Strange Loop is a puzzle game. The goal of the game is to create one continous loop that wraps around the whole shape. The touches every cell, but might not touch every corner dot. There are hints marked on the board, using those hints and some logical deduction, you can solve the whole loop!
This is inspired by games like Puzzle Loop aka Slitherlink or Loopy. Check out those games for more hints and strategies! See the README.html file for controls and tips.
I loved this. Something about stretching this puzzle concept onto a 3D shape makes it so much more challenging and engaging spatially. Could totally see myself putting on some music and zoning out with one of the weirder shapes. (The vapor-adjacent visual style is wonderful, too.)
Any bugs I ran into had to do with the visuals scaling up to fullscreen but not the controls--stuck with windowed mode and it worked like a charm. Three tiny gameplay things: (1) Right-click to x-out would clear up left-click to toggle the line. (2) I'd have preferred that the user x-outs be visually distinct from the preset ones. (3) I would have liked to see the solution when I gave up.
I like how you expanded Slitherlink to 3D surfaces - I suppose the hints where represented by pictures so they can make sense regardless of the puzzle orientation, it's a nice touch.
I wish there was some say to zoom in and out, otherwise some shapes are too hard to nagivate (torus, suzanne). Also, I would be nice to have some music, or at least some sound effects.

Great work!
