Notes from making Haus Rules: what we tried, what broke and what we kept.

  • The respawn button

    We replaced undo with a button that rebuilds your house piece by piece. It changed how people play.

  • Gravity, but polite

    Pieces in Haus Rules used to fall over. Players hated it. How we made physics that helps instead of punishing.

  • Why three shapes

    Haus Rules started as a one-evening prototype with a triangle, a square and a circle. Here's why we never added a fourth.
