Car-line

Car-line was one of those games you'd find on a Flash portal in the late 2000s. It didn't have a complicated setup or a story. You just opened it in your browser and started playing. The visuals were simple, using clean lines and solid colors, which was typical for the time. It felt like a straightforward puzzle, something to figure out quickly between other tasks.

You control a cursor. Your job is to draw a path for a car to follow from its starting point to a marked parking space. You click and hold the mouse button at the car, then drag to sketch a line. The challenge is that your line cannot touch the walls or any other vehicles already on the map. On some levels, you also need to steer your line over floating tires to collect them before reaching the goal. The game starts gently but introduces tighter spaces and more obstacles as you progress. It feels like a quiet test of planning and a steady hand.
