I FORGOR

oops. did you mean to do that?

I FORGOR is a monochrome arcade puzzle game about a ball, dominoes, and the increasingly questionable decisions you make under a 20-second timer.

Match pip values to activate domino halves, inherit new values, and clear a path to the exit. Every match changes what you can do next. Every mistake costs time. With five passages that demand progressively more from you, getting out is less about memorising a route and more about figuring out what to do with what you have.

How to Play

  • Move with WASD or the arrow keys. Hold a direction to build speed and release to slow down.
  • Your ball has a pip value. Match it with a domino half to activate and consume that half.
  • Each successful match gives you the other half's value, changing which dominoes you can activate next.
  • Mismatches cost time and send you bouncing away.
  • Clear enough halves to open the passage and reach the exit before your 20 seconds run out.

Everything Is Temporary

The board evolves as you play, and each match leaves it a little different. Your pip value changes, domino halves disappear, and the route you had in mind can stop being useful in a single move. Failure means trying again with what you learned, not just repeating the same solution.

Or wing it. That works too. Sometimes.

Controls

  • WASD / Arrow Keys: Move
  • R: Restart your attempt
  • Esc / P: Pause
  • Help: Open the in-game tutorial

Under the Hood

Built in C/C++ with Raylib and Raygui, I FORGOR is a small experiment in state-driven gameplay. Its core loop combines pip matching, domino consumption, collision and movement physics, timed attempts, and passage progression

The goal was to keep the rules simple enough to understand quickly while letting their interactions create the challenge. A tiny set of mechanics can go a long way when every action changes the state of the puzzle.

Features

  • Five passages with increasing puzzle difficulty
  • Monochrome visuals, hand-drawn cutscenes, and fading movement trails
  • Looping music and sound effects
  • Adjustable audio and trail settings
  • An in-game tutorial
  • Local save data for progress

One Last Thing

You will make mistakes. You will lose time. You will probably forget what you were doing halfway through.

It is fine.

Just keep moving.
