Boltline is a free arcade game made with AI by @jake616, and you can play it right here in your browser.

Boltline is an arcade speed celebration: you, a modern city at golden hour, and electricity in your sneakers.

Hold Shift to sprint — electric afterimages streak behind you as the wind rises. Double-tap Shift to hit Lightning Speed: dense cyan ghosts, crackling aura, the screen smearing with motion lines as you weave through traffic at four times walking pace. Fill your meter with energy orbs and press E to unleash Flash Time — five untouchable seconds where you smash cars out of the way instead of dodging them.

Three glowing time-trial courses thread the district — a straight-down-the-avenue dash, a loop around the park, and a construction gauntlet. Chase par times for stars, hunt every orb hidden across the city, and watch your best times stick between sessions.

A bright, optimistic city block: glass towers, brick apartments, a park with real trees and a fountain, a plaza, looping traffic and street furniture — all wrapped in warm late-afternoon light. Short runs, instant restarts, easy to learn, hard to master at three-star pace.
