With progression you discover new elements. It brings various new mechanics. Old schemes stopped working and you need to improve your problem-solving skills all the time.
Hade is currently crawling through greenlight and if you enjoyed demo, please support it by voting and/or leaving comments.

FAQ
Q: So, is it another one flash mobile clicker?
A: No. This is PC logic puzzle game with deterministic rules. There is no such thing as timeclicking etc. Only pure brainstorming. Also, I do not think, that genre of logic games belongs to some specific (especially mobile) platform.
Q: Is development finished? How much is done already?
A: This game was in development since April and now it is going through final stages. I am currently constructing last levels for recently added mechanics and polishing existing levels. There is also steam integration remains...
Q: How many levels are we talking about? And in terms of gameplay hours?
A: At the time I have 140 levels, but some of them are not as good as I want. I am aiming for difficult puzzles, which solving require some solid thinking (unlike most levels of demo), but there are different kinds of people.. One tester completed level for like 3 minutes, other took half of hour to solve the same level. So it is hard to give accurate universal answer, but, I guess, in most cases it will take approximately 4 hours to comlpete the game. I can be wrong but I am aiming for this number.
Q: So, you have like, what, 2 testers?
A: It was not the point of my previous answer (T_T). But if you want to participate, you can start with demo. I'll be glad to read some opinions and remarks.
Q: Wait, demo? Where can I find it?
A: Here, on top of the page.
Q: It was too short. 25 levels is not enought for the game!
A: That was just a demo. I am currently trying to pass greenlight.
Q: How can I learn more about this game? SOMEHOW I feel interested in it.
A: Glad to hear! You can play short demo with first levels. They are relatively easy, but they help to get more detailed representation of the full game. Also, I will be glad to answer questions in comments below.
Q: I think I am ready to support you.
A: Nice! Then, vote here please.
Q: How much will it cost if it actually get greenlit?
A: Something about 1-2 dollars, I guess. Definitely not more.
Q: I hate you and you game!
A: It makes me sad. But it is not even a question...
Q: I hate you and your game! Where can I write about my feelings?
A: Here or on greenlight page. But, please, dont :(
Q: I think, there is not enough links on greenlight. Can you add more?
Q: I bet noone actually asked you these questions. They are made up! Even this one!
A: You are right :-( I am just talking to myself. Though, again, it was not a question!
Q: This FAQ is useless!
A: Damn!
Q: Well, I think it is enough of made up questions. Let's call it a day.
A: Ok. Bye :3

Would be nice to see that on itch.io. Posting Demo on itch.io and paid version on Steam kinda defeat the pleasure.
Is there a reason why you only offer your game on Steam? I don't use that service, but would really like to play Hade. So why not offer it here?
