What is this game about?

Halver — is a challenging physics-based puzzle platformer with a lot of logic and precision jumping. The main hero can split blocks in half with shots to solve puzzles and reach the exit of the level

The main feature of the game is the main character's ability to split game blocks in half with his shots. This simple but fresh mechanic allows you to create very diverse game levels

Why so long?

On the one hand, we have our main job. And we make the game like real enthusiasts in the evenings and nights

On the other hand, we spent a lot of time on details. We implemented custom lighting shaders, arranged every "block" in the game with geometric precision. We spent several months on the menu alone
