mister line [browser]
Mister Line wants to fill the level but each level is a puzzle. Can you help him navigate his brain-teasing world in this new puzzler by ZBlip? (also available as a free Android app).
Never mind... I got it. Two notes: You can mark in "pencil" wherever Mr. Line isn't, so you can work logically instead of linearly. You must go over every bridge, but going under them is optional. (Which in my opinion is horrible design)
Starting to get a bit into the trial-and-error territory, which is kinda meh. But it really needs keyboard controls (I just want to arrow key him around, not have to hold down a mouse button and drag, constantly losing focus), a reset button, and to fix the glitchiness with the pencil marking mentioned above.
The only sound seems to be the beeps when you pick up or use a key. I expected a new sound effect when there was a new obstacle, but no. Seems a bit pointless having sound if that's all there is.
I'm half-way through the challenge levels and I haven't spotted a bridge you don't have to go under, but the visual difference between "bridge" and "parallel walls" is subtle. It would be better with a clearer bridge graphic.
The challenge levels are hard! It would be nice to have a Restart Level button instead of having to go back to the menu.
To Unknown at 12:27 (Oct 28), to restart a level, when one clicks in the first square moved to, it will take one back to one square from the start. From there just move back to the initial square. No need to go back to the menu.
Very buggy. First it wouldn't let me play unless I didn't save progress, then after a few levels the arrow keys stopped working and I had to use the mouse, and finally it just quit altogether. Which is too bad, because I enjoyed the levels I did get to play.
I take it back about the bridges: there's one you don't go under on level 59. Why am I playing them again? Because at some point it was updated, and lost my progress, and now the numbers on the level menus are all screwy. I thought doing a "first time" start would fix it, but it doesn't. Does anyone know how to clear your stats?
Space clears the yellow line, but it doesn't clear the black "pencil marks" I've made all over the board trying to work out the route!
Anonymous at 05:26, reloading the page fixed it when it did that to me.
If you are you looking for a solution or a walkthrough for one of the game links, please have a look in the comments.

Did the 80 levels, now for the 10 challenge ones.
I'm stuck on level 59. Can anyone help me out? Otherwise, it's nice to see zblip again. Thanks Bart!

Fun, but I can't get the sound to work.

To Anon at 16:18 (Oct 25), my arrow keys work.
regarding restarting a level...
i am using arrow keys to move and the space bar to restart the level :)
fun and challenging game!
Yeah, you're right: sound was minimal and didn't kick in until about level eight or thereabouts.
Click anywhere on the yellow line = undo to that point.
