Description

Arby is a minimalist 2D indie platformer where you control multiple lovable squares at once. Every jump, fall, and wall-bounce moves them both simultaneously—turning familiar platformer challenges into clever, brain-bending puzzles. Master mirrored movement, dodge deadly saws, and rethink everything you know about precision platforming in this charming twist on a classic genre.

My Role

Born from the happy accident of placing two characters in a single platforming level, Arby began as one of my first ever game development projects over a decade ago. I worked on it sporadically as a side project for several years, bringing early versions to various gaming conventions where I saw players genuinely enjoy it—often playing longer than average for a convention booth.

Eventually, life got in the way, and I shelved the project for over five years. Now, armed with a decade of professional development experience, I’ve returned to finish what I started. As the sole developer, my goal was always to make Arby a minimalist yet fun puzzle game. With valuable community feedback and the addition of player tools like a level editor, I was finally able to package up the game and release it as my second solo project.
