Kye

A classic puzzle game

Kye is a current-gen remake of the puzzle game created in 1992 by Colin Garbutt for Windows 3.1. In Kye, you must navigate each level to reach every diamond. Experiment to find the properties of the objects encountered to pass each level. Contains all 500+ levels from the original version of Kye and a level editor to make and share your own. Enjoy!
