Very unique idea and gameplay. I got stuck very early on unfortunately. This is a game I'll definitely come back to :)
This concept is awesome! Can't even say anything about it, I am just baffled how good of a twist on 1-dimensional games this is!
I only had a few problems, which are harder to solve in just a jam, but if you were to expand this game:
Oof, I've got no clue what to do to make it work with colourblindness... Understood about the door effects though, I'll ramp them down. Thanks for playing =D
It's certainly a hard task to tackle, maybe the colour could shine a bit outside of the line? Or fill colors with patterns aswell. Tweaking color saturation could also help immensly!
Interesting concept !
I mean we thought about the 1D concept but didn't know how to make it playable.
You managed to did it. So a big congrats for that !
I quite did not get what I was doing in some levels but I get into it for sure.
Maybe add a little tutorial based on "how we can detect walls ahead and avoid them" and little tips that will help the player progress ?
Good submission anyway :)

Super trippy but really cool! One of the more unique games I've played.
This was a brilliant concept, though it was a bit too tricky for me. I kind of forgot about it until I was listening to music and then out of nowhere came this booming glitchy music! For some reason the music had activated again, and it seriously spooked me, so I thought I might as well rate it now.
Uh oh, I’ll look into this! Also, looks like you posted twice, I’m deleting the second one to clean up =)
I like the idea, well done! One thing I think maybe could improve the clarity, is to make the grey walls always show at the end of the line. Right now the ray just stops it seems like. (It seems to be the levels borders) If you understand what i mean ;)
Yep I do. Nice idea, I’ll see how it looks in practice!
Despite what other people are saying this my personal first time of finding a game with 1 dimension and I found the concept to be extremely original. The narrator dude sounded really creepy so nice job on that. I found the game quite difficult and it took me a while to finally understand what I was supposed to do but still, nice job!
Really cool game , my favorite between the 1D games in this jam.
I loved sigillis, i love Tunnel View X)
you made really different game who are really interesting. Good job
i'll go to see your other work :)
This game right here! WOW! The fact that a 1 dimensional being has to venture and solve puzzles in 2D world is mind bending. It was hard for me to really understand what was happenning at first but when I got the jist of it, it became a mental challenge for me. Loved the voice-acting and music too! Great game!
this game entices me... am preserving this game in my collection...
all the best for the rest of the jam

OK, so after multiple attempts at trying to play this game I stuck my younger brother in front of it and told him to have a go.
He proceeded to blitz through it, having revelations about space that I couldn't: nothing on the screen made a jot of sense to me. Less that 'I can't understand the puzzle', more 'I can't understand the screen'.
When I asked him what the heck was going on, I got answers including but not limited to:
"It's just some four-dimensional time cube stuff"
"See, you're disadvantaged because you don't have aphantasia and so you're used to perceiving things you can't see"
"Oh! I get it!" (get what damn it, GET WHAT!?)
Having now been walked through how the game works by him like I was a four year-old, I now have a greater understanding of 1 dimensional perception and an insufferably smug younger sibling.
Great stuff.
He he, thanks for sharing your story!
Incredibly unique game! It was pretty difficult and i did get stuck a lot but hey, i am used to living in 3 dimensions so it was a given :D
Great job!
Simple concept, superb realisation, creepy narrator. Challangeble and fun game, with adequate difficullty curve, well done!
One of my fav, a unique take on the theme and a great design!
This idea is so cool!! It's very difficult, too. Can't really get pass level 5, but I still live the overall idea and execution :)
Oh no! This is supposed to be a tutorial level, so I'd better up my game! I've got some ideas to make it more obvious, but I can assure you that all of the levels are possible.
This game messed with my head! First few levels I was just moving randomly, but I think at the end I was starting to get the hang of it. And some of those levels were just crazy! Amazing work!
I saw your comment saying you might want to expand the game, so here's something I noticed: some of the levels, especially a few of the mirror ones, the player was just trapped in a little cramped area, so the only thing you could do was turn. This made it pretty easy to just 'stumble' into the correct answer by spinning until all the doors opened, without really knowing solving the puzzle.
Yep, I'll be opening up some of those areas, and making some multi step puzzles. I was scared that it'd be too tough, so you always started in the right place. Instead I'm going to give you more freedom to explore, and start you in a place that shows you the important details of the level, instead of starting you on the first step of the puzzle. I'll still try to ease you into it though, and I'll probably pad the game with a few more intermediate levels before throwing you into the deep end. I'd love to know what you think of this, my mind is buzzing with ideas for improvements!
Wow, super interesting! It's like looking at a 2D world through 1D lens. Working out the environment in complete "darkness" is so much fun! That's an awesome take on the 1D, completely different from what I came up with. I also really love the mirrors. Outstanding job!!
Justcamh! I always like your games! This one is very trippy and cool. Great voice acting as well~ The music fits too. While playing I was trying to figure out what were the full shapes in the darkness haha. You definitely took the theme into a unique direction! 5 stars!

Thanks for playing =)
