Some interesting inertia that just kind of makes sense for being in a tornado! And riding a bicycle in a tornado is yeah, decently unique.

Played on stream and left feedback throughout the session if you wanted to watch. I lost a bet and had to buy my buddy dinner ... just couldn't avoid those dang knives! Excellent entry. A lot of fun.

Just as I was wondering how far I could get, I get a knife to the tire! 41 score. Fun game, I like how you can tilt the bike.

A tornado is certainly unique! Fun game concept, although pineapples are pretty random XD

I had such a great time playing this, the title intrigued me and it was literally that, riding a bike in a tornado. I feel like it could be fun if there were more levels with different disasters, like a volcano, a flood, a fire, etc. This is a really fun concept, great job!

Hooked me with the title of your game and ended up having a blast playing it. Awesome job!

I love the setting, its super unique. I also love how the bike moves and how it feels like its being effected by wind. also the little pineapple on the loading screen is very cute

I just played your gam, and overall, I have to say it's pretty epic! The tornado parallax effect in the background is amazing and really adds to the overall concept of the game.

However, there are a few things I think could be improved upon:

  • Customizability: It would be great if players could customize their character or bike in some way (Tho ig it's just a jam game lol).
  • More obstacles: I think adding different types of obstacles, like bricks for example, would make the game more challenging and fun.
  • Life system: Adding a life system, like hearts or something similar, would give the game a bit more of a challenge and make it more engaging.
  • Power-ups: Including power-ups, like speed boosts or invincibility, would add an extra layer of excitement to the game.

Overall, I think your game has a lot of potential and with a few tweaks, it could be really cool! The art is great and the concept of a bicycle in a tornado is definitely unique and funny. One thing I would suggest is having one of the background wind elements move in the opposite direction, to make it feel more like a tornado. Keep up the good work!
