The Tangled Tapestry

Welcome, little one ! 

What a cute little monster you are... the monk who drew you in his manuscript really was inspired ! 

But he soon grew tired of the shennanigans you got into, and the pranks you kept pulling on him... 

So he banished you to a very strange world, a prison of his making shaped like a Möbius strip : The Tangled Tapestry !

Use your unique morphology and understand the shape of this looping world to find a way out and return to your original book !

We worked as a team of two over 4  days during the 2025 GMTK Game Jam - The theme for that years edition was : Loop !
