Turning the world to find Mammy
Don't Go To Bed is a family project I’m making with my children. Leo, Ian and Papa are the playable characters. Mammy has gone out, and finding her before nightfall is the job.
The unusual bit is that you can turn the world. A route that looks blocked from one direction can look quite different from another. You can also break and collect blocks, then build your own way through. Cartoon zombies and skeleton archers complicate matters.
The game is already available on Android, iPhone and iPad. You can play alone, or join each other on the same trusted Wi-Fi network. There’s no public matchmaking or public chat.
All characters and gameplay are free, with no ads. There are optional tips behind a grown-ups gate, but paying doesn’t unlock anything or give you an advantage.
We’ve just added the game to PixelPicked. If you try it, I’d particularly like to hear whether turning the world makes sense when you first start playing. It’s a mechanic that’s easier to show than explain, so that first impression is useful.
