Info
----------------------------------------------------------------
Down The Line empowers you to bring light to the sun !
Use the left mouse click to put down waypoints and create paths for the entities to take. Then, lead them to the sun.
Ranting
--------------------------------------------------------------
I hope you'll enjoy the game, I wanted to make more levels and iterate on the gameplay a bit more but I ran out of time and energy I guess. The game has been tested on Firefox and Chrome.
At first I wasn't so enthusiast about the theme but it led me to dig the question of minimalism, thus I mainly focused on the notion of optimization as I feel that it's at the heart of minimalism. So, even though the graphic design appears minimalist I actually wanted to make a game where the player is the one minimizing, optimizing the way to the sun.
Anyway, have fun and thank you in advance.
Post-compo version
--------------------------------------------------------------
