How to play Doodle Man
Nothing here needs explaining twice. The controls are listed in full in the table below — there are only a handful of them. Portrait layout: hold the phone the way you normally do, or play it centred in the page on desktop. The second run is always better than the first — that is the whole learning curve.
Controls
| Input | Action |
|---|---|
| Mouse / trackpad | Draw and colour |
| Left click | Pick a tool or colour |
On mobile: Tap and swipe directly on the screen. The game is built for portrait, so you can play one-handed without rotating your phone.
Why it is worth playing
Doodle Man is the kind of game that fits into a gap between other things. Two minutes is a real session, and so is an hour. It is not trying to be anything larger, and it is better for it.
