Plus I dunno, it made me want to ride my bike, that has to count for something. right?\n\nIn terms of graphics I tend to be a pain in the ass about mixels like those, but the overall aesthetic captured to charm of things like QWOP rather well so I can't be too mad. However the graphics of the final level were bad for the gameplay. There were background elemeents that had the same contrast as playable ground so it was kinda hard to know the path without some trial and error that could've been avoided by lowering the contrast in the background.\n\nAudio was ok, the song didn't bother me and I appreciate the voice acting but specially during the final cutscene it's too repetitive.\n\nOverall I really liked it and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone playing games in the jam.

There is just something exhilarating about accelerating the bike and then going down a hill with way too much momentum. The way the bike wheels spin complements this well; overall the bike is just very satisfying.\n\nI definitely had fun beating the first two levels--the mania of trying to maintain a good amount of momentum while not losing all the papers was pretty neat. So far I have not been able to beat the third level. One thought on the third level is that it is hard to tell the foreground from the background.\n\nAt first I was annoyed that there was a timer, but I do think it actually is pretty important to force the player to go fast. The feeling of rushing without knowing if I'll be able to keep all my papers in is a pretty nice feeling. I do wonder if it would be good to let the player keep playing after they lose, though, just so they can play with the physics and learn the level layout a bit.","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":761571,"author_name":"Steve7411","author_uid":"steve7411","epoch":1634049572,"text":"This game was really fun to play, and a good implementation of the theme.
