Panel Curling

Use your mouse to click on the canvas, to try to move the one panel towards the other. As soon as you reach your target, a new one will spawn. The first one is really easy, but once your panel has some momentum, it becomes harder to control. You get points for every panel you reach, and lose points for every click you use.

This is a small experiment in the cursed art of golfing GDScript. Made with just 500 characters of code. Less (code) is more as they say. It was mostly just for the technical challenge, but it ended up being surprisingly fun for me, so I decided to submit it.

To run paste the code below into an empty Node2D scene - no other assets needed - or check the sample project here.

extends Node2D
var n=RigidBody2D.new()
var v=Vector2(20,20)
var r="position"
var s=0:
 set(a):s=a;t.text="%s"%s
var t=Label.new()
func f(a,b=self):b.add_child(a)
func l(j,d,b=600):d.position=Vector2(randi()%b,randi()%b);s+=8
func u(p=v,n=Area2D.new(),c=CollisionShape2D.new(),s=Tree.new()):c.shape=CircleShape2D.new();n[r]=p;s.size=v;f(c,n);f(s,n);n.body_entered.connect(l.bind(n));f(n)
func _init():n.gravity_scale=0;u(v,n);u();f(t)
func _input(e):if e.is_pressed():n.apply_force((e[r]-n[r])*9);s-=1
