Dragon Bike

Le Vélo du dragon 竜の自転車

As the competitor of a crazy Japanese show, you have to cycle your way (?) on an exercise bike to shift the background so that the hamster you hold reaches the end, all while avoiding the dragon balls. And the hamster also has to avoid the danger 危 kanjis. (Told you it was crazy!)

Use your hand to catch those dragon balls!

Made with Love2D.

Made for Mini Jam 114 with theme ‘Anime’ and limitation ‘Locked in Place’. (Running time: from September 2nd 2022 at 6:00 AM to September 5th 2022 at 6:00 AM.)

Started late (once again!!) because of testing for Brackeys Game Jam 2022.2, but I wanted to try out the idea.

The hamster from Freewheeling: Bossy Wheel makes a comeback!
