– Straightforward sequel to Canvas Curse
– Kirby rolls forward in a ball at a mild pace
– Influence his movements mainly by tapping him—resulting in a dash forward—and by drawing lines
– When Kirby touches a line he is roughly parallel to at the point of contact, he will travel along the line in the direction you drew it
– This allows him to traverse up and down the fairly open introductory level’s rooms
– If the line is roughly perpendicular, it will act as a barrier and Kirby will change directions
– Creating a sloppy or stray line can send Kirby in an unexpected direction from which you must recover
– Such erroneous lines remain for a set period of time
– 3 levels in the E3 demo
– Each has distinct gameplay
– #1: introductory, get introduced to the mechanics in wide-open rooms
– Level has treasures to collect are tucked away behind false walls and hidden doorways
– Ex: one treasure chest was in a bonus room only unlocked by touching all of the nearby flowers
– Other obstacles included boulders that could only be destroyed by collecting a large star, and then touching Kirby for a few seconds while standing still to build up energy for a special dash move
– Second level is mostly underwater
– In this game Kirby is slightly buoyant
– He will slowly float upward unless pushed down by lines in his way
– This inverts the touch controls (you must draw mostly above him instead of below him)
– Water level has strong currents
– This forces Kirby in a winding path you must nagivate to snag collectibles by frantically drawing lines
– Last stage: Kirby transforms into a slow-moving tank
– Touch waves enemies for Kirby to shoot down while navigating around some simple obstacles by drawing lines for the tank to ride on
– Kirby’s projectiles explode wherever the screen is touched
– Merely touching in a direction was not sufficient
– No traditional Kirby-style power-ups in the demo
