wow that was unreasonably fun. I managed to get over 16 seconds on the regular bike which felt like a massive achievement
Nice job!
Very original idea. Difficult, I tried several times and didn't get very far, even lowering the DPI of my mouse to try to reduce sensitivity.
Next update I am lowering the default sensitivity by half. There is also a sensitivity slider in the menu. Are you using a laptop by chance? The mouse inputs seem to be much stronger on laptops for some reason.
Yes, I used a laptop. But my mouse has DPI regulation so I left it very low to see if it helped, but it didn't change much. However, there is also a high chance that it is my lack of skill in the game.
Interesting, I appreciate the feedback.
Surprisingly fun (and frustrating)!
Took me a couple minutes to realize I had to move my mouse in the same direction that I start leaning over - this felt counter intuitive to me personally, I think it would make more sense the other way around.
I also think the mouse sensitivity is waaaaay to high - it feels almost impossible to make the micro adjustments you need to stay straight.
Pedaling also seemed a bit odd - it seems like you have to start with the right foot or else you go backwards?
With some adjustments to make the bike a bit easier to ride, I could see this turning into a very fun game navigating obstacle courses.
Thank you! Mouse sensitivity is definitely an issue. There is a slider in the menu, but when I put out the next build I will be lowering the default sensitivity by half, in my testing it makes the game much easier.
As for the steering and leaning; it takes some getting used to but that is actually how bikes work in real life. We get so used to it that we don't notice, but to turn you must initially steer in the opposite direction just for a moment.
For pedaling I have been thinking of adding a color indicator to better show which pedal is forward.
Thank you for the feedback!
It's the perfect rage game.
The steering wheel just tilts you to the other side. Had me confused for a long time.
I would suggest the ability to modify key bindings would help.
Nice game.
5/5 for originality! This falls under the category of games where you rage but its addictive as hell, I would make some game balance adjustments so you can get past 5 seconds 😂 but that might just be me. Congrats on the submission!
it requires a lil bit of practice but once you get it , its fine ! Really nice game !
11 sec :( It's so difficult
Very original, and also very hard ^^
Great idea. It actiually looks like something pewdiepie would have played in his young days, raged over it, and broken his keyboard
Interesting
Genius idea we drive a bike with the mouse. I reach 50 sec!
Good game!! Very original!! This can be such a good mobile game as well. Good Job @pgcomai!
Man.. this is hard haha.
I took me like 5 minutes to realize I was peddling backwards and that's why I wasn't going forward.
It'll take some practice for me to get it since my record so far is less than 6 seconds haha
Oh this is a tough one, definitely requires skill. Enjoyed it but i suggest that you should reduce the sensitivity a bit or maybe allow the bicycle to have a bit of balance in the beginning just to help the player. From my experience making games in Godot is tougher than Unity so I really admire what you did here!!
Thank you! There is a sensitivity slider in the menu if that helps.
I wasn't able to get a score submitted? QWOP vibes niice.
Interesting, were you able to sign into Hyplay?

Simple, but addictive. Extremely sensitive controls, might wanna dial it down a bit. Who the hell are the top 2 ranks going on for 208 hours? :D
EDIT: There is a mouse sensitivity slider i haven't noticed when you press ESC. And also it's 208 seconds not hours. Still impressive though lol
Are you playing on a laptop by chance? I included a sensitivity slider but I've noticed that laptops tend to give much stronger mouse inputs, not sure why.
Oh? I haven't noticed the slider, sorry. I'm on laptop yeah. Using an external mouse though. I'll give it another try in a bit
Ok cool. If it's anything like my laptop, the lowest sensitivity setting may still not be enough. I may have to add some kind of "laptop mode" that lowers the sensitivity by a much larger amount. Also the 208 seconds is a bit of a "strategy" one of my viewers discovered ;)
Great game
Nice game mechanic.
I use Opera Gx as my browser and it didn't run well, so much laggy and couldnt play it properly
Interesting, thank you for letting me know.
