Our take on Unforgiving Happiness
Its defining structure is a color-matching puzzle loop inside a platformer: batteries must be connected to matching colors before their energy can be collected.
What is Unforgiving Happiness?
Unforgiving Happiness is a puzzle-platformer built around connecting batteries to matching colors and collecting the resulting energy.
Levels become more difficult as progression continues, with movement based on pushing, pulling, jumping, and grabbing. A Gravity Gun adds another interaction to the puzzle-solving toolkit. The game includes 40 levels and 43 achievements, with each level containing an achievement linked to a small puzzle; some achievements are hidden. Alongside the gameplay, it presents a story about an independent developer balancing a full-time job with the pursuit of a dream, with the events shifted into a future setting. The soundtrack contains more than 12 tracks.
