The game this article is based on is “Baba Is You” [1]. It’s a logic puzzle game where you try to get “you” to “flag” — or more precisely, “win” (which, by default most of the time, “flag is win”) — but you manipulate a number of objects and join them with other words to change the “rules” of the game.
I highly recommend it to the HN crowd.
