Lovely tidying game A Little To The Left has added a skip puzzle feature because of an article we done
I’ve long been excited about the possibilities offered by upcoming tidying things up nicely game A Little To The Left, and back in May this year Alice0 (one of us is RPS’s Mirror Universe Alice, but nobody knows which) finally had a crack at it. The way she wanted to organise keys wasn’t what the game thought was the right way, and her article examined this frustration; she described the canonical correct solution as being that of a “domestic Joker”.
The developers at Max Inferno Studios read this article and decided that, you know what? Alice0 was on to something. They contacted us to let us know that her piece was the inspiration for adding a feature called Let It Be, a skip puzzle function that you can access at any time. Anne Macmillan, who’s a co-founder of Max Inferno Studios as well as artist and animator for A Little To The Left, was kind enough to talk to me about it.
