Blind playthrough. World 6 is longer and more difficult than the others by an order of magnitude I feel...so I've split my blind run of it into two videos. The mechanic used here is strongly reminiscent of the play button from Talos. I like the idea, but its implementation in this game sometimes results in puzzles that are frustrating and timing-based.

Another point of interest here is that after finding only one green diamond in the previous five worlds, I've suddenly found several more of them in this one world. I will go back after finishing this world and find the remaining green diamonds - that will probably take two or three videos to complete.

You can see what puzzle games I have played, plus my queue of games I plan to play in the future on this channel, at the following link: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fm9tcbnA4H2jFhrGaxR2rSaeUUOco5aBBK8W_vqEKss/edit#gid=0

Linelight is a refreshingly inventive, minimalist puzzle-adventure game. It takes the wildly simple premise of "What if everything takes place on a line?" and rockets it into outer space.

Each mechanic is immediately understandable, then gradually combined with familiar elements, leading to an exponentially large array bursting with puzzles, each with a one-of-a-kind solution.

There’s no jump button. There’s no shoot button. The way you move creates a universe of possibilities and one mind-bending experience.

Guide Dash across the game’s rich, clean, and relaxing worlds; Linelight simulates the experience of getting an A+ on an exceptionally hard test while receiving a back massage.

The gameplay is simultaneously unique and intuitive enough that gamers, non-gamers, your technology-illiterate relatives, tweens, rocket scientists, a potato with googly eyes and toothpicks for arms, and even line connoisseurs are all on the same playing field of challenge.*

Welcome to the world of Linelight.

*Okay, maybe not the potato.
