It's been... a while...
Wow, it has been a year and a half since our last blog post. Our biggest gap yet 🛹
A lot has happened in that time, and we are excited to update you with this blog post and one coming next month.
Witness a Spectacle!
Last year we announced our next game, Spectacle. A surreal first-person puzzle game about observation, spatial reasoning, and lizards. The core mechanics of Spectacle revolve around blinking, winking, and wearing special glasses that transform how you interact with the world.
Enter the surreal and mind-bending world of Spectacle – a new first-person puzzle game 👁

Play Today!
We are happy to announce that you can play a demo version of Spectacle TODAY! We have been selected to show Spectacle alongside many other great puzzle games during the Cerebral Puzzle Showcase presented by Draknek & Friends.
The event runs from May 23rd until May 30th, don't miss it!
You get to play the tutorial sequence, and at the end, you will get a sneak peek of the ‘first proper level’ of the full game. Take control of Glo, a newly hatched lizard who learns about the world of Trip Space while you explore the surreal world of Spectacle and engage with its puzzles.
A new way to perceive puzzles
Spectacle offers a novel puzzle solving experience with unique mechanics and controls. The game began life as an exploration of tele-rotating the player in 3D space with a “match cut” and continued to grow from there.
A lot has changed since then and I’m so happy to finally be sharing Spectacle publicly. I hope that players have as much fun playing it as we did making it.
Tell us what you think!
The HPY Discord is slowly growing. If you aren’t already a member of our little community, we would love to have you join and share your experiences with the Spectacle Demo. We are gearing up to announce something new soon and our Discord Server is the best way to stay up to date.
