Toolkit: Tools that spark play

Tiny editors, live playtests, and modular UI blocks let designers iterate in minutes and gather player signals without infrastructure overhead.

Rapid prototyping

Build levels with drag-and-drop actors, tweak physics, and instantly share a playable link for quick reactions.

Player hooks

HUD badges, micro quests, and on-screen cues encourage short session loops and meaningful feedback.

Snapshots from the lab: prototypes, cover art, and level thumbnails. Tap any to load a sandbox preview.
