Description
Cross-Link is a puzzle game about connections — drawing lines between matching stars to form constellations, then crossing those lines to make them vanish. Each level is a star map waiting to be untangled: pair up the dots, weave your lines across each other, and watch the night sky clear one crossing at a time.
How to Play
- Connect the dots – Tap a colored star, then tap another star of the same color to draw a line between them.
- Cross to clear – When two or more lines cross, all connected pairs disappear. The goal is to clear all stars from the board.
- Plan your moves – The order in which you connect pairs matters. Think ahead to create crossings that clear multiple pairs at once.
- Deselect – Tap a selected star again to cancel, or tap anywhere else on the screen.

Background
This game was made for GameDev.tv Game Jam 2026, and the theme was connections
Inspired by Linkit, a game I made previously, I explored a variation where intersecting lines clears connected pairs from the board.
I bootstrapped the game from kaplay-template and added the features:
- 10 levels, including a tutorial
- A constellation night sky for the dots and the background
- A mute button to toggle the background sound and sound effects
- Autosave feature as you progress levels
- Tweens and animations for the title, level, and win screens
