Sketch Alive - New Game

By Ben Maddox ·

Hi everyone.

New game here. Inspired by my 4 year old daughter loving to draw with some hand held sketch toys. I wanted that but with some added animations.

You draw one line. When you stop for a moment, the game makes a best guess whether you drew a critter, a person, a plant, or a thing, and then animates your drawing based on that guess. If it guesses wrong, tap the right one. There is also a freeform mode if you would rather draw with a stylus or finger without the one-line limit.

You can play Sketch Alive in your browser.

Sketch Alive

Draw one line on a silver toy screen, stop, and watch it come alive. The game guesses whether you drew a critter, person, plant, or thing, then animates your drawing to match.
