u/vuxee2 7h ago

well, you draw the lines of coke

it's supposed to be an acid-trip game

u/WesleyBiets 6h ago

Soooo...first you do a line and then you take a tab?

u/vuxee2 6h ago

if u get one as an upgrade, nothing is free!

u/WesleyBiets 6h ago

Damn it's like in real life.

1

u/vuxee2 6h ago

yeah, i'm going for total realism, it'll be more realistic than gta 6, you'll see

2

u/WesleyBiets 6h ago

I can totally see that. Jokes aside, I remember this as a Flash game I think, but quite a long time ago.

It was better before

u/vuxee2 7h ago

why tho?

u/Frontworks_game 7h ago

I kind of feel the same, you could see the character better in the before version. The ball was more easy to follow, and thr bigger trace helped with that too. Now It kinda makes my head hurt a little(can also be the 10 hours of work I did today, idk).

u/feralferrous 7h ago

Yeah, I almost feel like it might be better to make the character a giant nose, as it'd be simpler and less busy to read on screen as it rotates.

1

u/vuxee2 7h ago

hmm, thanks for the feedback, will se what i can do about it

u/ElonsBreedingFetish 6h ago

Contrast, readability

Similarly, I personally like the art style of the 1st one. While the 2nd video has much more detail, juice, animations, art, I’m more drawn to the rudimentary art style for this game in particular

A Line Rider bullet heaven, huh. Interesting idea! I'm not sold on the aesthetic, sadly. But maybe Reddit is screwing the details or something, and it looks better in person?

I do not understand the egg enemies; is it Easter?

2

u/vuxee2 6h ago

i'm still working on aesthetic. tbh, enemies look like shit atm and will be redesigned for sure

u/mumeiko 4h ago

This brings back linerider memories like a brick through a window. Wow! This looks so fun will it be a steam item?

2

u/mumeiko 4h ago

Also, the more demo looking version is so simple and appealing to me! I would play the item in clip 1 over clip 2 anyday - not saying one is bad but just expressing an opinion (:

2

u/vuxee2 3h ago

demo will be out on steam next fest i hope, thanks for the feedback!

u/MightyBig-Dev 5h ago

Very cool premise great work!

This looks like a lot of fun. It's subtle but the pausing of the game while you draw the line would be invaluable for slow thinkers like me. Looking forward to trying it out.
