Prototype

Two lanes. One touch. No time to hesitate.

Switchline tests a readable two-lane runner where a single tap changes position and every clean barrier increases the sense of flow.

Switchline

A reflex game built around anticipation.

The player moves between two clear lanes. Obstacles are simple, but the decision window gets tighter as pace and visual rhythm build.

Energy cores, clean-clear streaks, and Flow states are being tested as ways to make mastery feel stronger without adding control complexity.

The prototype loop

01

Scan

Read the upcoming barrier and available lane.

02

Switch

Tap to move between the two paths.

03

Clear

Pass cleanly and collect energy when the route allows.

04

Flow

Build a faster, brighter state through consecutive reads.

What the prototype must prove.

Tap between two lanes, read the next barrier, collect energy cores, and turn clean clears into faster Flow states.

01

Readability

The next decision must stay clear even as speed rises.

02

Rhythm

Switching should feel paced and intentional rather than random.

03

Escalation

Flow needs to intensify the run without turning the screen into noise.

Status

Still under mechanic review.

Switchline is being evaluated beside other compact concepts. The final theme, progression, economy, platforms, and release plan remain open until the core loop earns a production slot.
