Rolling Ellipse

Game Introduction

I was inspired me to make this by @s_federici's wonderful studio "Simplest ellipse drawing algorithm": https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/29609673/ I had to do a lot of experimenting to figure this out, and it was VERY rewarding when I finally came up with the solution :D Feedback is very welcome - maybe I made a mistake with the math, or maybe there is a more convenient/interesting/funny/... way of doing it. If so, I'd love to know.

How To Play
