About Vector Light

General


You are a creature made of light that can only exist and travel inside and through light itself.

Your task is to revive dead light sources that have been abandoned many years ago, by traveling through alive light sources. By fnding the right pattern that makes fully use of all available lights, your score gets maximized.

Light cannot travel through solid obstacles but can be reflected, use your environment to travel to your destination.

Lights of 2 different colours won't match, change color by passing through color crystals and invertors to reach lights in different colors.

Challenge yourself in up to 80 levels and try your best to get the ultimate victory! The Master Puzzler achievement!

Features


Travel mode
Travel to other lights by clicking on them with the mouse, wether or not you can reach the light depends on your current light's strength and color.

Jump mode
Some environments will not allow you to travel to lights directly, for these situations you can shoot yourself towards a reflector or worm hole, to reach your destination. But beware, as you cannot survive in the dark void. If you can't reach your target, you will explode.

Start Light
Same as a normal light but you always start here, your starting color is equal to this starting light. These are counted towards your end score.

Normal Lights
Static basic lights with an allowed travel distance and a certain color. These are counted towards your end score.

Dead Lights
Static basic lights that have to be revived by traveling to it. When all dead lights are revived the level finishes. These are counted towards your end score, unless they have a range of 1 unit (64 pixels).

Color Crystals
Changes your current color when traveling through it, thus allowing you to travel to lights of other colors. These are not counted towards your end score.

Worm Holes
When traveled trough they come out at a linked Worm Hole. These are not counted towards your end score.

Black Holes
When getting near, the player will be sucked in and when you reach the center, you die.

Dying Light
Once traveled to, they start dying out slowly, meaning their brightness will slowly reduce, and travel distance will become smaller. When this light completely dies out, you go with it, and you start over. These are not counted towards your end score.

Rewinding Time
Everyone makes mistakes every now and then, and there's no doubt you will make a lot in Vector Light, but don't worry, there is a solution to this! You can rewind time by pressing right mouse button. This will send you back to the light before your current light, breaking their connection and resetting their strength.

Rewards


You are also rewarded stars for each level you play, the correcter the pattern, the more stars rewarded. These stars unlock more levels, some shinies, fun effects, sounds/music and achievements! Customize your playing experience in the customisations menu.

Vector Light is a 2D retro/minimalist path/node route puzzle game that's been slapped together with the godawful GameMaker Studio video game construction kit from Yoyogames. It's a modestly clever, if unoriginal puzzle design where you must decide the correct route across a number of nodes, with the goal to reach the end of the pathway along the best route that reduces all the "power" in each node in each level to zero. Considerable effort has gone into the puzzle design, which is laudable, and it should be known that this is well above and beyond most of the GameMaker Studio template flips on Steam. GameMaker Studio is a very poor quality game construction kit, and unsurprisingly results in products that have little to no value as games, especially when compared to the work of professional developers who create genuine products for gamers. Using a video game construction kit requires little to no talent or skill as a game developer. Very often, GameMaker Studio is used to make shovelware and lazy cash grabs. That isn't the case here as the developer has done the noble thing and released their construction kit effort on Steam for free. This shows great belief in their ow…

This game is pretty hard. Oh, you think it's easy? Prove it! Download it! It's free, you've got nothing to lose. Go play it now and show me all the completed levels. I'll wait. 😉

Игра 'Vector Light' - это захватывающий платформер, который подкупает своей минималистичной, но стильной графикой и динамичным геймплеем. Управление персонажем, бегущим по неоновым лабиринтом, интуитивно понятное, а прыжки и скольжения ощущаются отзывчиво и точно. Сложность игры нарастает постепенно, заставляя игрока постоянно совершенствовать свои навыки и искать оптимальные траектории. Разнообразие препятствий, таких как движущиеся платформы, лазеры и шипы, не дает заскучать и требует быстрой реакции. Музыкальное сопровождение идеально дополняет визуальный стиль и создает напряженную атмосферу. В игре нет излишней информации, все сконцентрировано на главном - беге, прыжках и избегании опасностей. Несмотря на кажущуюся простоту, 'Vector Light' обладает глубоким игровым процессом и высокой реиграбельностью. Это отличный выбор для тех, кто любит динамичные платформеры с лаконичным дизайном и сложным, но честным игровым процессом. Рекомендую попробовать всем любителям жанра!

Cool game, with nice and creative "level designs"

A decent f2p puzzle, maybe slightly difficult to get into but when you get a grasp of the mechanics, it's good exercise for your brain.
