Dancing Line Community Edition
A downloadable DLCE for Windows and macOS
Dancing Line: Community Edition is a remake of the official Dancing Line game, with rewritten main code for a smoother experience. The game includes over 90 levels! In addition to official levels, it also includes dozens of carefully selected fan-made levels. DLCE features GAS account system, allowing players to easily sync their progress across different devices via cloud saves. Furthermore, we've adapted the Apple iOS version to include various native system features, such as Game Center achievements and leaderboards, iCloud saves, custom game icons, iPad landscape mode, and system text accessibility settings.

I have a suggestion that I think could give DLCE a LOT more replayability in the future.
What about adding a separate community levels section where people can upload and play their own levels?
I know DLCE already includes fanmade levels, but from what I understand those have to be selected by the developers first. I think it would be really cool if there was also an open section where anyone could publish a level, similar to how Geometry Dash handles user levels.
And I don't mean replacing the current system. The levels that are already in DLCE could stay exactly as they are. You could have the normal/featured levels that are selected by the team, and then a completely separate "Community Levels" section.
That way it wouldn't really matter if some community levels are bad, weird, memes, experimental, etc. They wouldn't be mixed with the actual DLCE levels. People who don't care about them could just ignore that section.
There could eventually be basic stuff like search, newest, popular, likes, favorites, difficulty and maybe a featured section where the developers can pick especially good community levels.
Obviously moderation would be needed because if anyone can upload things, eventually people WILL upload inappropriate stuff or spam. But I don't think that's a reason to completely avoid the idea. Reports and some restrictions could handle a lot of that.
I think the biggest advantage is that DLCE would basically stop having a limited amount of content. Right now the developers have to choose and add new levels themselves. With an open community system, people could be making new levels all the time.
Geometry Dash is obviously a different game, but I think its community level system is a huge reason why people are still playing it after so many years.
Dancing Line feels like it could work REALLY well with something like this, especially because people could do much more than just make a path. Music synchronization, environments, animations, camera changes, obstacles, etc. could lead to some insane levels if the editor was powerful enough.
I know something like this would probably be a huge amount of work, especially the servers/editor/moderation side, but I genuinely think it could be one of the biggest things DLCE could add.
Basically:
Keep the current curated levels, but also let the community go crazy in a separate section.
I would honestly spend way more time playing DLCE if I could just open the community tab and see what random thing somebody made that day.
i need help with the captcha on the register page AND THE WEBSITE IS IN CHINESE
Now the samsara
It would be great if you released a Linux version of the game; it works perfectly for me on Debian using Wine.
I doubt it'd be hard for them, seeing as Unity has Linux support
