A downloadable game for Windows

The Linear Game is a short side-scroller adventure game featuring a being called "The Explorer" and various other critters that will guide them through their goal. Their mission is quite simple: they have to walk all the way through point B and finish the game. This is all they need to know.

Outside of the game context, The Linear Game is a fun little practice project I developed while working on my other bigger project, .defrag. The bulk of the game can be finished in less than 10 minutes, if you exclude any potential side activities.

The available build does not contain RPG Maker's trademark Runtime Package (RTP) and the good news is you won't need it. :D Just extract the archive, click on the executable and have fun!

SPOILER: This game also contains a deliberate hidden tribute/reference to Mortis Ghost's OFF. Happy hunting!
