Please Draw Responsibly

A ball drops into a test chamber and has to end up in the marked square. Everything between those two facts you draw yourself, in wax, and the crayon runs out. Wood grips, rubber throws, ice refuses to slow anything down, rope sags and catches, balloons rise. A narrator marks each attempt and would rather you did not leave.

How it plays

  1. Drag to draw. The stroke becomes a solid object, and a stroke that touches the scenery is bolted to it.
  2. Pick the material for the job. Wood grips, rubber returns about half of what it takes, ice is frictionless, rope hangs and catches, and a balloon rises the moment you press GO.
  3. Nothing moves until you press GO, so this is a thinking game rather than a twitch one. Watch it fail, adjust the drawing, run it again.
  4. The crayon runs out. Each chamber's allowance is set so more than one solution fits inside it and a lazy scribble does not.
