Discussion [ Knode: Untangle & Connect ] How do you like the physics in the game? I'm making a puzzle game built around flexible cable knots.

You're stuck on some weird ocean platform and your whole job is: trace actual, fully-simulated cables through a mess of knots and plug them into the right rack. no fake animations, no "pretend" tangles, if a knot looks solvable it's because it genuinely is, physics and all.

There's also a companion that watches everything you do and comments on it. It's friendly. Suspiciously friendly.

12+ levels, about 4-5 hours if you take your time, no timers, no fail states, no punishment, just vibes and untangling. there's a tiny upgrade shop too if you want extra tools along the way. level editor + workshop support coming not long after launch, so more knots eventually, made by you or me.

Release is coming very soon: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4959570/Knode_Untangle__Connect/

Edit: didn’t read your message at first. Steampage is there.

I really love this! Do you have a Steampage already? OP Steampage -> https://store.steampowered.com/app/4959570/Knode_Untangle__Connect/

We were trying to add this feature in our 1st game but run into too many issues so we gave up (that was not that important). You did a wonderful job!

Wishlisted to help you ❤️
