A new browser game from WOMBATSOFT 84.
What happens when you take a blank screen, a handful of colours, some ridiculous drawing challenges and a game that isn’t afraid to insult your artistic abilities?
You get THE LINE.
A simple, slightly ridiculous drawing game where you’re given a random challenge, pick your brush and attempt to create something resembling what you’ve been asked to draw.
Sounds easy, right?
Think again.
Draw a dinosaur. Sketch a UFO. Design a robot. Or attempt something completely absurd.
Once you’ve finished your masterpiece (and we use that word very loosely), hit DONE and prepare for the game’s verdict.
And don’t expect any sympathy.
No Scores. No Coins. Just Terrible Art.
THE LINE isn’t about winning, collecting points or unlocking achievements.
It’s about having a bit of fun.
Featuring:
🎨 Classic ZX Spectrum-inspired colours.
✏️ Different brush shapes and sizes.
🌗 Light and dark drawing modes.
🎲 Hundreds of random drawing challenges.
😈 Sarcastic comments about your artistic efforts.
📱 Mouse, touchscreen and mobile support.
🖼️ Save and share your questionable creations.
🕹️ A few hidden surprises along the way.
And whatever you do…
DON’T CLICK THIS LINK.
Seriously.
A Little Retro Inspiration
Like my other projects, THE LINE takes some inspiration from the computers and games I grew up with.
There’s a little ZX Spectrum influence, some deliberately simple presentation and a healthy dose of nonsense.
No complicated menus. No unnecessary distractions.
Just pick up your imaginary pencil and draw something terrible.
Give It a Go!
THE LINE is an ongoing project, with new challenges, sarcastic responses and improvements being added along the way.
It’s completely free to play in your browser, with nothing to install.
So, fancy yourself as the next Picasso?
THE LINE might have something to say about that.
