Seeing as my game lacks the required state of readiness, I suppose I shall disgruntled-ly resign from the contest.

Do we vote on this thread, or should someone start a poll?

The idea behind Adhesion is best IMO, but I don't quite understand why sometimes I move millimeters and other times I launch across the screen. Even in exactly the same position after resetting the level, one or the other can happen. It seems to be based on angle, but I can't find a pattern. (Played for 5 minutes)

My little stick in Quarterstick got so big all I had to do was spin in one spot and I hit everything.

If it touches a wall more than once, it will get more than one sticky line. Once you have 5, you get pretty stuck.

I was having to use like 50 lines to reach the goal
