Crazy bike fun

Crazy Bike Fun is a racing game built around a bicycle you put together yourself. Parts can be swapped, upgraded and rebuilt between races, and the two numbers that matter most are top speed and how quickly you reach it - the second one decides more corners than the first.

On the track it stops being clean. Obstacles appear without warning, rivals leave traps behind them, and anyone riding close enough can use a weapon on you - which cuts both ways, since you can do the same to them. Pickups scattered along the route give you a burst of speed if you take the line that reaches them. The riding itself still asks for stunt work and a steady hand.

How to play

Assemble your bicycle before you race and put upgrade points into top speed and acceleration, since a bike that gets moving fast recovers from a bad corner quicker. On the track, hold your line through the obstacles and watch for traps left by riders ahead. Grab the pickups along the route and save a speed boost for a straight rather than burning it in a bend. Ride close to a rival and either of you can strike first.

Controls

Steering, throttle and using a pickup are all handled from the screen itself - lean the bike left or right, hold to accelerate, and press the pickup you are carrying to set it off. The garage between races is worked the same way: tap a part to select it, tap again to fit or upgrade it.
