The Little Bike That Could
A downloadable bicycle-sim for Windows and Linux
This is a bicycle simulation game featuring advanced bike physics.
The player uses gamepad to set the lean angle, and the game will use the handle bars to reach that lean angle.
A full and accurate physics simulation, running at 240Hz, gives the game a realistic feel.
Separate control over front and rear brakes gives the rider the possibility of doing stoppies, and with lean backward, wheelies are possible.
And with ramps, 360 flips, front and back are possible too.

Feels super nice sometimes, though I wish there were some less punishing/more fun "let's explore a nice place and pick up coins along the way" kind of levels (the second level was already pretty brutal). Cool. (I'm also a fan of your little crane game from back when the Ouya was a thing :) ).
This game literally made me hate bikes for some reason, but i still like the game even tho i bitched too much about the controls. Realism 10/10 VLC cones 1, Me 0
Me and this game have a love hate relationship, It loves to piss me off and i hate that it's so addicting
I suck but I still love this! The reflectors add so much to the charm for some reason :D
Thanks. You mean the reflectors in the wheels, or the ones in pedals? All the bikes had those in the pedals, in the Netherlands, when I grew up in the 70s. I think you had to have them by law.
I didn't notice that the pedals also had some ^^
By the way, is there a way to hide the game controller image and/or the graphs?
try tilde key ~
Freeze game w right bumper for sshot wo graph
Tilde key isn't removing the controller info for me. Freezing with the right bumper removes the controller but not the graphs. Got the latest version. Love the game btw, wish I could remove the UI stuff tho.
PS: do you plan to make win32 releases of your other games?
