I found inspiration for the basic game concept in:
- designing levels for Switches, a puzzle game by archimedes496
- playing various platform games on Scratch
- watching a TV commercial for Splatoon
- memories of playing Marble Madness
- my obsession to get maximum value out of a minimum of code
- walking the dog at night
