Latchline

Swing through a neon city at night as a tiny spark-bot on a light-tether.

Hold to latch onto the nearest light. Let go to fling yourself forward. Release in the gold window for a perfect: you speed up, sparks fly and your chain grows. Miss, and you bleed speed. Fall, and it's over.

Every day is a new course. Everyone gets the same city that day, from Neon Square through Lamp Row, Crane Yard and Canal Docks, all the way to Long Bridge. Learn it, chase your best, keep your streak alive, and share your result.

Features

•  One-button controls: mouse, Space or touch
•  A fresh daily course, the same for every player
•  Perfect-release chains that speed you up
• Skip bonus: fly past lights without grabbing them for big points
• 8 neon districts, each with its own anchors and colours
• Day streaks, personal bests and a shareable result
• Hand-made art and synthesized sound, all built for this game

Controls

•  Hold mouse, Space or touch: grab the target light (it's the white one)
•  Release: let go and fly
•  M: mute
•  C: copy your result

Tips

•  The rope turns gold when it's time to let go.
• Lights you pass go dark, so commit to your line.
• Grabbing a light while you're above it is risky. Approach from below.

This is an early playtest build, so feedback is very welcome in the comments: where did you die, and did you come back for another run?
