Hi Conundrumer! I was part of the Line Rider community in the early days making manual tracks under the name Holcomb227. Your dedication is really impressive. It seemed like the community had many perfectionists and/or artists and I wonder what they're doing now.

Holcomb!!! It's great to meet you again! And yes the community still has perfectionists and artists!

Also do you have any of your old Line Rider videos or .sol saves (specifically "The Amazing Nose Manual", "Manuals", "Watch it Now")? If you do, it would be great to get them archived by Rabid Squirrel: https://www.dropbox.com/request/4tqU7np9RJrfu17LvBae

If you want to get in contact, my Twitter is @d_e_lu and my Discord is conundrumer#1409

Unfortunately the computer I used to create most of my tracks and videos has had its hard drive wiped multiple times throughout the years. I did create a few tracks on my friend's laptop (now broken) so I'll check if that data can be recovered.
It's so cool to see these kinds of interactions happen. The size of the internet (and the world) is smaller than you might think! It puts a smile on my face :)
Alternatively: HN is a lot larger than you might think it is.
I just recovered the data from my friend's laptop. Unfortunately I couldn't find any .sol files for Line Rider. :(
