Game overview

Pillow physics

Fortify was created during Global Game Jam 2019. You drag soft puzzle pieces to build a defensive wall around Teddy, then hit play to see if your structure withstands a barrage of falling toys. Adjust the layout, replay, and aim for the highest score while keeping Teddy safe.

Controls

Mouse-driven building

  • Click and drag blocks into position.
  • Rotate pieces (usually with right-click or on-screen buttons in the jam build).
  • Start the test to launch the toy storm and watch physics react.

Why play it?

Jam charm

  • Short levels ideal for casual sessions.
  • Cute art and sound design that match the bedtime theme.
  • Open-source project for developers looking at simple physics puzzle setups.

Tips

Protect Teddy

  • Reinforce corners—the toy barrage often strikes from above.
  • Layer pillows and heavier pieces to absorb impacts.
  • Experiment with rotation; sometimes a vertical pillow is sturdier than a horizontal one.
