About This Game

One player draws; the other navigates. Together, you reach each exit.

Linebound is a local, asymmetric, co-operative puzzle platform game for two players. One of you is the Artist, drawing platforms directly into the pages of a living sketchbook in real time. The other player is Sketch: a hand-drawn character who is brought to life inside the book and must hop through its puzzles and platforms.

The Artist sees the world from the outside. Sketch lives inside it. They need each other to progress. With an intuitive, easy to learn gameplay-loop, Linebound puts its focus on player to player interaction. Communication is key, as trust is needed to effectively dot each i and cross each t.

Linebound takes place inside a hand-drawn sketchbook. Pencil-scratched environments, crayon-colored platforms, and doodled creatures fill each page with charm and personality.

Features:

  • Asymmetric local co-op - 2 players, 2 completely different perspectives

  • Real-time platform drawing mechanic

  • 18 hand-crafted puzzle levels inside a living sketchbook world

  • Hand-drawn art style with pencil characters and crayon environments

  • Built entirely around communication and cooperation

Important: Steam Remote Play Together or Parsec is required for online play, as Linebound does not support it innately.
