And last mention...this is higly addictive! I have spent a good 2 hours playing this game!
Friggin' Amazing!!!
This game is truely great! Music has variation, the graphics are the best that they can be without lag, there's plenty of comedy: the references to real life people made me lol irl.
The upgrade system is effective, cheap enough at low levels so you notice a difference, and expensive enough at high levels to make it just about difficult enough.
The difficulty curve was superb, anyone who says otherwise just didn't give the game the chance it deserved. The levels themselves aren't particularly hard to complete so you keep the casual player happy, but to unlock all the acheivement provides literally hours of fun.
The difference between the bikes brings a pleasent strategic element to it (do I go with the fastest bike or the one that can get me the boost easiest?)
I managed to complete it in the end, getting first on the moon was definately the hardest (did it in sir colin in the end) and getting level 5 boost on Jaggies was a close second (the king ftw!)
The ending movie is great as well, I'm so glad it exploded otherwise I would have been pissed!
The ONLY thing that bothered me was the boost system in as much as you had very little control over it and I found that on particularly tricky levels I would deliberately have to not do a flip in order to save the boost for a flatter piece of track up ahead.
But that's a minor point that's only going to bother someone who's played the races enough times to know what's coming next.
Truely amazing game.
Really looking forward to whatever you make next.

Thank you! :-)
Nice, but a lil hard and repetitive.
This game is really good. But, some minor things you should correct in maybe your sequel to this game, is decrease the AI speed. At un-tuned I can barely hit 5th place, even when I'm almost fully tuned, I can only get first place without doing insane barrel-rolls in the air. That's all I really need to say - Make the game a lil easier for casual people who don't have all the time in the world to tune their 2-d bike. :) Have a nice day and good luck on CycloManiacs 2 if you're ever to make it.
decent game
I will admit I had fun for the first 15 min or so but then it became boring. The races where repetitive and it became tedious doing remedial tasks to unlock more courses and the cash flow was on the slow side, compared to the price if upgrades near the end of each ability.
