Draw Climber
When we have the freedom to draw, our minds can run wild with doodles and some games like Draw Climber have incorporated that into gameplay. Many ideas and creations all started with sketches on a page and now those sketches are combing to life to aid a machine. A climber has been created for the purpose of acing and traversing difficult terrain and you need to aid it in accomplishing its goals. For additional motivation, you have a control machine that will be racing alongside and challenging you to make the most of the machine's capabilities which are also based on your creativity.
About Draw Climber
Drawing has been an element in party and video games for quite some time with it playing various roles when it comes to mechanics. This game takes drawing and confines it to a designated space where you can create various lines and shapes for the machine to use. The machine can be very goofy as a result but you can also end up learning something about certain angles and such while you're drawing. When you see it in practice, it can be exciting to see how you doodle fares in the competition, no matter if it ends up winning or losing. Prepare to draw, climber!
How to Play
Draw Climber is a 3D racing game about creating a way for a machine to move using just the mouse. There will be an outlined space at the bottom of the screen where you can click and hold the Left Mouse Button and drag it across to draw. When you let go, your drawing will manifest on your machine. The goal of each level is to beat the other machine in getting through the obstacle course and to the finish line at the end.
The game begins as soon as you press start, but your machine won't start racing until you draw your first drawing. The guidelines encourage you to draw line shapes as those will appear on either side of your machine, attached to rotating wheel points. When the machine starts moving, the lines you've created will start spinning around in an attempt to make your machine move forward and climb obstacles. At any time during the race, you can change your machine's lines by drawing again.
While racing, the course can change by introducing elements like slopes, steps, platforms, and tunnels. There will also be collectibles like coins and speed powerups to help you win.
Tips and Tricks
You have an advantage as your opponent will have the same lines throughout the race. The straighter you make your lines, the more consistent your movement will be. The longer you make your lines, the more ground you'll be able to cover.
