Last update : made a better lamp in front of the bike

Here is my first Pico 8 game, it's a "physic" bike game, a bit like the "Trials" series. I tried some experimental "distance field" collision and it work prety well.

  • 7 levels of increassing difficulty
  • 15 collectibles per levels
  • Time clock for speedruns
  • Deathless is possible
  • Deathless with all collectibles is possible but is insanely difficult

Controls :

up = gas
down = brake
left-right = rotate the bike
c to flip bike
v to retry

Old versions :

All Comments

This is incredible! Well done pal :] Looking forward to digging through your code :]

wow!! This is super impressive! The physics are great!
I didn't think this would be possible performance wise but it runs really nicely.

Oh and the art is great! Love the rocks!

I found the controls a bit confusing though.

I love physics games, and this certainly doesn't disappoint! The physics are spot on, and the speed is great! As impbox said though, the controls are a bit poor. I would suggest having z and x be brake and gas, and using the left and right keys to rotate the bike in the air.

P#14653 2015-09-26 23:08 ( Edited 2015-09-27 03:08)

I uploaded an update following your great feedbacks. Now you use left-right to rotate and up down to gas/brake. It feel better I think. I wanted to keep a button to switch the bike and quick restart. I added a lot of comment in the code to make thing clearer.
Now I need to make levels, I think I can squeeze 4 to 5 levels in the cartridge.

This is amazing. Well done!

Controls are still less than ideal, tough. Should be able to play one handed.

P#14677 2015-09-27 15:33 ( Edited 2015-09-27 20:54)

This is an incredibly fun game already!

The spirit of one-upmanship is strong in the PICO-8 forums. It was only a matter of time before we got a retro version of a cool physics game. I LOVE IT. It's really difficult to complete it with all the pickups, or to speedrun it, but I love it.

P#14743 2015-09-29 14:05 ( Edited 2015-09-29 18:05)

Love this game. Maybe you could make Cyclo 8-2 or whatever sequel would be called more like Elastomania/XMoto?

P#14955 2015-10-03 23:57 ( Edited 2015-10-04 03:57)

Yes I remember Elastomania, it was great. I could try making a bigger bike, with more physic parts. I think I will also try other vehicules, maybe with lots of wheels and moving parts, that could be fun. In a future game of course.

P#14971 2015-10-04 18:12 ( Edited 2015-10-04 22:12)

Bike size is imo ok.

P#14973 2015-10-04 19:47 ( Edited 2015-10-04 23:47)

Excellent! :)

P#14981 2015-10-04 22:11 ( Edited 2015-10-05 02:11)

I am so addicted to this game!

P#15627 2015-10-20 05:08 ( Edited 2015-10-20 09:08)

Wow, this is amazing! I wanna say the dying jingle is a tad too long and gets a little irritating when hearing it over and over. The winning jingle could also sound a bit cooler, though I don't wanna come off patronizing. If you think it's cool, it's cool.

P#15628 2015-10-20 08:27 ( Edited 2015-10-20 12:27)

Well, you are right Pizza, but you can use the restart button to avoid hearing the dying jingle until the end. I tryed making a better music for the end but the sound editor is very hard to use, specialy with non-qwerty keyboard. I need to look at some other carts to learn more about music in Pico.

P#15640 2015-10-20 13:34 ( Edited 2015-10-20 17:34)

Ah, my bad. I hit that other key once on accident but didn't realize that was the proper restart button. If you'd like some help with the audio feel free to contact me. I also have a non-qwerty keyboard. It helps to switch to EN with shift+alt for working with pico8.

P#15641 2015-10-20 13:37 ( Edited 2015-10-20 17:37)

wooooow this is a lot of fun !

P#15707 2015-10-21 20:53 ( Edited 2015-10-22 00:53)

A million thumbs up! It's like Bike or Die except fast and more crazy! Love it!

P#16033 2015-10-30 13:58 ( Edited 2015-10-30 17:58)

Kinda hard to control, but this is like action supercross, quite cool to play!

P#17515 2015-12-05 08:59 ( Edited 2015-12-05 13:59)

I uploaded a new version, with a better lamp to go in front of the bike. The old one was always bugging me.
