HomeNaut

It's a great puzzle platformer with lots of content. The game is very well designed. Each level is just a tiny bit more challenging than the last which creates a very smooth difficulty curve and satisfying game flow.

Very fun mouse game! The last ~1/6th of the levels have a decent amount of precision platforming, so watch out.

I've been playing puzzle games of all kinds ever since I remember being alive so I'd say I usually solve them pretty quickly, even then HomeNaut has a very unique mechanic that surprised me a lot by how well and original it was used in creating the puzzle designs in most of the levels. It's also at a extremely good price for what took me 3.5 hours to beat. Parabens aos devs!

HomeNaut, developed and published by Origami Sword, is a compact yet thoughtfully designed puzzle-platformer that revolves around gravity manipulation and spatial reasoning. Framed around a small mouse adventurer navigating oversized household environments, the game combines charming pixel-art visuals with tightly constructed levels that steadily increase in complexity. While its premise is simple—a tiny explorer journeying through intricate interiors toward a whimsical goal—the mechanics beneath that premise create a surprisingly layered and mentally engaging experience. The defining feature of HomeNaut is its gravity-shifting mechanic. Rather than limiting players to traditional left-to-right platforming, the game allows the protagonist to alter the direction of gravity, effectively transforming floors into walls and ceilings into pathways. This mechanic fundamentally reshapes how players perceive each level. What initially appears to be an unreachable ledge may become accessible through a carefully timed gravity flip, and hazards that once blocked progress may suddenly be avoidable. The result is a puzzle-driven experience where spatial awareness and experimentation are more im…

A fun mouse game (that's mouse as in house mouse, not computer mouse) that gives your brain a workout as you make your way through the gravity well! Grab it if you can!

The changing gravity component is executed really well in this nice puzzle platformer. The game's difficulty level is well balanced: some puzzles make you think a lot, and everything has felt doable. And I appreciate the extra collectibles in case you want the extra challenge. So far, I am enjoying it! Here's my first impressions: https://youtu.be/Sw68eejcxw4
