Enjoyed this and looking forward to the full game. Has the same "you figure out the rules" vibe that I really enjoyed with Cipher Zero last year, with a distinct and elegant art style too.
The free demo for Clover's Quadrants is now live on Steam!!! Link in the replies.
The demo has 21 select puzzles from the first three chapters. Expect about an hour of playtime.

Just spent like 4 hours playing a game with absolutely no graphics or sound, for which I wrote ~2000 words of notes. (Love to show more, but spoilers!)
I’m talking about TYPE HELP, a very gripping detective game (I’d easily call it an ObraDinn-like).
Thanks for introducing me, @thinkygames.com!

Changing up my streaming schedule a bit! I don't think I can do two hours of Hollow Knight+Silksong as hours 7+8 for the week (instead of hours 4+5 like before) so I think I'll move HK to Tuesdays and instead make Thursdays for my think-y games!

This game about creating paths using reflections is like Monument Valley but is even more thinky!
Moving through mirrors to save my twin sister! (AiliA)
I had my eye on this game since it was selected for the Draknek New Voices grant, and was very glad to see people saying very positive things about its puzzles when it came out. In AiliA, you play as Ail in search of her twin sister Lia (see what they did there?) who is now trapped inside a mirror
