What is the Random Shape Generator?
The Random Shape Generator creates a closed SVG path that is ready to use in Cutle. Everything is generated in your browser, so there is no file upload or shape library to manage.
How to generate and play a shape
- Choose Simple, Standard, or Complex.
- Select Random Shape to create a new preview.
- Select Load Shape to open that exact path in the game below.
- Drag a line across the shape and try to divide it into two equal areas.
Changing the algorithm does not replace the current preview. Select Random Shape when you want to generate another outline with the newly selected algorithm.
Available algorithms
Simple
Simple produces smooth superellipse-based shapes. These outlines are rounded, balanced, and easier to read when you are learning how different cuts affect the score.
Standard
Standard uses Cutle’s original random-shape algorithm. It combines an uneven outline, a changing aspect ratio, and one stronger feature to create an asymmetric challenge.
Complex
Complex combines several controlled harmonic waves. The result has more peaks and valleys while remaining one closed outer contour without holes.
Local generation and custom links
The generated path is placed in the game’s d query parameter only after you select Load Shape. This reloads the iframe with /play/?d=...; it does not save the shape to your daily progress or upload it to the Cutle API.
Custom-shape URLs can appear in browser history or copied links. Do not use path data to encode personal, confidential, or sensitive information.
