Finding Teddy

The gameplay involves the girl moving from screen to screen, left or right, when there is a passage. Items in the environment can be picked up and interacted with by clicking/tapping where allowed. The girl's inventory appears around her as a circle of bubbles, and items can be used in the environment by selecting them in the inventory first and then in the scenery. Along the way, she picks up two companions, a fly and a cat, who can also be used to solve puzzles. Many puzzles involve deciphering the sound-based alphabet used in the world.

The game features many mechanics, including the ability to die and respawn at the same location. Progression unlocks concept art in the main menu, and there is a challenge to collect fifteen hidden orbs in the environment. The PC version has reworked backgrounds in higher resolution, while the Steam version includes the soundtrack for free. Completing the game unlocks Newgame+, which offers an alternate costume, fully deciphered alphabet, and alternative ending.
