Spotting the perspective is not that easy, at least in art, and it's first in 1400's that we understood it properly. Before Filippo Brunelleschi* most things were painted with invalid perspectives.

9+ first try, 3.13 second, 383 third try.

Definitely addicting but too short. Should match you up against peers based off how you did in previous games.


3.75; I'm surprised, as I consider myself to have a poor eye for these things.


This highlights why I'm no good at billiards.


4.62 first try. Higher than I expected


3.07 first try, got it down to 2.35


Hmm. 4. Guess I'm no one special.


very frustrating with a bad mouse


2.59, woo


7


I got 9.26 at first try


12.60, but I didn't know what I was doing in the first few.
