LINELIGHT now available
January 31, in the year of our Lord 2017 --
Set in a world made entirely of lines, Linelight’s 300 levels
and six worlds are woven with Zen-like music, rich gameplay
mechanics, and elegant design that distill the puzzle genre down
to its very foundation. Take control of a line named “Dash” to
explore the puzzles and mysteries of Linelight. The controls are
irreducibly simple:
Move.
Activate color-coded switches to create a “bridge.” Watch out
for red moving lines -- friendly in appearance, deadly on
contact. Combine familiar gameplay mechanics to come up with
one-of-a-kind solutions for exultant “Aha!” moments.
Linelight’s simple presentation belies a world of rich
complexities and secrets. Keep an eye out for stars, and
concentrate to discover secret pathways that expand the scope of
your journey. Can you stay cool, keep Dash safe, and follow the
path to its ultimate end?
DEVELOPER QUOTE
Brett Taylor (founder and lead designer, My Dog Zorro)
“My goal was to take simplification to the extreme (initially
for the fun design challenge), but eventually because that’s
where the most beautiful possibilities dwelled. The real meat
and joy in puzzle games is when players have all the information
they need, and every puzzle in Linelight skips straight to that
moment. No fluff, no filler. Just puzzle-solving ecstasy. I hope
you have as much fun experiencing Linelight as I did creating
it.”
