LunchTimeWaster: Excythe Bike

Take NES classic Excite Bike. Stick Death in the lead role. Sit back and giggle. That’s the recipe for today’s LunchTimeWaster.

Victorian BMX gives you Death on a BMX in am undulating, side-scrolling land ideally tailored to getting some “sick air” and, uh… scything down gentlemen riding their penny-farthings.

You die if you fall from your bike, something I found all-too-easy to do. Maintaining balance and momentum depends on being able to lean the right way to nail your landing. But the lean controls seem a little too sensitive.

Still, it gave me an excuse to use that headline, so all’s good with the world.

    HAHAHA!!!
    that was brilliant!

    it’s the little touched, like the throwing of the horns during a jump, that make this little lunch time waster brilliant.

    Was rather addictive too! :D

    Cheers Dave!
