ThreadBound
ThreadBound is a dark fairytale puzzle-platformer about a tiny yarn doll trying to stitch a broken world back together.
You play as a small red thread creature in a handmade world of fabric, buttons, paper platforms, scissors, spools, torn cloth. Every level is built around one idea: the world is falling apart, and your thread is the only thing holding it together.
Jump across torn platforms, attach your thread to buttons, pull yourself over gaps, repair broken seams, avoid deadly traps, and solve small physics-based puzzles to reach the end of each level.
