This is a very well-done piece in a good cause, but it would have been nice for the author to acknowledge the very obvious inspiration from Monument Valley - https://www.monumentvalleygame.com/mv1 - particularly given they're asking for tips.

Sounds like it might have been added later but it's in the credits now

>The idea for parallel paths and the illustration style developed independently, but the team did take inspiration for the isometric world and user experience mechanics from the game Monument Valley once made aware. If you enjoyed this format, give Monument Valley a play through the Apple or Android app stores.

Is there more to the inspiration than "3d isometric with a lot of staircases"?

More like MC Escher, Monument Valley isn’t an original idea.

How far back do you want to take this? Like why aren't they giving credit to the person who invented the pen? C'mon, this is a much more direct copy of Monument Valley than Escher.

		Monument Valley is a copy of Escher so I’m not sure your point. Or maybe it’s an order thing? Then Monument Valley is a copy of the Escher scenes from the movie Labyrinth or maybe it’s a copy of a-ha’s Take me on music video?
