About This Game

A physics puzzle game where you draw the path. Sketch lines on screen to guide a ball through obstacles and into the goal. Every stroke matters — angle, length, and position all affect how the ball moves through each hand-crafted level.

How to Play

Draw lines by clicking and dragging on the screen. The ball is affected by gravity and will roll or bounce along your lines. Guide it into the glowing goal to complete the level. You have a limited number of lines per level. Think before you draw — plan the path that uses the fewest strokes and beats the level timer for a higher star rating.

History & Origins

Physics-based puzzle games trace their roots to the Incredible Machine series (1992), which challenged players to build Rube Goldberg-style contraptions from a toolbox of parts. The joy of watching a complex chain reaction unfold became a genre staple, evolving through titles like Armadillo Run and World of Goo.

Drawing mechanics entered the mainstream with games like Line Rider (2006), where players sketched slopes for a sledder to ride. The intuitive nature of drawing as input — everyone knows how to sketch a line — made these games immediately accessible while allowing for surprising depth through emergent physics interactions.

Gravity Rush combines both traditions: the tactile satisfaction of drawing with the problem-solving depth of physics puzzles. Each level is a spatial challenge with multiple valid solutions, rewarding players who think creatively about angles and momentum rather than following a single intended path.
