We're glad you liked it :).
We had harder bots at first but they were too damned smart...
Apart from pathfinding...

Cool game, nice jousting mechanics. Would like to see more bread types!

Great jams, great baguettes, what else does a man want from a game? Maybe an assortment of wine and cheeses.

Would recommend.

I like the wacky idea. I mean, a jousting duel with baguettes for weapons on bicycles, that's something!
I wonder how this game would look with 2D graphics, the current 3D ones work ok on a big screen, but not really suitable for mobile platforms.
It would be funny if you could grab more than one baguette if your opponents are too slow :)

This was cool! I liked it! It was weird riding those bikes though!

Very cool that there's a working AI :) It's difficult but fun once you get used to the controls

This is great. Cool concept. The pushing force felt a little too strong sometimes, like pushing hard directly away from a character by rotating.

Not really sophisticated graphics and UI seemed pretty awkward. AI behaved crazy sometimes, controls weren't very responsive, but I really liked the idea.

What is this? "You need a browser which supports WebGL to run this content. Try installing Firefox". I'm using Firefox...

@DarkGrisen Sorry you couldn't play in your browser. We have tested in different browsers, Firefox included, and never encountered an issue. It is likely that you should update it, so you can play WebGL entries :)

I apparently suck at riding a bike; I drove off the edge quite a bit. It was hard to judge where the edge really ended, given that the collision body and the graphics didn't match very well.

Hhaha, awesome! a lot of fun and pretty polished. I like the music a lot, it reminds me of the silly jams from the Katamari series.

Oh and for the record, the spelling and grammar mistakes from my compo Killipedes were all very deliberate o_-
