Linearity
A downloadable Linearity for Windows and Linux
LINEARITY: show me how you play and I will tell you who you are!
Linearity is a companion puzzle game: create lines, as many and as complex as you can. Just turn the blocks to make them connect until you have a line without any breaks.
4 game modes:
- 42 to You: you have 42 seconds to play, and will get a feedback based on your style of play.
- 0-100: all the time you want, but only 100 moves to create the best sequence of lines.
- Franticity: just a few seconds, but you get a little more time for each line you make. Better lines give you more extra time.
- InfiniChill: play how you want for as long as you want and just have fun and chill on your terms.
While you play you can enjoy some fantastic music: not a quick loop but a full song: Pointillistic by Bzur!

It's really great, a simple fun game I liked it a lot. I wish there was an app so I can play this when I'm bored on the go.
Thanks, happy you liked it :)
Fun fact, Linearity started out specifically as a mobile game on Android some 12 years ago, but with time the growing requirements for keeping an app on the store and issues with tracking compatibility across OS versions and devices made maintaining it (and other projects I was working on) unwieldy for a hobby developer. Which is a pity because I really loved how touch controls turned out (and that's why I remade it in a desktop version, not as good as the original but still nice to have around)
I use a 32-bit Linux system. Can you offer a 32-bit export for Windows or Linux?
Hi! I checked a bit but unfortunately I don't think I would be able to set all that was needed to develop such a version properly, sorry. Thanks for asking, though.
