Stuffo the Puzzle Bot is an upcoming puzzle-platformer from Antti Tiihonen who's worked previously on titles like Legend of Grimrock and Noita. The game was recently confirmed to be launching on both PC (Steam) and iOS sometime in the first half of 2023. Just a few short months from now you can look forward to helping Stuffo find their way out of a series of “approachable yet smart” puzzles.
The game sports a low-resolution pixel art aesthetic, and the trailer shows off a little of the advertised downtempo-beats soundtrack, a nice contemporary touch that lends it a pretty unique vibe among puzzle games. Gameplay in Stuffo looks to consist primarily of navigating levels while carrying around boxes and box-shaped mechanisms, connecting objects via dangling wires or beams, and making use of sci-fi teleporters. I like the compact scale of the levels previewed in the trailer.
The game's Steam page emphasizes that the game will be a laid-back puzzling experience you can play at your own pace. When you see the words “cognitive” and “logical” in the description, you can bet that this will be a properly thinky adventure.
