About
Use your color changing staff to solve challenging puzzles. Carry the lessons you learn from each puzzle throughout the game.
Unlock new areas of the hub world and gain access to new puzzle mechanics! You'll learn to use the color changers, teleporters, circuits and more.
Some inhabitants want to help you solve the puzzles! Some would rather you left the puzzles alone.
You can undo any mistake with the press of a button, and you can rewind, pause, or fast-forward time to suit your needs. Way of Rhea has hard puzzles, but forgiving mechanics--no combat or platforming challenges here.
The difficulty builds over time. Use everything you've learned to beat the challenging end game!

I test every build on Steam Deck!
The game is currently letter-boxed on non 16:9 aspect ratio monitors. It's tricky to get this right for a 2D game--if we just allow arbitrary aspect ratios, then the camera will point outside the level bounds, or reveal secrets or puzzle elements you're not supposed to see yet.
I'm not super happy about that. If the game does well enough I may be able to create a patch down the line where I do a pass over each puzzle and make custom camera frames for a few more common aspect ratios, but I can't make any promises right now!

Overall- an excellent puzzler highly recommended for all fans of the genre. Very impressed by this game- I've played a lot of indie puzzle games in my time and this is definitely one of the better ones. It has a great central mechanic that is simple to understand but allows for a lot of creative variations as the game goes on. Well paced also, with each area being a gradual build up to a more difficult conclusion. I experienced a lot of those great "a-ha" moments, staring at a puzzle for a few minutes thinking it looked impossible, then suddenly realizing what the simple solution was. That's one of the best feelings you can have playing a puzzle game, and this one delivers plenty of them. A big part of what makes this game work as well as it does is the "undo" function. Without that the puzzles would have been much more tedious and more focused on timing- but with that ability (along with a pause/speed up function) you're able to focus on the purely cerebral aspects of the puzzle. Really enjoyable soundtrack as well!
Way of Rhea is a delightful puzzle game with gorgeous art and creative puzzles that grow increasingly difficult as you progress through the game. It takes a few levels to get used to the fast forward and undo buttons, and they become an important part of gameplay to help quickly reason through trickier levels. I think the color-changing game mechanic is quite unique and led to some challenging puzzles near the end of the game. Way of Rhea also has a few secrets hidden in some of the levels that were super fun to find! As a fan of puzzle games, this game is an excellent addition to the genre and I would highly recommend the game to others.
I liked the increasing complexity of the puzzles as the mechanics collide with each other. The gradual increase in difficulty from level to level is fair, and there are some that is a real head scratcher. A very well though out puzzle game, with a light hearted narrative. Highly recommend.
Good puzzle game with clever puzzles. Some control confusion on later levels, but the developer is really nice and receptive.
A solid (what feels like) first attempt at a puzzle game. The puzzles were split between having to think about the solution and just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ around until the solution revealed itself. Not as tight design as I am accustomed to. Also the game is short, with me (an idiot) finishing all the levels in under 7 hrs. At $15, that's considerably more expensive than what other games offer. But it is a unique puzzle mechanic that did bring a smile or two, so I gotta support with a thumbs up.
I appreciate the commitment to academic integrity.
Great game. I'm not done, but it's obviously well designed. Works really well on the steam deck. I hope that more content gets added to the game, or we get free dlcs.
Great visuals, good music, and addictive puzzling! Puzzles mechanics are deceptively simple, but it gets hard fast!
Fun game, has a good vibe!
This game has some tough and interesting puzzles while also being light hearted and quirky. I totally recommend this game to anyone who enjoys puzzle games!
