Phaiston have long avoided the tightly competetive defence sector, but the IRDA Act 2052 has given us the freedom we need to bring out something really special.

There was a game I played a demo of on a PC Format cover CD as a small child. I'm pretty sure it was called Butterfly, and it was a 2d platformer where your character was a soldier and the people you rescued followed you around and gave you extra firepower. For some reason the first boss fight was against a goldfish-shaped mecha, and there were talking Tower of Hanoi pieces that you had to reunite with the rest of their puzzle before they'd open secret passages for you.

I'm semi-convinced that I imagined the whole thing because I can't find it anywhere (and because it sounds so bizarre). Does anyone else know what I'm talking about?

I think it was this game, I remember playing the same demo. https://archive.org/details/Handkerchief

This is totally it -- thank you! Now to have my rose-tinted glasses shatter when I get home and actually play it.
