LIGHTCYCLES!!! You get points because they're my absolute favourite thing ever and Tron is amazing. That aside, I had a few issues like the AI driving off the edge of the world over and over, and the weird overpowered engine that almost flipped my bike if I went full throttle. The map could have been a bit bigger and the physics need some tweaking, but I really enjoyed this game!
This looks stunning and has really well-suited sound effects. Excellent job :)
Its really confusing to have the ability to catch air in a lightbike. As well as the fact that you shoot each other rather than the normal cutting the other person off?
Nice graphics and neat idea with the tile flipping. Unfortunately the bike seemed to randomly flip over or get stuck sometimes, and once it got stuck upside down like a beetle. 'R' seemed to reset it which was nice, but I notice your Controls listing does not mention that.
It was also difficult to tell why enemies were resetting, and hard to see the edge of the map until you were on it.
Tron is always neat for a theme!
Really nice visuals. The tile flip mechanic is great, and a good take on the theme. It does get a bit glitchy when flipping, and a couple times I ended up stuck in Neverland.
Great graphics and nice gameplay, I ended up playing 10 minutes!
Wow, just wow. If you saw any of the streaming of this being made, the custom physics engine for the bikes is absolutely mind-blowing. Would like to see this developed further with a larger grid, and joystick controls with analogue trigger throttle and brake.
Looks really cool, but I think the controls and physics need a bit of work. Very difficult to control. Visually, this is great I really like it, but make those bikes stick to the ground better and I'll like it more.
I think I posted my commentary but it seems to be missed so here I go again:
Nice and clean! A multiplayer version would be great, the difficulty is too easy but the mechanics are cool :3
Great visuals and the flipping is a nice idea. The physics are a bit wonky and the perspective feels a tad too low. Nice game though!
I have too much bug when i am plying, but graphics are great.
Great idea. I think I'd pursue it post-compo and work out the glitches. I flipped time and time again but it just wasn't quite solid enough. You nailed the light cycle vibe and I really wanted to play that. I'd recommend raising the camera a bit so you can see more. Keep working on it!
Controls felt a bit glitchy and AI could be smarter.
Tron style gfx looks really good! Clever use of the theme with that flipping mechanism.
Very cool light cycles and flip mechanic. I do with the view was a bit farther back so I could see the stage better, but other than that well done.
Not bad =)
Turns to slow and enemies often behinf player.
It needs more polishing in controls.
P.S. И это, неужели ты за всё время так и не научился центрировать и скрывать чёртов курсор?
I found the bike really hard to control - it felt very floaty and flipped easily.
It looks fantastic though, and I could see the flipping mechanic working well across different arenas with varying layouts/obstacles.
Hi. Found this difficult to play, collision with 'light walls' didn't seem to work (Web/Chrome/W7), great sounds and visuals.
Super cool Tau! The flipping thing gets good marks for theme usage, and I really like the bike models.
Graphics look really nice but the stearing felt a bit off, I just ended up flying around and upside down.

MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Pretty good. Great shiny graphics, really nice bike movement. Addictive Play. Nice job
