One player navigates. One player creates. Linebound is a 2D asymmetric co-op puzzle platformer where one player navigates the world while the other draws platforms in real time. Progress is only possible through communication.
Linebound
SteamOne player draws; the other navigates. Together, you reach each exit.
Linebound is a local, asymmetric, co-operative puzzle platform game for two players. One of you is the Artist, drawing platforms directly into the pages of a living sketchbook in real time. The other player is Sketch: a hand-drawn character who is brought to life inside the book and must hop through its puzzles and platforms.
The Artist sees the world from the outside. Sketch lives inside it. They need each other to progress. With an intuitive, easy to learn gameplay-loop, Linebound puts its focus on player to player interaction. Communication is key, as trust is needed to effectively dot each i and cross each t.
Linebound takes place inside a hand-drawn sketchbook. Pencil-scratched environments, crayon-colored platforms, and doodled creatures fill each page with charm and personality.
Features:
Important: Steam Remote Play Together or Parsec is required for online play, as Linebound does not support it innately.
