DRAW-TO-DRIVE RALLY

Sketchwheel Rally

Draw a wheel that matches the next terrain. Redraw during the live race before Fia reaches the finish.

Sketchwheel Rally

Draw a wheel for the next terrain, read how its measured shape changes the race, and redraw when the route changes. Sketchwheel Rally turns wheel geometry into a choice between momentum and control.

World and Mission

Thirty rally courses cross flat road, stairs, mud, tunnels, gaps, ice, and wind. The vehicle moves continuously, but its progress depends on whether the current drawn wheel suits the upcoming terrain.

Each course uses an authored terrain sequence and obstacle position. The objective is not to draw a pretty circle every time; different sections reward different proportions.

How the Systems Work

Draw the wheel in the visible pad with a pointer or finger. The game measures roundness, height, width, grip, and speed from that shape, then mounts it on the moving vehicle.

A round wheel clears flat road; stairs need height; mud and ice need grip; tunnels and gaps check width. Gap clearance requires width; wheel speed affects performance during the crossing, and a strong pass in later chapters can grant a brief boost. Wind checks for a narrow wheel.

A profile that suits the current terrain keeps momentum. A poor match slows, slips, collides, or fails the obstacle while the rival continues.

Workshop upgrades provide modest speed, tolerance, or control support. They do not turn one universal wheel into the correct answer for every terrain.

How to Play

Choose an unlocked rally and read the terrain sequence.
Draw a closed wheel shape for the first section.
Watch the wheel rotate and compare the vehicle's response with the terrain cue.
Redraw for later sections when the required profile changes, and reach the finish before the rival.

Strategy Tips

Use a simple deliberate silhouette because tiny decorative bumps reduce the measured profile.
For stairs, emphasize vertical height; for a tunnel, lower the top while keeping enough width.
A wide gap wheel can be poor in wind, so redraw instead of forcing one design through both.
Observe which measured trait failed and adjust only that trait on the next attempt.

Campaign and Difficulty Growth

The first courses isolate flat road and stairs. Later chapters add mud, ice, wind, tunnels, gaps, and mixed courses that require several redraws.

Thirty authored sequences change terrain order, obstacle spacing, course shape, and rival pace.

Developer Design Note

The wheel is visibly attached to the vehicle, rotates with travel, meets the ground line, and faces the direction of motion. Draw coordinates and rendered shape share one scale on phone and desktop. The complete interface uses one centered logical layout with a 920-pixel maximum. Phone, landscape, and desktop views scale the same controls, hit areas, artwork, and game coordinates together instead of stretching individual pieces. Touch, mouse, and keyboard therefore act on the same legal state. The Main poster and Start Game action remain separate from Stage management, while Stage selection, Battle, dialogs, and Result keep their own bounded content and return path.

FAQ

How many races are in Sketchwheel Rally?: There are 30 authored races across six chapters, with five races in each chapter.
What wheel works on ice?: Use a grippy profile: the game checks grip for ice. A smooth round wheel is not automatically the best match.
Where is my progress saved?: Race clears, bolts, upgrades, lens state, and best times are saved in this browser. They do not sync to another browser or device.
Can I redraw during a rally?: Yes. Redraw before the next terrain section when its needs change.
Does the rival use my wheel?: No. The rival sets race pressure; your result depends on the shape you draw.
