What's it all about?
OUTSIDE is a minimalist puzzle game where every move counts. Guide your one-eyed character across a grid to collect the key and unlock the door to the next level — but there’s a twist: once you start moving in a direction, you can’t stop until you hit a wall. Plan your path carefully, avoid dead ends, and use the environment to your advantage. Simple to play, but tricky to master, OUTSIDE challenges your logic and spatial thinking with each new level.
