How I accidentally stumbled upon the main mechanic

From the beginning, I wanted to do something with moving several characters at once and connecting them with lines.

When I started prototyping my idea, I accidentally set the physics parameters wrong and my prototype figures started moving as if they were driving on ice.

Then something dawned on me and I thought what if the cultists had to perform the summoning ritual on ice.

This is how Cultists on ICE were created, a game of considerable skill XD

It often happens that this is how the most interesting game mechanics are created.

I'd love to know if you've had similar experiences.
