9/9/2007 - Line Rider Super Mario Bros. 1-1

If you've never played with Line Rider, it's worth at least a try. It's a simple Flash "game" where you draw an slope for the "Line Rider" penguin to travel in its sled. You can draw the slope in any manner you wish... you can include loops, gaps to jump over, obstacles, etc. It all pretty much follows the physics of gravity and friction, so it looks fairly realistic in motion.

There are plenty of Line Rider videos on YouTube, as you can imagine, some with insane stunts and courses for the penguin to navigate. Today's video, however, puts the penguin in some familiar territory: the first level of Super Mario Bros! I don't know how the artist managed to achieve this, but for nostalgia purposes, this is the best Line Rider vid.
