you could've just linked to the tweet from the developer containing the youtube video instead of an ad filled blog

Deeply reminiscent of the gameplay of Superliminal, which is a great 4-6 hour game I really enjoyed: https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/product/superliminal/h...

Reminds me a bit of the game Portal. And perhaps someone with the right imagination could make this work in mixed reality?

I had the same thought. This would be the sort of weird game mechanic the could introduce in a Portal 3.

Like this?[0]

(Valve had a prequel for portal planned before portal 2 with a very similar idea)

Edit: but not nearly as cool as this demo.

Really incredible idea! Cannot wait to see what puzzles people will come up with.

It really feels like something new, like Portal taken to a new level of abstraction.
