Piece by Piece turns puzzle-platformers into literal jigsaw games

Piece by Piece is a collection of tiny platform games by Neon Polygons set inside rearrangeable jigsaw pieces. You start as a little king trapped in a single piece; clicking another piece lets him move between them so long as no wall or obstacle blocks his path.

The game pushes the mechanic beyond simple left-to-right runs, asking you to juggle pieces to get past solid walls. Early tricks include falling vertically between pieces and snatching pieces away so the king lands on their bottom edge. The full game, due out March 13, expands that foundation with six new twists on the format, each offering their own challenges and combinations.

Characters introduce unique rules: an alien that makes portals only when pieces are connected, a drill-guy who burrows through rock, and a princess whose puzzles require aligning flat pieces rather than fitting tabs. The demo hops among those roles and includes 13 puzzles, giving a clear sense of how the different mechanics combine.
