What a Leg
What a Leg
What a Leg is a creative racing game designed for players who enjoy combining artistic input with competitive mechanics. The core experience revolves around a race where the participants start without any limbs. You are responsible for drawing the legs that will carry your runner across a variety of obstacle-filled parkours. Each section of the track presents unique terrain challenges that require specific leg shapes to navigate efficiently. A shape that works well on flat ground might fail when faced with high blocks or deep gaps, forcing you to adapt your drawings in real-time to maintain speed.
The game supports both solo play against online opponents and a local two-player mode. In the single-player experience, you focus on outdrawing and outrunning digital rivals. The two-player mode allows for direct competition with a friend on the same machine, adding a layer of social interaction to the drawing mechanic. Because the parkours change as you progress through different levels, the gameplay remains focused on quick thinking and spatial awareness. You must observe the upcoming obstacles and decide whether a long, thin leg or a short, powerful one will provide the necessary leverage to move forward.
Success in this environment depends on your ability to visualize how a 2D shape will interact with the 3D environment. The race is a constant cycle of drawing, testing, and refining. If your runner gets stuck, you must quickly provide a new set of legs to get them back into the competition. The variety of blocks and hurdles ensures that no single drawing will work for the entire race. This creates a rhythmic loop of observation and creation that defines the competitive atmosphere.
Each session is a fresh start where the goal is simply to reach the finish line first. There are no persistent upgrades or currency systems to manage, keeping the focus entirely on the drawing mechanic and the race at hand. The game provides a straightforward competitive outlet for those who want to test their reflexes and their ability to solve physical puzzles through simple mouse or keyboard inputs.

How to Play
To begin your first race in What a Leg, you must use your mouse to draw a shape in the drawing area. This shape will immediately be attached to your runner and used as their legs. In single-player mode, the goal is to outpace your opponents by drawing the most efficient shapes for the current terrain. If you encounter a high wall, you might need to draw a taller or more hooked shape to pull your character over the top. If the ground is flat, a simpler, more balanced shape often provides the best speed.
When playing in two-player mode, the mechanics shift slightly. Both players will draw their legs at the start. Once the race begins, you will use your assigned keys—W, A, S, D for the first player and the Arrow Keys for the second—to manage your movement and switch between leg types. This adds a layer of coordination to the drawing process.
As you move through the levels, the parkours will become more complex. You must stay focused on the screen to see when the terrain changes. A quick click and drag with the mouse allows you to replace your current legs with a new design at any time. Reaching the finish line first is the only way to secure victory and move on to the next challenge.
