A simple puzzle game by the developer of Rara Racer and Mirror Stage, The Black Yeti tells the story of large ape creature who has to devour all intruders to the cave without them noticing its presence.

The game was created in under a weekend for a friendly Mini Ludum Dare competition, hence the lack of polish and content. There are about ten levels to play in total.

Name: The Black Yeti
Developer: Stephen Lavelle
Category: Puzzle

Not bad. I could see this being developed further.

This is frustrating, i cant even get past the 4th level or something with just 1 guy in a big room on the left. There is no way to hide from him. How in hell do you do this?

Ok i found it, the difference in the light. When the yeti is in the full light, show your white side to the guy and you can pass unnoticed.

the first part of the puzzle is figuring out the rules of the puzzle.

i still don't know the rules but i'm on the 6th or 7th level somehow. o_0

The game's logic still baffles me and I was able to complete it through trial & error so take that as you wish.
