PLEASE ALLOW FOR SOME LOADING TIME I didn't set up a proper loading screen so expect a bit of gray slate at start

I dabbled around some times ago with the idea of Qix, a game where you go around tracing closed lines on a blank surface to reveal the undelying image. I could image it being kind of a revolutionary concept at the time and a technical feat to booth.

Today, it's only a nice opportunity to impose a twist on it, projecting the once flat play field on a rounder shape with some nice shading. The original series went on to spawn some "sexy" clones to keep gamers interested, my remake will for now stop short of it ;)

Play with WASD or touch controls (you'll find a basic touch pad in the bottom right), and drive your "drawing point" around. The goal is to "reveal" a percentage of the surface without running out of time. A poor design choiche put these infos on the back of the sphere, so you'll have to drag around with mouse or touch to view them.

Enemies can bother you only when drawing new lines and can do no more than setting you back a bit.

In-game interface is minimal at best, when I'll be able to, I'll be back to polish and add some more mechanics like a life count and a boss enemy.
