ABOUT THE GAME

Draw a line,
Play and check the movement.

``Line Rider'' is an interactive toy in which a sled rider runs along a line drawn by the player. Create a course with the pencil or straight line tool, proceed with the physics calculations with Play, and return to editing with Stop. Rather than chasing a set goal, the focus is on the back and forth between drawing and playback itself.

01

Draw a course with a pencil and straight line tool

When you draw a line with the pointer, that line becomes the course for the sled rider. In addition to the pencil, it has a straight line, eraser, selection, movement, and zoom, so you can adjust the position and shape of the line even after drawing it.

02

Differential use of line direction and single-sided collision

Lines have a direction; if you draw them from left to right, they act as a floor, and if you draw them from right to left, they act as a ceiling. The black side will collide with the rider, and the colored side will pass, so even if the shape is the same, its movement will change depending on the direction you draw it.

03

Check the movement by going back and forth between playing and stopping

You can advance the physics simulation with Play and return to editing with Stop. You can move the timeline to see any point in time, and onion skins can overlay the rider's trajectory.
