played on iOS, during a convention, with no sound.

started really strong! the later puzzles that required more reflex reactions were a bit more annoying given the mobile form factor and the way i was playing (i.e. when standing in line).

i'm sure the audio would have enhanced the experience even further, but alas i missed out on that.

would recommend for folks looking for a casual puzzle game :)

Linelight looks, sounds, and feels great and is overall a very soothing and chill puzzle game. The whole game has an extremely nice flow that starts with the controls and ends with the cleverly designed puzzles that had just the right difficulty for the mood I was in when playing the game. And while there are only a few essential mechanics throughout the game, they are often combined in new and surprising ways till the very end.

Um puzzle muito bom e simples, que é ótimo para relaxar e passar o tempo.

Linelight se resume a controlar um traço luminoso através de caminhos lineares, completando vários desafios no caminho para poder prosseguir. As mecânicas são simples, mas souberam brincar bastante com elas pra criar puzzles bem interessantes.

I never thought I'd have a tangible emotional connection with colored lines but here we are.

Linelight is a beautiful and fairly smart puzzler where you play a bright white line solving puzzles that are also on lines as you may see from the screenshots. Most of the puzzles are fairly difficult with each of the 6 worlds bringing their own gimmick to the table and requiring some level of planning and thought. There are a couple of puzzles that required completely random split second reflexes to get out of the way of some "enemies" but the vast majority are mostly about thinking ahead and executing a plan. The presentation is gorgeous with the added bloom and particle effects really adding to the atmosphere. The layered soundtrack is really good and adds a dreamlike gentle blanket over the experience. There's also real bonding moments with these lines as you start moving "together" and the game uses its mechanics well to create some really lovely moments especially towards the end.

The puzzles never get hard enough to enjoy them, almost all puzzles require you to wait, there are secret puzzles that require you to go into the wall to see them

Sauber ausgeführtes Puzzle-Konzept. Die Level nach dem Epilog wurden mir etwas anstrengend, da bei allen die Kopiermechanik verwendet wurde.
