Concept art of Minimal Move!
Minimal Move is a cooperative puzzle game in 3D! But here is our concept art in 2D!
There will be 7 worlds for the main story of the game.
The main characters, Kaiten and Ido as the space investigators, land in a wonder cubic world, where they attempt to discover the truth about the planet!
Each world will have different types of blocks for new ways of playing the puzzle. You can gradually develop your skills step by step.
Today, we introduce you the first three worlds with the 2D art! You can already try these 3 worlds on Steam! Try the demo now!
Which world is your favorite? Please leave your comment below and let us know!
And don't forget to add Minimal Move on your wishlist!
OASIS WORLD
This is the very first world when you enter Minimal Move! It’s relatively safe and simple but be careful of cactus. Kaiten and Ido have arrived in this world, now discover how to play with you and your friend!
LAVA WORLD
It’s pretty hot here in Lava World! Watch out for your feet because the lava cube can burn you! The guard of this world, Flamin, will try to block your way.
LUNAR WORLD
The sky gets darker here in Lunar World... The jumper cube can transfer you to another jumper cube. Also, be careful because the robot Beaman is trying to heat up the blocks with his laser beam to catch you!
