Endigest AI Core Summary
Lykke Studios details the meticulous design approach behind puffies., a tactile puzzle game with 4,000 physics-based stickers.
•All 4,000 stickers are 3D models governed by physics simulation, with hand-drawn cutouts rather than automated tracing
•The team spent months perfecting micro-interactions: haptic feedback, snap distances tuned to the pixel, and sticker-on-sticker collision physics
•Comprehensive accessibility features include customizable snap distances, sticker-placement outlines, and finger-offset options for reduced motor function
•Puzzle levels are hand-designed with no algorithms; difficulty depends on sticker pack size and camera adapts for smaller screens
•The studio's Thailand base enables unhurried iteration prioritizing craft and feel over rigid development schedules
