Evaluation
Baba Is You launched on March 13, 2019 and has received years of ongoing patches, feature additions, and content updates from its solo developer. On January 2, 2026, the developer published a major update (Version 481d) adding new objects, new words, mod support improvements, and numerous bug fixes — and explicitly stated in that post that "this will most probably be the final large update for BIY." This is a direct developer statement signaling the conclusion of active content development, accompanied by a thank-you to the community for years of support. The only DLC ever released was the game's soundtrack, which shipped on launch day in 2019. No future content has been announced or teased following this final update statement.

About this game
Baba Is You is an award-winning puzzle game where you can change the rules by which you play. In every level, the rules themselves are present as blocks you can interact with; by manipulating them, you can change how the level works and cause surprising, unexpected interactions! With some simple block-pushing you can turn yourself into a rock, turn patches of grass into dangerously hot obstacles, and even change the goal you need to reach to something entirely different.
The game has over 200 levels that experiment with the game's mechanics in a multitude of ways, requiring the player to understand and manipulate the rules of the game and figure out devious ways to make the objects in the game world interact.
The game was originally created for and won the Nordic Game Jam 2017. Baba Is You also won the Excellence in Design and Best Student Game awards in the Independent Games Festival 2018, and was nominated a finalist in 2 other categories, including the Seumas McNally Grand Prize. The game was made using Multimedia Fusion 2 by Clickteam.
