I'm really looking forward to trying out Line - I think the 1D abstraction of a 2D space is an interesting concept and something I haven't seen before!

You look like the type of person who'd enjoy this jam: WOW JAM

They have a very interesting platform and are even offering prizes xD

No game better encapsulates the idea of puzzle-platformer. There are platformers that have puzzles, and puzzle games that have platforming, but this is the first game in which the actual platforming IS the puzzle. It will test your video game literacy. Very impressed
