Character Crafter Prototype - v0.1.0

Craft a character, create the world.
Character Crafter is a 2-D crafting-puzzle prototype where every Chinese character is both a recipe and a tool.

Gather radicals together → they fuse into a full character.
Pop the character open → it becomes the object it represents.
Use those objects—bridges, blades, trees—to solve micro-levels in creative ways.

No Chinese required. The game is designed for absolute beginners; the characters teach themselves through play.

What’s in this build?
3 bite-sized test levels (≈ 5–10 min total).

Placeholder art, sounds, and UI — focus is mechanics, not polish.

Keyboard controls (WASD / Arrows to move, Space to pick up/drop down, Ctrl to swing weapon, E to equip/unequip).

The reward for the Playtester

I will test your game if you have one in need.
Or if you don't have a Chinese name and want one, I'd be glad to suggest.
