The latest and greatest... with an ERASER!!! Here is the link to Line Rider ZaDa : Line Rider ZaDa Mostly the same as the original line rider, but this one has a very helpful eraser so you can undo mistakes. It also has an "accelerator" to speed up your sledder. The other helpful addition to this version is the flag button. You can use the flag to show the position of the sledder in the game. Nice touch. It is easier to draw straight lines, but still not intuitive. It would...

Sometimes drawing straight lines can be difficult, especially if you
have a trackpad on your laptop instead of a mouse. If possible,
plug in a mouse when playing Line Rider.
The trick to drawing perfectly straight lines is to right-click, then
drag the pencil. (p.s. Ignore the message bubble).
Sometimes it works a bit better if you drag quickly.
Once you can draw staight lines, you can use those lines to create
ramps and jumps in Line Rider. Check out some of the Linerider
movies...

You can get your Line Rider sledder to do a full upside down loop. The trick is that lines drawn from left to right can only act as a floor, and not as a ceiling. So just draw a downramp and then give it a loop...

Line Rider
Couple of tips for getting started:
1. Draw one or two lines at a time. There is no eraser in Line
Rider, so it's worth taking the time to make sure that your sledder
isn't going to wipe out.
2. Try to draw steady lines. I was originally using a trackpad, which was pretty difficult. Using a mouse helped.
3. You can land some of the big falls. Give it a try.
Anyway...

Line Rider is very cool. You should check out some of the videos posted on YouTube. It's a Flash thing that lets you draw ramps and slopes for a virtual sledder to ride on. I don't entirely understand how it does what it does, but it is pretty addictive. You draw (in lines) ramps and other things for a little dude to sled down. The animation is cool.
