About

Glidecraft

Features
Read full description

Glidecraft is a physics-based drawing game where you sketch track lines and watch a ragdoll rider glide across them. Draw freehand with the brush, lay precise lines with the pencil, or use the straight-line tool to build ramps, loops, and jumps. Three line types give you control: blue lines are normal rideable track, red lines give a speed boost, and green lines are scenery with no collision. Hit play and watch your rider navigate the course with realistic Verlet physics. The ragdoll body, trailing scarf, and sled all react naturally to every bump, drop, and curve you've drawn. Features: - Freehand brush, pencil, and straight-line drawing tools - Eraser tool for quick edits - Three line types: normal, acceleration, and scenery - Undo and redo support - 5 rider skins: classic, hotdog, penguin, robot, and snowman - Adjustable playback speed (0.5x, 1x, 2x) - Pinch to zoom, two-finger pan - Save and load multiple tracks - Fully offline — no accounts, no ads, no data collection
