Extreme Bikers

Extreme Bikers is about landing, not speed. The bike will happily launch off anything, and getting air is the easy part - the levels are built so that the ramp you hit at the wrong angle puts you nose-down on the far side. Shifting your weight mid-air so the wheels come down first is most of the game.

The courses fight back in two ways. Obstacles move, so a gap that was open when you committed to the jump may not be open when you arrive, and spikes are scattered where a rider naturally drifts. Touch one and the bike is finished on the spot. The levels get genuinely difficult, and clearing a hard one usually comes down to taking a jump slower than instinct tells you to.

How to play

Get the bike rolling, build up enough speed for the ramp ahead, and lean forwards or backwards while you are airborne so you come down on both wheels instead of your head. Moving obstacles mean timing matters as much as the jump itself, so watch a pattern go round once before you ride into it. Spikes destroy the bike on contact. Reach the end of the level intact and the next one opens up.

Controls

The arrow keys ride the bike. Up accelerates, down brakes and reverses, and left and right lean the bike backwards and forwards - in the air those two are what set your landing angle.
