'Linelight' Indie Game Trailer Reveals A Minimalist Puzzle World of Lines And Light





In a new trailer for indie game Linelight from award-winning indie studio My Dog Zorro, we get a glimpse at a world of light, color, lines and nothing else. Check out the trailer for indie game Linelight below:


Linelight has 300 levels across six worlds, with relaxing music, deceptively complex gameplay mechanics and an unbeatable design aesthetic that takes minimalism one step further. Your line, the “Dash”, has only one control: “MOVE.”

Color-coded switches can form a bridge, red moving lines are deadly to the touch and secret pathways can help expand your time in Linelight .

Founder and lead designer for My Dog Zorro stated in a press release, “My goal was to take simplification to the extreme, initially for the fun/rewarding design challenge, but eventually because that’s where the most beautiful possibilities dwelled. Linelight ’s lifeblood is in its elegance: every puzzle and every line serve a unique purpose. When I brought all of the game’s components together (e.g., the music and aesthetics), it all came alive! I hope you have as much fun experiencing Linelight ’s elegance as I did creating it.”

Key features include:

Bask in the soft glow of a world made out of straight lines
Experience 6 hours of pure, unadulterated gameplay
Solve more than 250 different puzzles across six unique worlds
Enjoy a Zen-like, ethereal soundtrack, and enter a state of flow
Explore the intricacies of each world to uncover secret challenges
Linelight will hit Steam, Playstation 4 and Xbox One in early 2017, though a release date is yet to be announced.

Microsoft upgrades its Surface tablets to Windows 10

Consumers interested in buying one of Microsoft's Surface tablets will now find it with Windows 10 preinstalled. Microsoft's  online page  for its lower-cost Surface lineup shows that the tablet now comes with Windows 10 Home edition. The page for the pricier and beefier Surface Pro 3  indicates that they're outfitted with Windows 10 Pro edition. Microsoft has been on a tear to push out Windows 10, partly to make up for the poor response to Windows 8 and partly to get as many Windows users as possible all on the same platform. The company has been offering Windows 10 as a free upgrade to Windows 7 and 8.1 users for the first year. Last Thursday, Microsoft announced that the new OS was  running on 14 million devices  since its official launch the previous day.
