You are brave and awesome for making a multiplayer web game. I think it's interesting that it allows a fair amount of flexibility but one of the dangers of "communal internet drawing programs" is people drawing inappropriate non-family friendly drawings. The rings end up constraining the possible drawing shapes that allows some creativity while getting around this risk!

You made a cooperative drawing game? I also like to leave dangerously :smile:

Simple, yet beautiful. It's fun to draw. I didn't expect such idea in a gamejam - I think I even like it more because of it.

Sorry dude, I had to draw a dick, it is tradition in online multiplayer draw games! :-)

Enjoyed it a lot and people made really good art!

You should post some of the best you can find on this page/in an album!

A zoom feature would be nice as well :-)

Thank you for this game, I really enjoyed it!

@evogengames We made it nearly 24 hours without a penis. It was better than I expected. Glad you enjoyed the game

Thanks @evogengames for completing the required task. Now the rest of us can concentrate on drawing cool animals and other things knowing our creativity is allowed to flow free and not constrained by the tradition! :grin:

wow this is awesome. I can see how others can see that the flexibility can lead to inappropriate images. But nonetheless, a very clever game design!!

This is so neat! I always love drawing tools, and this is a pretty great one to have made in just a few days. Love that it's collaborative - there were some nice drawings already in there when I popped in, and it was heartwarming to think people from all over had added a little bit to the artwork. The UI is fairly intuitive as well, and it was fun to play around with.

Nice idea, the multiplayer was surprising. Well done.

Really cool concept to build images out of, love it!

An interesting idea, but there was no one there at the time so I'm just gonna leave something there

Can't believe you got a working networked game going in Phaser for this. Seriously impressed by that. Great work!

Cool to see a multiplayer game, looks quite active still as well!

I thought this was a clever idea. I just fleshed out some of the drawings that were already there, but I enjoyed it.

Multiplayer compo game... wow! Tried my best to draw the LD xD. Well done!

This entry is quite unexpected.

But I was even more surprised after reading the (VERY simple) server code :)

@fumybulb If you want to make a multiplayer game in 48 hours, it better be simple ;-) I think getting the chat input box to work took 5X longer than the multiplayer.

Nice, fun and unexpected game jam idea. I don't think it fit so much the jam theme but it was nice to try :smile:

@leggy All the shapes are made of loops. Thanks for trying the game.

Very unexpected jam idea indeed. Nice one!

Saw a questionable yet creative drawing that resembled a beige lighthouse but thats all part of the fun. Neat idea.

@mza It is about the 12th "lighthouse" that I have had to demo. These people are really concerned with ship safety.

NGL I drew a "lighthouse"... Can't risk having any sunken ships on this fine canvas of yours!


This is a cool project, and an interesting constraint to only allow circles. It doesn't seem like anyone was playing when I went on, but I could see it being pretty fun with a group of strangers. My only complaint is that the canvas felt a little claustrophobic being unable to zoom out (or I didn't figure out how to do it). Still, it's very cool! Nice job with it!

Also tried to draw dick, turned out as a face instead. Great entry!

Very interesting entry, I ended up doodling quite a bit and enjoyed it :D
Didn't expect an entry like this here!

At first I was like "Ok, what should I do here, it's only drawing", but when I drew an owl I got caught by the game:) Very relaxing experience!

This is a very nice surprise, and it's such a great idea. Also the actual drawing works well. It's so easy to use.

I really find it interesting what was done with the circle slices. I'm a fan of that spider.

While this isn't really a game, it's technically impressive and very cool. This is actually a pretty good environment to launch something like this. It would obviously be mayhem if it got too popular. It was really cool panning around and seeing other people's drawings.

Cool interpretation of the theme, and the circle shapes give the art created with this a unique style. Would love to see a standalone release that supports transparency and exporting to png; this would be a useful tool for whipping up art for future game jams :)

Huh, makes you feel like a child again, drawing in patterns you just see in front of your inner eye!
Super interesting tool I could see myself using to come up with new designs!

It's fun working together on a big picture. It's more a piece of interactive art than a actual game.

This was such a neat idea! Can't add much more to it, it's fun to draw using these restrictions and it's even more fun to draw around other pictures, seeing what players made and creating a collective thing.

InTeReStInG! This is one of these things that perfectly fit the theme yet still manages to be drastically different. The fact that everyone can draw made this a lot more spicy...

Definitely one of the more unique takes I've seen for an LD game. There was no one on when I played, but a collaborative drawing game/chat room seems like a cool idea.

Very unique game! Neat idea, fits the theme very well. Great job!
