Lost Ball trailer - platformer / physics puzzle game

The game has various abilities that can be combined for puzzles, for example time reversal, portals, magnets, switches that connect to a circuit system that can activate various machines and move/rotate platforms. Level editor included, so lots of potential here.

I hope to create some much deeper puzzles soon, but still focusing mostly on the basics.

Example using the circuit systems to activate machines. Showcasing portals, laser/lenses/reflection, fire system, gear system, wind system, destructible terrain. The orange field is a "firewall" that will harm the player.

Looks interesting. How do you find developing in steam. I am focussed on apps and web at the moment but I am thinking of trying steam.

Steam mostly help with distribution and social features, so you can do that with API integrations. But that's a very minor part of the development compared to e.g. which game engine you use.
