Vector Light

Vector Light is a puzzle game in which you play as a creature made of light that can exist and travel only within light. You revive abandoned light sources by traveling from living lights to dead ones, finding a route that uses the available lights to maximize your score. Light cannot pass through solid obstacles, but it can reflect off them. Lights of different colors do not connect; color crystals and inverters let you change color and reach lights of other colors. The game has up to 80 levels, and completing them all earns the Master Puzzler achievement.

Travel through light

In Travel mode, you click another light to move to it. Whether you can reach it depends on your current light’s strength and color. In some environments, you cannot travel directly, so Jump mode lets you launch yourself toward a reflector or worm hole. You cannot survive in the dark void: if you fail to reach a target, you explode.

Light sources and hazards

The level includes several kinds of lights and other objects:

• Start Light: the light where you always begin; your starting color matches its color. It counts toward your end score.
• Normal Lights: static lights with a set color and travel distance. They count toward your end score.
• Dead Lights: static lights you must reach to revive. A level ends when all dead lights are revived. They count toward your end score unless their range is 1 unit (64 pixels).
• Color Crystals: change your color when you travel through them, allowing you to reach lights of other colors. They do not count toward your end score.
• Worm Holes: send you out through a linked worm hole when you travel through one. They do not count toward your end score.
• Black Holes: pull you in when you get near; reaching the center kills you.
• Dying Light: begins to fade after you travel to it, gradually losing brightness and travel distance. If it dies completely, you die with it and start over. It does not count toward your end score.

Rewind and rewards

You can rewind time with the right mouse button. Rewinding returns you to the light before your current one, breaks their connection and resets their strength.

You earn stars for each level, with more stars awarded for a more correct pattern. Stars unlock additional levels, shiny items, effects, sounds and music, as well as achievements. You can customize your playing experience in the customisations menu.
