The original inspiration is from a novel written by Brandon Sanderson, of whom I am a big fan, where the protoganist is able to push and pull on objects with her mind. I thought this would be a very cool game mechanic and so my teammate and I sat down and brainstormed this idea. We gained a lot of level design skills while developing this game. We also carried out a large amount of game testing with a range of different types and ages of players (including my 70-year-old gamer grandpa).
