Lineguard

He runs. You draw. Keep him alive. Then put the pen down and fight. Lineguard is three games in one, all in a hand-drawn ink style.

RUN A little ink ninja runs across a painted world on his own, and you can't steer him. All you can do is draw. Every line is solid for a few seconds: put one in front of an arrow and it stops, tilt it and the arrow flies straight back at the archer who fired it. Draw under his feet to bridge thorns and pits, or a ramp to send him flying. Time slows while your pen is down, and you only carry a few drops of ink, so every stroke counts.

FIGHT Waves of red ninjas, and your bare hands. Tap an enemy's head, body or legs to strike high, mid or low, chain combos up to x9, counter on the gold, and draw a line to dash through a crowd. Fill the meter and let loose an ultimate: Tornado kick, Ground slam, Spinning blade, Shuriken Rain, Whirlwind or Shadow Clone. Every fifth wave, a warlord.

DUEL One on one against another player, live, best of three. Find an opponent, or invite a friend with a link. If nobody is around, a bot steps in while you stay in the queue, and you can practise against Easy, Medium or Hard bots any time.
