description Patrick's Parabox Overview

Patrick's Parabox is a puzzle game designed, developed, and programmed by Patrick Traynor, released in 2022. The game centers on a Sokoban-style box-pushing mechanic that explores the mathematical concept of recursion and spatial paradoxes. Players navigate over 350 distinct levels by pushing boxes into other boxes, which can transport the player's avatar into the interior of the box itself, or out of the main level. The mechanics expand further by introducing boxes that contain themselves, requiring players to manipulate a nested hierarchy of spatial dimensions to solve puzzles.
