzzle game where players strategically manipulate gems to outwit their opponents. The core gameplay revolves around using unique character abilities to either collect gems, smash through layers, or directly attack opponents by dropping balls on them.
Players can also employ more devious tactics, like temporarily disabling an opponent's gems by turning them monochrome.
The game promises a dynamic experience, with both the visuals and music evolving as players progress through stages. Environments transform dramatically, from icy excavation sites flooding with lava to foggy dystopian cityscapes and even scrapyards in space.
This visual and auditory evolution adds a unique layer to the strategic depth.
Pip Puzzle supports both single-player and multi-player modes, including online PvP matchmaking. This allows players to test their skills against friends or make new rivals.
The description hints at a cast of distinct characters, including a 'bad-mannered witch with even worse-mannered hair,' suggesting a cast with unique personalities and potentially varied gameplay styles.
Developed by Third Wheel Dev and Beny, and published by Third Wheel Games and Squishy, Pip Puzzle is set to offer a fresh take on the competitive puzzle genre. While a release date is not yet specified, its 'Coming Soon' status on Steam indicates active development.
The game is designed for players who enjoy strategic thinking, quick reflexes, and a bit of friendly (or not-so-friendly) competition.
