About the Game

Zen Trails is a relaxing, simple sand box in which you can do only one thing: draw lines. When you press play, the lines rotate to create beautiful designs.

There are no puzzles, no objectives. It's simply an environment in which you can create beautiful spirographs, set to the most zen-inducing music and visuals.

Zen Trails is very effective at relaxing and inspiring, as well as reducing anxiety. It gives the mind something to focus on which is low pressure yet still stimulating with a small amount of gentle math and a very satisfying payoff when seeing your designs come to life. And for those players who lived through the 90's, perhaps a little nostalgia if they ever played with a spirograph maker.

I'm a solo dev and I really hope you enjoy this little project of mine.
