in addition to the gizmos, i've added a grab and drag which has been one of the most requested features from my playtesters. alt+drag to duplicate and even snapping still work with this as well.

I've overhauled my puzzle level generation so a level is now "grown" like cell tissue in a triangle tessellation. New elements can be inserted anywhere, and the whole level deforms to make room. This makes it easier to control topology and create paths that loops around areas.

Mimic Meadows was featured in this Kotaku article!|

I've been working on the full version of Mimic in #godot for a year now and I've discovered cool new mechanics like eating and mating~
