You draw lines. A little bloke sledges down them. That's it. It has a similar hypnotic effect to Lemmings. Recommended!

That is fun!

It'd be even better if it was continuous play: you could continue to draw the path as he's moving down it. Definitely increase the rate at which you can get to used to the physics; having to start over sucks.

Awesome!

Damn, over a million hits in a week...

There's one bug, the little bloke doesn't follow the line as it's drawn if the line intersects itself. In this example, I created a loop and he goes around it but doesn't leave by the trailing bit and instead goes up the loop again. Shame, really.

Some people are far too good at this...

Some people have way, wayyyyyy too much free time.

I also liked this one, this one, and particularly this one.

Does anybody know where on my hard drive these files are being saved? If I could find the data, maybe I could analyze it and write my own little program to generate the surface data for him to slide on...
