Doodle CubHow to play Doodle Dots Love
- Drag to draw a line. Lines are solid: they rest on ledges and pegs, roll, tip, push and ride on moving parts.
- When you lift your finger, everything falls. Make the pink dot and the blue dot touch.
- Ink is limited. Use less ink for more stars: the marks on the ink bar show the 3-star and 2-star lines.
- Some levels cap how many lines you get, and hatched zones take no ink at all.
- Pink gears turn at a steady speed: the arrows on the dashed ring show the way and the pace. Crates are loose; grey ones are heavy.
- Keep the dots off yellow spikes and on the poster. Stuck? Retry: your last try stays as a faint guide.
About this game
Doodle Dots Love is a draw-to-solve physics puzzle printed like a two-colour riso poster. Every level has a pink dot and a blue dot; you draw lines, the world falls, and the dots have to meet. Five worlds of ten handmade levels add a new idea each time: Press teaches ledges, pegs and pushes, Spikes adds hazards, line caps and no-ink zones, Motion brings moving platforms and see-saws, Warp adds portals, bounce pads and ice, and Gears adds turning gears, rocking bars and loose crates. Stars come from the ink you save, and beating the par ink earns a black dot. Stars open new worlds and the Blueprint and Night print themes; par dots open Gold ink. If you reload, the level comes back with your last lines as a guide.

Questions
Is Doodle Dots Love free?
Yes. It is free to play in your browser, with nothing to download and no sign-up.
How do stars work?
Any meeting earns 1 star. Use at most 25% more ink than par for 3 stars, or less than half way from there to the full ink budget for 2. Beat the par ink itself and the level gets a black par dot.
How do I open new worlds?
Spikes opens at 18 stars, Motion at 42, Warp at 70 and Gears at 100. Inside a world, clearing a level opens the next one.
Can I draw while things move?
Yes. Physics starts when you finish your first line, and you can keep drawing as long as you have ink and lines left.
What happens if I reload the page?
Your stars, par dots and theme are saved in this browser. The level you were on comes back paused, with your last lines shown as a faint guide.
Can I play on a phone?
Yes. Draw with a finger; Pause, Map, Retry and Next sit in the bottom corners, out of the way of the poster. It plays upright or sideways.
