History
Shell Shuffle was initially designed and mocked up as a one month game concept. The main motivation was to create a simple and unique gameplay loop that was purely addictive and could be played with a friend. A year and a half later, it became our primary project since we thought it would be simple and straightforward to develop and finish.
That illusion quickly faded as we worked for three months to create a polished experience that we could be proud of and realized how much time it would take to have Shell Shuffle done properly.
When the game was finally ready, we decided to take feedback before finishing it by launching via Early Access on Steam.
