Description

Splitter Critters is an award-winning freeform puzzle game that puts world-splitting power into your hands. Split and rearrange the world to bring faraway platforms together, move deadly lasers out of the way, and create floating swimming pools to guide alien critters back to their spaceship.

History

Splitter Critters was originally built for the 35th Ludum Dare game jam where the theme was Shapeshift. After seeing its potential we began working on a finished version immediately. The game was initially released on January 25th 2017 for iOS and February 8th on Android.
