I tried playing the game, but it didn't work. But, it looks -to me- like just a platform game.

If you do end up doing one, put the instructions on the opening screen. I didn't get the controls for ages either.

No, it just doesn't work for me; though it is fast, I think my computer is to blame.

I didn't really like that game elma was better!
The key to making this game is to just make the wheels first, as they're the important bits, ie you're only hitTesting with the wheels, but it's still tricky, you need gravity etc friction, i think it would be difficult

Elma is what people who had their lives taken over by a biking game called "Elastomania". It's great and the game in the link above is a total ripoff of it but nowhere near as good.

No that's not really what i mean, not drawing the wheels first! I mean make the game for a wheel to get the physics right etc.
You would want it to be like the bezier curve collision fla i attached (from gotoAndPlay.it), except without the bezier curve (ie a picture).

I tried to do it but i'm not sure if it's possible with a hitTest, but i'm working on it. I attached my fla of what i started (yeah about 1min) just so u see what i mean.

This is the most important part of the game!

ELMA ROCKS!

ok dude...i have made my bike now...now what i need is gravity and a hit test thing to the ramp and i also need a code to make it move only to right....is it also possible to put in and rotation code to make it do wheelis and flips...?


how can i do that? im not good at scripts
