Super Sketch Bob

About

Super Sketch Bob is a 2D action platformer where you use a magic pencil to draw ladders, bridges, and trampolines to navigate levels. You play as Bob, a doodle character who discovers a magical pencil, only for his sister Liz to snatch the eraser and start deleting parts of their sketchbook world. Your goal is to restore erased areas by drawing structures while dodging obstacles and solving environmental puzzles. The game focuses on single-player action with a mix of platforming and creative problem-solving. What sets Super Sketch Bob apart is its playful twist on sibling rivalry. Liz’s motives aren’t purely malicious, adding depth to the conflict as you uncover the story behind their feud. The drawing mechanics encourage experimentation, letting you reshape levels in real-time. Released in March 2023, it runs on PC and Linux, offering a concise but inventive experience for fans of indie platformers.
