Description
The goal of the game is to fill at least 75% of the game field, you can do this by dragging lines and creating areas without balls. When you press the game field and move the mouse you will see a transparent horizontal or vertical line when you release the mouse the line will animate until it touches an other line, when a ball hit the line during the animation you lose a life. If the animation is done and you created a rectangle without ball you successfully filled a area. Every level adds 1 ball to a maximum of 15. You can cancel a line in 3 ways you wll see that the drawing tool disappears, a) move the mouse outside of the play field b) move the mouse on top of a other line or a filled area c) move the mouse back to the point where you started the line
How to Play
Use the left mouse button to draw lines

Quinn's Review: There was a little blue and black game on the Amiga called Bally II (I never did find out of there was a Bally I) which gave me many, many enjoyable hours when I was a very young gamer - it was one of my very first games, and I loved it. And so I have a great fondness for games like this. This means I expect a Bally clone to allow me to relax, like I did in my childhood, and Isolate Area does exactly that. It's a new game from a novice coder, it doesn't add anything to the basic gameplay, but it does what I need it to do: it lets me relax. The colours are surprisingly nice. Giving specific balls particular benefits if you can isolate them is clever. The pace of the game is perfect. f you die I'd like to continue from that point, as this isn't really a challenge game, it's a relaxation game, and some really soothing, mellow backing music would set it off delightfully. But this bare bones implementation of the classic is fine for me to while away a little time on.

Higher % fills should earn a lot more points than they do. Feature request: filling over 90% on levels 15 and higher should gain you an extra life.

@mdcastle: The line starts where you click and goes either up AND down or left AND right from there, depending which way you drag.

The idea is based off an arcarde game called Qix which was remade onto 8 bit machines under the title Zolyx, its from the very early 80's

Nice game, but please make the controls a bit better.
