Get ready for an adventure full of creativity and strategy in Platypus Steps! Help an adorable baby platypus reach the cookie jar by carefully planning the path it needs to follow. Observe the environment, choose the right elements, and build a safe route to reach the objective! In each level, you begin in planning mode, observing the character's position, the obstacles, and all the available possibilities. Use the cursor to select and place elements such as springs, wind, and platforms, creating the perfect path for the platypus. When you're satisfied with your plan, press Play and watch your strategy come to life! In execution mode, the platypus runs automatically, and you can no longer change the elements in the environment. It can hit walls and change direction, use springs, be carried by the wind, and cross platforms you placed earlier. But watch out for hazards! Pits, saws, and spikes restart the level, so every element needs to be in the right place.
