[Outer Wonders] is a colorful, pixel art, puzzle-based adventure game

developed by [Utopixel] where you play as Bibi, a cute round monkey who

enjoys rolling in straight lines. Explore a whimsical nature where

altering the environment is key to progress, and solve puzzles to protect

its wonders.

Outer Wonders can be downloaded for Linux and Windows from [itch.io][ow-itchio].

May was mostly dedicated to code cleaning, small improvements, as well as

blogging and community building. Updates of the month include:

- Refactored UI code to streamline menu stacking and ease the implementation

of an upcoming options menu.

- Added support for menu navigation using the D-Pad alongside the existing

analog stick support.

- Published a blog post about building Outer Wonders for Linux/itch.io

([english][ow-bp-english], [french][ow-bp-french]).

- Posted weekly puzzles [#16][ow-p16], [#17][ow-p17], [#18][ow-p18] and

[#19][ow-p19] on social media for players wishing to give puzzles a

try prior to downloading the game.
