You have been summoned to make an appearance at court before noon and pay a fine for the crime of skateboarding. Except you don’t have any money and noon is only a couple of minutes away! Skateboard around the city gathering as much loose change as you can find and make it to the courthouse in time. Just don't get caught skating again by the cops!


Controls

Arrow Keys - Move
X - Get on and off your board
C - Drop a doughnut to distract the cops chasing you

Full Release Version!

Controls: Move the bird with d-pad, jump the bike with x

How to play:

Collect as many letters as possible with the bird.
Avoid running into rocks in the road as the bike.
Hitting an obstacle with the bike will cause it to become unsteady and slow down.
If the bike slows down too far it will fall over and end the run.
Land the bird on the bike to return it to normal.
The bike cannot jump while the bird is sitting on it.
Hitting an obstacle while unsteady will cause the run to end.
If the bird is pushed off-screen too far to the left, the run will end.

Goal: get the highest score for letters/distance travelled.


Special Thanks:

A huge thank you to @notehead who composed the soundtrack for this game (including all of the effects)!
