    I made a small 1-level puzzle game about recursive bubbles! A variation on the mechanics of Patrick's Parabox, COCOON, Recursed, etc. I wanted to explore letting you easily visualize and modify the nested structure of rooms. Hope you enjoy! :) patrickgh3.itch.io/bubble-sort

    Ever played Jade Cocoon for PS1? Or even heard of it? This hidden gem mixed monster collecting, RPG battles, and dark fantasy years before it became a thing. The atmosphere, soundtrack, and creature fusion system made it such a unique game!

    Anyone here remember my first independently designed game: 140? If it was not for the relative success of '140' I don't think COCOON would have been made.

    I finished Cocoon yesterday. What a great game. Simple commands, lots of mind-bending "inception" like puzzles. The beautiful art direction reminded me of Monument Valley, the game got inspiration from Journey as well. If you are looking for a nice short game to work out your brain, go for it.

    Some Monsters from a little known monster tamer game series called "Jade Cocoon"; or "Jade Cocoon 2" in this case. They're pretty fun to draw so I think I'll do these In between the Digimon stuff as a BSKY exclusive thing. #JadeCocoon

    So...there's two out-of-ghibli-but-by staff stuff here's called Cocoon (Jade Cocoon and Cocoon). Meanwhile the official Ghibli-illustratred game Ni No Kuni and Jade Cocoon are about fighting with collected creatures. Don't mind me.

    Jade Cocoon was out 27 years ago (in 1998). A monster-taming game with more "organic" visuals (thanks to art direction from Ghibli artist Katsuya Kondo giving it a Pokémon meets Princess Mononoke vibe). The series sits betwixt forgotten & hidden gem nowadays. Review: www.rpgfan.com/game/jade-co...

    Game #27 of 2026 ✅ Cocoon PlayStation 5 🎮 Platinum Trophy 🏆 Such a satisfying puzzle game, almost therapeutic in parts. A couple of the later puzzles had my brain hurting, but it felt great to work them out. The fact it’s played with a single button, with so much depth, is impressive.

    Explain a game you love: A Ghibli-esque monster taming game where you must purify, capture and even fuse bug-like creatures to save your village from invasion. Touted for its grim story/dialogues, its beautiful polygonal graphics, Jade Cocoon is a stand out in the ps1 game library. #retrogaming

    What’s your “no one but me remembers” game? Jade Cocoon 1/2. Tho I did like 2 more than 1. The first was a bit clunky and those low poly models didn’t help. 2 also improved/streamlined a lot. I’ve got the art book for the series because the art and character designs are just so damn charming.

    It sucks that there's just going to be a group of people that's going to hate Cocoon forever and use it as an example of "an industry plant" because the game won an award that they both say is a sham but are also really mad that their favorite game didn't win said sham award. I liked Cocoon!
