Thanks, and that wasn't on purpose. The title was intended to be random. ;)

Maybe. On my touch pad it didn't give any issues.

Not really. I have no problem telling you how to do it, but that removes all the fun. It's a puzzle.

EDIT: also, please don't complain if you don't like the genre. Other people do like it.

Towlrs are games about learning the game mechanics. If you prefer games that pose no challenge at all that's fine. You don't have to play it.
Towlr may frustrate you. This is normal.

I stopped after 18 attempts. I still don't know how to play it. I think some more feedback is needed.
When I write def I mean function.

I needed about 20 tries. First I gave up after about 20 tries but after a few hours I had an accidental brain wave and I solved it the first try.

A million attempts, in my defense I didn't knew what Towlr was (I also cursed you to death Robin, so you might want to check that up with your family's voodoo doctor).

Took me 38 tries to get it right. I didn't click anything until about 5 tries thinking it might just involve cursor position, then I started clicking thinking I needed to surround the +, then around 15 tries I got to the second level by almost accident after figuring out I died instantly after clicking lots, I thought it might involve direction of clicks so I was making lines trying to figure it out, around try 20 I managed to get to level 3 and I figured out the pattern I needed to win, but then I was trying to start it off with 6 fast clicks and it took me awhile to figure out the transition between levels. Then I got it on try 38 :crazy:

It was fun
