Note the "share" link doesn't share a specific challenge for others to try, which would be much cooler, instead it just shares to main page

Cool idea, thanks

A modern take on Matthias Wandel's classic [0], which has you guess a variety of geometric attributes (e.g. angle bisection, centroid locating, shape regularization), not just simple partitioning of a line. [0] https://woodgears.ca/eyeball/index.html

Oh that version actually made sense. Going back to our newer game, I realized that I am supposed to figure out where the number given should fall on the line. A case study in modern useability - looks a lot cooler, can't figure it out.

idk, it only took me one click to figure out what the goal was and how I was being judged (beat the average). I feel like that's part of the puzzle. Sort of similar to Baba is You. Figuring out the goal is part of the puzzle.
