Linelight, developed and published by My Dog Zorro, is a minimalist puzzle experience that demonstrates how much can be achieved with the simplest of tools. Stripped of characters, dialogue, and traditional storytelling, it builds an entire world out of glowing lines and movement, relying purely on design, rhythm, and player intuition to communicate its ideas. What initially appears abstract quickly becomes intuitive, as the game teaches its language through interaction rather than instruction.
The gameplay centers on guiding a small line along interconnected paths, navigating a network that gradually becomes more complex. At first, the objective is straightforward—move from one point to another—but the structure of these paths introduces challenges that require careful thought. Obstacles, moving hazards, switches, and locked segments are layered in over time, turning simple navigation into a series of increasingly intricate puzzles. The brilliance lies in how these mechanics are introduced: the game never interrupts the player with explicit explanations, instead allowing understanding to emerge naturally through observation and experimentation.
As progression continues, the puzzles evolve in subtle but meaningful ways. New elements are introduced at a measured pace, ensuring that each addition feels like an extension of what has already been learned rather than a sudden complication. Timing becomes more important, as players must navigate moving lines or avoid collisions, while spatial reasoning is tested through layouts that require planning several steps ahead. Despite this growing complexity, the game maintains a sense of clarity, never overwhelming the player with too many variables at once.
One of the most striking aspects of Linelight is its ability to create tension without pressure. There are no time limits or harsh consequences for failure; instead, mistakes result in immediate resets that encourage players to try again. This approach keeps the experience focused on problem-solving rather than punishment, making even the more challenging puzzles feel approachable. The absence of external pressure allows players to engage at their own pace, creating a rhythm that feels both thoughtful and calming.
The visual presentation reinforces this sense of focus. The game’s clean, abstract design ensures that every element serves a purpose, with color and motion used to convey information clearly. There is no unnecessary detail, and this simplicity makes it easy to read the environment and understand how different elements interact. Complementing this is a soft, piano-driven soundtrack that responds subtly to the player’s actions, adding an emotional layer to the experience without drawing attention away from the puzzles themselves.
While the game offers a steady progression through its main levels, it also includes optional challenges and hidden elements that reward thorough exploration. These additions provide extra depth for players who want to fully engage with the game’s mechanics, though the overall structure remains focused and relatively concise. The experience can be completed in a few hours, and once all puzzles have been solved, there is limited incentive to return, as the solutions are fixed and rely on discovery rather than variation.
The game’s minimalism, while a defining strength, may also limit its appeal. Players looking for narrative context or a wider variety of gameplay systems may find it too focused, as it remains committed to its core idea from beginning to end. However, this consistency is also what allows it to feel so cohesive, as every element is aligned with its central design philosophy.
Ultimately, Linelight succeeds by refining a simple concept into something elegant and memorable. It offers a series of carefully constructed challenges that reward patience, observation, and logical thinking, all within a presentation that is both calming and visually distinct. It is a game that does not seek to impress through scale or complexity, but through the precision of its design.
In the end, Linelight stands as a beautifully crafted puzzle experience that balances challenge and tranquility with remarkable ease. Its minimalist approach may not suit everyone, but for those who appreciate thoughtful design and subtle progression, it delivers a consistently rewarding and quietly captivating journey.
Rating: 9/10
fun puzzle game, gives some good challenges that made me feel smart
Lo jugué en la ASUS ROG Ally en modo portátil, La experiencia fue muy buena con 10w.
Es un juego de puzzles minimalista que parece simple… hasta que deja de serlo. Es difícil, pero justo. Todo se basa en entender los patrones y el comportamiento de las líneas, sin necesidad de texto ni explicaciones. Vas aprendiendo sobre la marcha, casi sin darte cuenta.
Tiene muchas zonas ocultas, y en mi caso varias las encontré por accidente… pero eso le da ese toque especial, donde explorar y experimentar es parte clave del juego.
Hubo momentos donde resolví un puzzle y pensé “soy un genio”… y otros donde no tenía idea de cómo lo logré, pero igual lo acepté como victoria.
En resumen: un juego elegante, retador y muy bien diseñado. Ideal si te gustan los puzzles puros sin distracciones.
光を道なりに進めるゲーム。
言語もなく説明もなく、画面上ではスイッチの操作ぐらいしかやることがないのにかなりの難易度があります。
タイミングだったり、スピードだったり、試行錯誤を重ねて知識を増やし、だんだんできることが増えるようになっていくようなイメージです。
隠しステージもあり、ボリュームもたっぷり！音楽と世界観もヒーリング要素がいっぱいでおすすめです！
翻库里面落灰的游戏出来玩玩，发觉2017年购入了不少轻度且感觉易于在如睡前这种不长的空隙时间段打开的游戏。
最近又选了几个下载，这款印象里应该是比较有名的，时隔多年，记忆已廖，纯盲选，至少看封面图给人感觉不会很给人压力
玩起来也确实是，爽滑启动
而且其实超出预期，尤其是玩着玩着发觉居然还有点诗意叙事的意思
一开始以为很模块化，后面发现也可以很连续很渐变，无论是体验还是小关的展开方式
音乐也很好，进一步帮助人感受这种自然和连贯
快到结束的时候开始发现其实在无形中讲故事啊，有点相爱相杀，相伴别离的意思了
时间正好差不多了，第一章也结束了，挺好，也算提供了适当的段落感
第一章感觉好多搬运题，我解密玩的少，最近一次大量见到大概还是前阵子在《动物井》里面？也不知道后面难度会不会变态爆炸起来，但愿不会吧
会有点畏惧后面的大量的题目量，但又会好奇后面会否有更有趣的诗意叙事方式
另外有时候会暗自吐嘈玩家这个控制的角色为荧光小屈...因为时不时总让我感觉是个虫子（尤其是卡住的时候）咳，这么一说一下就有点打破唯美的滤镜/气氛了似的，罪过罪过。
Sweet little game with heartfelt storytelling; each level left me pensive yet smiling. I had a blast collecting all of the achievements. It is a game that is perfect for setting down and picking back up after a long or a rough day.
as frustrating and buggy as it is stylish. lots of real-time arcade/platforming nonsene getting in the way of puzzling. or simply progressing, as you'll die a lot. 'pure, unadulterated gameplay' my ass. non-rebindable controls are the cherry on top of the ♥♥♥♥ cake.
感觉游戏玩法而言更适合移植到移动端做成手游/小程序游戏的模式。就游戏本身而言，整体解谜难度曲线很平滑，游戏体验很不错，试错成本也很低，但因为形式和画面整体还是太简约了，解题思路整体也还是有很多相似性的堆难度的地方，放在pc端上很难让人一口气玩太久，放在手机上没事摸鱼时玩玩可能更合适
近几年玩的最能让我回归平静的游戏，simple is best
[h2]Una línea, muchas ideas y un ritmo que fluye[/h2]
Linelight me agradó bastante. Es de esos juegos que se sienten refrescantes porque hacen mucho con muy poco. Quién diría que una simple línea podría ofrecer tantas variantes, retos y situaciones distintas sin dejar de ser entretenido. Esa simplicidad visual es justo lo que le da identidad y lo vuelve tan agradable de jugar.
La experiencia, en general, la disfruté mucho, aunque siendo honesto, hacia el final ya empezaba a sentirse un poco cansada. No porque esté mal diseñada, sino porque el loop ya lo tienes muy interiorizado. Aun así, el camino hasta ahí vale completamente la pena. Las animaciones son suaves, todo se mueve con mucha fluidez y la música de fondo está sabrosa, relajante y muy bien acompañada del ritmo del juego.
Algo que me gustó bastante fue descubrir los niveles escondidos y los mini coleccionables. No son obligatorios, pero añaden una capa extra de complejidad para quien quiere explorar un poco más allá de lo evidente. Es un buen balance entre experiencia accesible y reto opcional.

Un puzzle minimalista, relajante y creativo. Puede cansar un poco hacia el final, pero el viaje es muy disfrutable y demuestra cómo una idea sencilla bien ejecutada puede sostener toda una experiencia.
Neat little coordination / order-of-operations puzzler. I admit I'm a bit leery of real-time mechanics in a game like this, but I think overall the game is mostly reasonable with such things, even when they are the theme of certain rooms (e.g. dodging enemies that move on-the-beat of music).
There have been many games that play with the concepts of "pressure plates", magnets, recording your own movements, etc. but I think the puzzles used in this game do a pretty good job introducing, elaborating upon, and combining these concepts.
I'm also not generally a big fan of invisible pathways used to hide secret rooms, but the map is very helpful for pointing out where they are and thus a clear suggestion for how to get to them. A lot of puzzles are skippable, too, so you can have a decent number of puzzles available at one time to work on, hopefully without getting roadblocked by any one in particular.
The soundtrack is also generally pretty fitting, melodic without being overbearing.
Overall, this is a reasonably short game you can probably get done in a few sessions, or a week or so, but I had a good time working through it all. Just be prepared to have to restart a room because you accidentally bumped into yourself. If that doesn't bother you too much you should be fine.
9/10
Buenísimo
I had wanted to give it a positive review. But it was before I started to 100% it. You need to guess how some mechanics work, without any tutorial. You need to use elements from other puzzles. You can break quite a lot of puzzles and solve them in a way that seems like the designer didn't predict.
Un gran juego de dificultad media en el que se basa en recorrer un trayecto de A a B con una línea, simple, pero en algunos momentos tienes que estrujarte un poco el cerebro. Me ha gustado...
うつくしい
Puzzles are well-made, the style/ambience is consistent and charming, and the music is great to work to.
I did not know [i] a line [/i] could hold so much emotion and attachment
:steamthumbsdown: no me gusto yo esperaba unas horas de relajo mientras escucho un audio libro , hay que reselver puzzles , no son dificiles . pero no vale el precio , ni las horas invertidas
很久以前在手机上玩过，后来众所周知苹果国区下架了一堆付费游戏，看到在 Steam 上有，就又买了一份，重温一下。
估计是因为之前玩过的原因吧总之 5 个小时我就 100% 了哈哈哈（不过挑战我不知道为什么打不开，可惜了），很不错的游戏，简约的风格对我来说正好，音乐也好听。
the game has some puzzles that require actual thinking
the visuals and sound design are cool
the hidden paths have hints (didnt have to play spot the thing) which is great
very fun
Marvelous and relaxing puzzle game
This game is literally just lines moving to do stuff, yet the ending was still really beautiful, I won't spoil it but it was satisfying to look at as well as very rewarding, requiring all the skills you learnt.
一款优秀解密游戏，很早之前就玩到过，现在补个票吧（名字还是我问chatGPT才找到的）
音乐很舒服适合休闲娱乐[strike] （就是容易睡着） [/strike]，关卡方面有新颖的地方，不过大部分的关卡相似度太高了太繁琐了完全就是先问你1+1 再问10+10 最后再问11+11，只能说这种解密不能一味的在关卡上做加法，还要适当做减法。
制作组好评，我反馈游戏崩溃后马上进行了更新，时隔8年还能解决问题，这态度真的好。
全実績解除済。パズルゲームとしての難易度はかなり低く「チュートリアル」の期間も長い。アクション性やタイミング感を求められることがあり、論理的に解けるものを求める人には不向きか。
だがビジュアルやBGMは非常に美しく、雰囲気ゲーとして完成度が高い。また、パズル性やアクション性を重視したステージとは別に(説明しにくいのだが)雰囲気やあギミックがぴったりハマる気持ちよさを重視した、パズル的には難易度0のステージがある。全体を通じてパズルが解ける気持ちよさとは別の部分に魅力を感じた。
久しぶりにいいパズルゲームに出会えた！
線を動かすだけの単純なアクションパズルで、これだけ色々なギミックがあって、それも決して難しすぎない。
チルなBGMに、一文字も言語はないのに線が生きているように感じる、ストーリーがある。
かつては敵だった線が味方となり集結！ そして散っていく……みたいな妄想が捗る。
まだ隠しのグリーンスターの方はやれてないけど、イエロースター全取得の時点でだいぶ満足してしまった。
Chill and creative
good game, cerebral
尝试设计过谜题后，就会知道这有多难：大量理性的元素如此优雅地排列、相互作用。我甚至在尝试中不知不觉就通过了许多谜题，真是大师手笔
不错的一款解谜，流程长度约8~10h，关卡音乐美术都很唯美，不错的视听体验。
Very chill little puzzle game.
Great game, had me laugh from the joy of finding a tough or interesting solution at multiple occasions. Loved it and my only criticisms are narrative in origin (some unclear game vocabulary, but practicing with the mechanics gets you on board handily)
One of the best minimalistic puzzles I ever played, and I've played a lot of them.
Original puzzles. Love me a good short and interesting game. Loved the simplicity of the visuals and how the game still manages to make you feel part of a grander thing, even being a simple puzzle game. Very nice
Me parece un juego fantástico para los amantes de los puzles. Super tranquilo, con puzles que son asequibles para la rama principal pero que se complican para los niveles secundarios. Muy recomendable.
Скорее тайминговый платформер, чем головоломка
10/10
Vraiment cool ! Ambiance appréciable malgré le premier abord qui peut sembler simple. Zone cachée qui pousse à aller voir partout. Mécaniques variées.
7-8 heures pour le 100%.
Брал на распродаже примерно за 60-70 руб.
+ геймплей приятный, не сложный (под конец правда мозги греет). Лучше на геймпаде проходить, т.к. бывает надо быстро направление на развилках выбирать.
+ музыка расслабляет
+ сюжета нет, но скорее метафоры. И так неплохо.
+ есть секреты, пока нашел не все, но наличие - приятно
Fantastic puzzle game! Gets progressively harder in a very natural way, and teaches new mechanics along the way. WELL worth the money.
미니멀한 퍼즐게임
아이디어는 괜찮아보였지만, 전반적으로 아쉬운 활용도
그래도 신선해서 좋았다

Linelight is a minimalist puzzle adventure about controlling a luminous dash over a line network. The game develops its very own puzzle design through a limited set of obstacles and secondary dashes, all carefully positioned in pared-down line levels. Solving the levels and completing the dash’s journey requires both logical reasoning and precise inputs.
Linelight is made of several worlds, each presenting a succession of puzzles connected by a continuous line—the one your white dash glides onto. A few puzzles rely exclusively on activating the right switches to toggle line segments, but most of them combine these static elements with secondary, mobile dashes. For instance, red dashes are always on the move and you should never let them come in contact with you, otherwise the level will reset. Orange dashes should not be touched either, but they won’t move unless you do, so you could manipulate one to toggle a segment right when you need it to.
The dashes you’ll encounter will change as you progress from one world to the next, but the accuracy requirement is pretty much a constant. Despite its soft and glowy visuals, Linelight is what you could call a “precision-puzzler”, with multiple puzzles involving both precise positioning and time-sensitive inputs. Colorblind players could also have a hard time completing the game, since it relies heavily on colors to characterize the different types of dashes.
The challenges of each world come in several layers. The overall objective is to get to the very end of the main line, which requires tackling multiple puzzles along the way, but not all. Solving optional rooms will grant you additional yellow stars. There are also hidden rooms to find off the main path, with harder levels that will grant you green stars. Finally, you can revisit each world in sections and compete against the clock to clear them as fast as possible.

不错的解谜，难度适中，音画都很舒服
This is a good game. My favorite part was after the traditional puzzles on each world were solved and the music changes and the player light is being chased by another light going in between screens fairly quickly.
[h2]Rating: 9/10[/h2]
A fantastic minimalistic puzzle game that, for the most part, is always fair in it's design and provides nice challenges. The game is divided into nine worlds. These include six main worlds, in which a new mechanic gets introduced and taught to the player early on for them to play with and solve puzzles about, a brief epilogue, and two bonus worlds that expand on the main game. I enjoyed every mechanic in this game, except for the clone that gets introduced in world six. It seems like it's constantly offsetting itself when trying to replicate your movements, it adds a time pressure to puzzles that I don't enjoy, and a mechanic regarding it (small circles above the spawner) isn't properly taught to the player, but is needed for the final puzzle in the last bonus world. Asides from that the only other small gripe I had was the green star bonus collectible that required bringing in an orange line from another screen.
很美的游戏，到a+前难度不高，很享受。。也许是多次尝试也许是误打误撞，总之到结束时你能体会到游戏设计者的用意。能致死的不同色块在平行线上就变成了“惺惺相惜”的同路人，一点点距离就可以和谐共生。
很棒的游戏，音乐舒缓，节奏也很舒缓，有一些小巧思，玩到现在不难，还可以竞速
画风简洁唯美/设计精巧的解密游戏（在很多关卡其实是动作游戏
内核很简单，就是在轨道上位移/躲避障碍/找机关开门，但几个能力的设计让关卡丰富多样。
整体难度不高，隐藏关个别的有点抽象不过也还好，音乐很不错
氛围营造的相当好，甚至每章末尾我会对跟随的“小红”产生陪伴感，像是养着的一只小宠物跟着你一起散步一样（然后偶尔一头把你撞死
到小紫那真的是唤狗了……像是忠心耿耿的舔狗，被小白的魅力吸引过来，但是小白却是个渣线，就是不接触一遍又一遍的推开（也许是因为接触了会暴毙
小粉像是一个跟踪狂，亦步亦趋地跟着我的脚步模仿我，被我撞到之后就羞愧难当（然后把我干掉）
脑补出一场大戏……
不足可能是部分关卡有点同质化，有些解密时限卡的比较严让人红温
总体来说相当不错的小清新解密游戏，相当推荐

a game that triggers emotions with moving lines and dots
A really fun puzzle game that explores many ideas without becoming repetitive or boring. Well worth an evening of your time.
I played this game when I was stressed, it gave me so much relief
Phenomenal game through and through, great sound design and even better puzzle design!
Most obscure game I have reviewed yet, very interesting set of puzzles. The ending is gorgeous.
[b]纯粹、简洁的逻辑和律动之美。解谜难度适中，后期主要看操作。第六世界结尾甚至打了感情牌——小紫出现又是一个难忘的Aha moment。好吧，我承认被你感动了。[/b]
Super adorable little puzzle game. Lovely music, wonderful visuals and clever, easy-going gameplay.
Really enjoyed my time with this little gem. It's a shame it's not better known, honestly. There are so many simple puzzlers on here that it's difficult to play them all, but I'd put this one among my favourites of recent times. Reminds me of "Circuits" and a little of 'Hook'.
I can see that there's more puzzle if I find the 'green stars', but I found the puzzles to get them to be a little tricky, so I gave up without getting all of them. If I had more time I'd totally rinse this game, it's lovely.
Well recommended for a casual, but engaging puzzler.
This is a game about moving on a line. And taking some turns onto other lines. And switching doors. And collecting diamonds. And enemies to dodge.
Discovering the different interactions with new mechanics being introduced every world was very fun. It is essentially like analyzing the properties of concepts, except those ideas are minimalistic and intuitive to understand. The puzzles themselves came in one of two different types: thinking or dexterity. For the thinking puzzles, they were not meant to be difficult as much as they were meant to be clever and fun once the ah-ha moment came. I was not a fan of the dexterity puzzles, but I played through all of them anyway. The secret puzzles were also cool, as many required a different approach to a previously solved simpler puzzle.
The visuals and sound effects were very fitting for the theme. Sometimes, "less is more" when thinking about game design, and in that regard, this game succeeded in that.
I was not too into the story, but some other people might find it more interesting than I did.
Overall, this game was fun to play, and it went with its own style.
absolutely goated game, got me feeling emotional attachment to little coloured lines. 11/10
It's a good game,but as a puzzle game, some levels are more so based on precision than figuring out what to do. So that aspect can be considered.
如果没有亲自玩一下我也想象不出我身为一个小线段怎么会对另一个小线段产生复杂的感情的。
高度推荐。
// 白金纪念
很牛的游戏！尤其是不用任何文字甚至图像说明，只让关卡自己解释了所有机制这一点，非常值得学习。收集物的线索很友好，操作手感也很丝滑，整个游戏非常精致。
当然也有不足之处，比如传送带的速度、路径的摩擦系数等不太直观，但一试便知而且试错成本低，也就无可厚非。
Great and unique puzzle game, lovely music. I found most puzzles in it to be pretty casual but very satisfying, and there are some real brain teasers too if you go after all the stars.
[h3] アブスト [/h3]
雰囲気良し、音楽良し、演出良し、パズル良しの非常に完成度の高い2Dパズルゲームです。
たまに難しいパズルもありますが、パズル好きならサクサク解けるぐらいの難易度だと思います。
[h3] どんなゲーム？ [/h3]
線を操作して、♦の形をした星(Star)を集めるパズルゲームです。黄色の星と緑色の星があり、黄色の星は進行上パズルを解いて必ず取るものと取らなくても進められる挑戦的なものの二つがあります。緑色の星はいわゆる隠し的な概念で、ステージのどこかにある隠しルートを見つけて難しめのパズルを解くと緑色の星を取ることができます。
自分の線は白色ですが、ステージを進めていくと自分とは独立な様々な色の線が出てきて、そのいずれも特徴的な性質を持っています。それらに邪魔されながら、時にはその性質を逆に利用することで様々なパズルを解いていきます。
[h3] 筆者の進行 [/h3]
プレイ時間は10時間に満たない程度で、すべての星を集め実績コンプリートです。基本はサクサク解けますが、後半になると長考しないと解けないパズルも出てきました。うまくほかの線の性質を利用しないと解けないパズルではこのLinelightというゲームの理解度が問われ、かなり楽しくパズルを解かせてくれました！
[h3] おすすめ？ [/h3]
[b]かなりおすすめします！！ [/b]
私はセールの時にバンドルで購入したのですが、単体でも値段はセール中ならジュース一本くらいなのでぜひ購入してこのゲームの雰囲気や音楽、そしてもちろんパズルを楽しんでみてほしいです。
ガイドに有志の方がパズルの解法や緑色の星の場所などを動画にしてあげてくれているので、行き詰まった場合はそのガイドを見ることで進めることもできます。
good
Simple, relaxing puzzle game. It leaves you with that warm and fuzzy feeling after you finish the game.
Pros:
- Easy to understand and play(only 4 directions and 2 action keys)
- Beautiful art style that manages to be clean and minimalist without looking unfinished
- Lots of secret paths, and the map makes it impossible to miss them
- Speedrun challenges don't have achievements linked to them(it's fairly easy to 100% the game)
Neutral:
- The game is designed with controller as the intended input method(but I had no trouble playing it entirely with keyboard)
Cons:
- Not colorblind-friendly
- Some lag issues in World 6 (I believe it occurs if you cross over a checkpoint with too many [spoiler] clones [/spoiler] active at once)
Overall, Linelight is a solid 9.5/10. My only complaint is that I wish there were more levels in the game!
Успокаивающая большую часть времени игра. Остальная часть игры заставила неплохо так напрячь мозг, а где-то показать скорость мышления и реакцию. Визуальная составляющая игра выполнена на все сто. Музыка не раздражает и дополняет атмосферу игры. В игре говорится, что лучше играть с геймпадом, что я и сделал, но оно какое-то как будто неточное, нередко шло не в ту ветку, в которую хотел. Общее ощущение было такое, будто один в большом здании находишься, кроме концовок уровней, там как будто с напарником.
Получил приятное ощущение после прохождения сложных головоломок. Количество механик порадовало. Как и принято для головоломок, добавляются они постепенно, а потом уже начинают сочетаться, заставляю подумать над решением.
Difficulty: ★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Quality: ★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆
I absolutely hated this game on my first playthrough. After a replay with some more puzzle experience, I can say it definitely sucks less than I thought it did, but I still wouldn't recommend it for mostly the same reasons.
As for the stuff I did like: the aesthetics are EXTREMELY polished (like wow this soundtrack is amazing), and most of the puzzles I did like were amazing and explored the mechanics really well. Not much more to say honestly.
Now the stuff I didn't like:
[list]
[*]Some of the puzzles just feel like they're exactly the same as previous ones but more annoying execution-wise. A prime example of this are the enemy spam mazes (no really, that's what they are) somewhere in each world. They aren't interesting, and either require no thought and are the exact same dexterity challenges, or are solved with simple trial and error.
[*]The mechanic in world 5 is just jank. I often couldn't tell whether I actually found the right solution and just needed to time it better, or I needed to rethink everything.
[*]The mechanic in world 6 results in puzzles that require quite a lot of timing. Which would've been fine if I signed up for an action game. I didn't. This game, before this point, was like 90% puzzles.
[*][spoiler]I am not sure why they decided this game should have secrets. They're not clever. They're not like Baba Is You's secrets, which are a natural extension of the mechanics of the game, and they're not like ElecHead's secrets, which are actually clued well. Here, there's no way to know whether there's going to be a secret at any point unless you specifically check. They seemingly just put them in random spots.[/spoiler]
[*][spoiler]The story boils down to just "oh hey look you have a friend now", and then "oh hey look you're no longer friends", repeat for every chapter. It's not interesting, and I found myself asking why it exists instead of actually caring. The ending was really not at all a twist on this, and it didn't give me any sense of satisfaction despite the BS puzzles that lead up to it.[/spoiler]
[*]For the love of god, game, can you PLEASE stop telling me that shift advances time? I know, I just prefer moving back and forth instead. Seriously, why keep hammering on that for the entire game after world 2.
[*]This didn't happen on my second playthrough, but on my first playthrough I softlocked myself and had to quit the game and relaunch it to progress.
[*]I am personally not colorblind, but iirc red and orange are not exactly distinguishable with most types. Two of the line types are red and orange, and there's no way to change them to different colors. So beware colorblind people.
[/list]
It's just a line, except the line will make you cry.
такое обилие вариантов задач при соблюдении всего пары интуитивно усваиваемых правил. поражает воображение! музон только ни к селу легкомыслен
Insanely good puzzle game.
Good
It's an abstract, dialogue-free puzzle game solely composed of differently coloured lights moving along lines and hitting switches. You wouldn't think it could be emotionally heartwarming, and yet...!
Needs its time. Briliant gameplay,
A minimalist and brilliant small puzzle game, whose lovely OST helps create a delightful atmosphere. Sometimes it requires precise timing right, which can be a little bit frustrating, but it's never too hard.
Amazing puzzle game with great aesthetic, the entire game is beautiful from start to finish. The mechanic is easy to understand, overall puzzles aren't difficult and just right. Kudos to the developers for making such amazing short game with just lines. My only gripe with the game is that there's a softlock near the end of the second chapter that forced me to restart the entire game. Hopefully one day the developers will fix this one and only issue and make the reset "hold R" not only reset back to a save states but to actually reset entire room and puzzles.
amazing game for everyone who likes puzzles and wants his brain to be focused.
Great game. I'm still finishing some of the puzzles, but there are a good number of puzzles, they generally stay interesting, adding mechanics at a rate fast enough to keep it interesting but slow enough to fully explore them. Some puzzles are quite challenging (though it still generally only takes a couple minutes to figure them out). Very aesthetic, excellent music and visual design. Also, I don't think I've ever felt sentimental at the ending of a purely abstract geometric/minimalist puzzle game before, but the finale was really well done.
Very creative game with a surprising amount of variety despite how simple it might look at a glance. It was a delightful way to spend a few afternoons!
Enspanntes Schaltungsgame
A good game that won't let me complete it. Will update my review if all the softlock bugs are fixed.
[h1]線形の自機を操作して線状の道を突き進み、他の線形と協力してパズルを解いていく線づくしの壮大なアドベンチャーパズル[/h1]
[h2]概要[/h2]
線状の道を線形の自機を操作して突き進み、道中パズルを解きつつ黄色の星を集めながらゴールを目指すパズルゲーム。ボーナスワールド含め全8ワールドで、パズルの総数は300ほど。黄色の星とは別に緑色の星があり、こちらは隠しアイテム扱いとなっている。メインモードとは別にスコアタックに挑戦するチャレンジモードあり。
ゲームの操作はキーボードとコントローラーに対応。
ストアページでは言語について「日本語はサポートされていません」と記載されているが、オプションで日本語に変更可能。
[h2]良い点[/h2]
・音楽が秀逸。
・ワールドを進めるたびに新しいギミックが登場する。
・隠しアイテムである緑色の星を取得できる高難易度のパズルに任意で挑戦できる。
・マップ画面で緑色の星の位置が白い点として表示される。これによって大体どの辺に隠し通路があるのか予想しやすくなる。
・メニューから「レベル選択」を選ぶことでマップ上のチェックポイントに任意に移動できるようになる。これによって取りこぼした緑色の星を集めやすくなる。（自分はこれについて、緑色の星を全て集めた後で他の人のレビューを見て気付きましたW あのとてもなく広いステージを時間をかけて行ったり来たりしていたのが悔やまれる…）
・スコアタックに挑戦するチャンレンジモードがあり、リプレイ性がある。
[h2]悪い点[/h2]
・パズルの中にはシビアなタイミングを要求されるものがあり、純粋な思考型のパズルゲームを求めている人にはゲームが合わない可能性がある。
[h2]個人的なアドバイス[/h2]
・ゲームを進めていると鍵を紛失したりなどして進行不能バグと思われる状況に陥ることがあるかもしれませんが、該当のパズルのところでリスタートすれば初期状態に戻るのでご安心を。
・よし！緑色の星を全部ゲットできたぞ。と思ったけど実績が解除されない。まだあんのか？→（[spoiler]マップ画面を開き、どこか途切れている箇所がないか見てみる。[/spoiler]）
[h2]感想[/h2]
各ワールドのマップが結構広大で、ゲームをプレイ中は壮大な冒険をしているかのような気分を味わえました。音楽も幻想的なグラフィックによくマッチしており、ある意味芸術作品の粋に達したパズルゲームと言っても過言ではないと思います。面白いなと思ったアイディアは、各ワールドの終盤で道中に敵やギミックとして登場した線形と同伴して協力しながら道を進んでいくところ。よく漫画である敵が味方になると頼もしいという胸熱展開を、まさかパズルゲームで味わえるとは…
ゲームの難易度はただクリアしてエンディングを見るだけならそこまで難しくはないですが、緑色の星を全て取得するとなると結構難しいです。そういう意味で、このゲームはパズル初心者から上級者まで幅広い方におすすめできるゲームだと思います。パズルゲームの中でも紛れもない傑作なので、パズル好きの人にもそうでない人にも是非プレイしてほしいゲームです。

왜 압긍인지 모르겠는 게임
뇌빼고 타이밍 욱여넣는 구간을 남발함
퍼즐 푸는 성취감과 재미는 없고 멍때리면서 이동만 해도 깨짐
그런 부분은 취향이라 치고 넘어갈 수 있지만
설계 미스로 리셋이 안 먹히는 상황 나와서
가뜩이나 지루한 구간을 처음부터 다시 하게 만드는 건 선넘음
难度设计得刚刚好，画面又很治愈。
我记得我最后截了很多图，光就是很美啊。

Très bon jeu, pour ne pas se prendre la tête !
Unbelievably good puzzle game. Feature-rich and easy on the eye, it kept me 100% engaged every minute I played. Without going into spoilers, it even manages to inject some narrative & personality into its mechanics (hell, even the credits are clever). Easy recommend, a joy from start to finish.
Game looks simplistic but is a fantastic puzzler with some unique mechanics. A lot of puzzles will require good execution but failing doesn't make you feel frustrated as resetting is quick and the puzzles are short, but there are a lot of puzzles.
A calming puzzle game that can be played for just a few minutes at a time, but also for much more. The main "story" is very simple, the side challenges not trivial. Quite well done from the game design point of view.
Linelight is exactly what the desription says: An elegant puzzle game!
简约的谜题设计、同时又不太难，很适合琢磨puzzle 设计
Great puzzle game! Very interesting puzzles! Nice and relaxing music! Many thanks to the developers!
Entre luzes e linhas, nunca pensei que esses jogo me faria ter empatia por esses dois conceitos juntos. Com quebra cabeças super gostosos de resolver, essas 5 horas de jogo valeram super a pena. Esse jogo possui mecânicas que a primeira vista, são bem simples, mas conforme o jogo progride, são exploradas de maneira extremamente criativas. Recomendo 100%
Linelight：S-，音乐好听、画面唯美、难度温和（Bonus B的绿色关卡我卡了两个查了攻略 黄色的查了一个 其他都自己做出来了可见还是比较简单的）、关卡设计有意思并且引导非常优秀难度曲线非常非常平滑、没剧情但是有点感动、量大管饱（可以说有三百多道题 而且基本质量都非常在线）、机制独特的一款解谜游戏（原谅我定语这么长）
优点还有关卡赏析可以去看老船长的评论我就不多赘述了（因为我说了也说不到他那个水平QAQ），我就说一说游玩过程中我比较闹心的一点吧（当然这个点完全不影响这部游戏还是很好），就是有几个关卡的timing要求确实有点高了，而且这个游戏的重开有时候会卡在奇怪的地方需要通过R来进行大刷新，就会导致比较长的关卡需要重头来的情况，点名bonus A B中的某些绿色关卡，打起来血压真的很高，就是早早就想出来要怎么做了，然后因为操作问题（虽然这个游戏操作可以说很简单，但是耐不住猪脑过载的时候手跟不上脑子）就要卡一段时间，我个人觉得可以把那几个关卡的timing设置的更宽松些
Good game. Relaxing.
[b] It has a feature that almost all technical doesn't require any word description. [/b] When you interact with them, you'll know what are them naturally.
Spoiler: [spoiler] I even don't know there are green stars until World 4 [/spoiler]
Red was friend all along!?
This game is gem
