Fun idea, though with my keyboard i was able to avoid the difficulty in pressing X by reaching over with my right hand. Would've been cool to see a little more variety between fixes, like maybe a minigame depending on which fix you're performing. I think collisions + hitboxes were a little off, i was bumping into things i definitely felt like i shouldn't, including team members i was cycling up to to try and help.

Love the idea very much, the monkeys look really nice ! :D liked the art generaly

Loved the design of the different monkey teams 😊 ! And the idea of helping out the others was also pretty nice. I sometimes randomly stopped while cycling, was that because I got out of rythm? πŸ€” But overall really nice game, even though in the beginning I had no idea how to cycle, but fortunately you got the controls on you page πŸ‘Œ

glad you had fun 🩷 we wanted to present the role of Domestique as this sort of challenge of motor coordination between riding a bike and doing other activities, so the player would need to keep this momentum of Z -> C -> Z -> C like pedalling on an actual bike. And then having to press the X key (right in between the pedalling keys) to help teammates is meant to screw with your coordination a bit, intentionally! so hopefully that's what caused you to stop a couple times 😁

Yes! That was probably it, need to work on my coordination then πŸ˜‚ great idea!

That was really awesome in every category pretty much! I really like the idea of helping the team of cyclists, I haven't seen another idea like that yet, super cool. I wasn't sure why I kept randomly stopping but I kept retrying anyway because I wanted to help my team.

Music is really fun, fully functional Menu always a plus. Had to Alt f4 to leave the game. Also had to check your page for the controls. I dont  understand the resoning behind changing the controls from conventional use. I feel like AD and ZC could have been switched easily. Not sure why I would use the break. Also didnt see anything that used the interact X key. My figures were getting tired quickly playing as well. But it is a cute game and you can play it from start to end which is nice.

Love the art and music of this game! A little challenging to figure out he controls at first, but your submission page cleared that up!

I love how the game looks. The art, sounds effects, bg music were all really good. The pedaling mechaning was fun, but my hands started to get tired after the third playtrhough lol. It would be good if a tutorial or instructions of the objective were added on the game.

The game looks awesome but it was so confusing even after reading the game description I still wasn't really sure what to do, but my team got the most points after I gave them some water (I think?) and I assume that means we won(?)

That was some good cycling! Would have loved a bit more instructions or a tutorial on how to play but I thought the art was cute and loved the chaotic nature of it.

Really cool idea!

I had quite the laugh pedalling like a madman with my fellow Primates

lets go team rizzlers Macaque!

Submitted(+3)

The pedaling feels really nice! The music and art is also very good, but I think the settings don't work

Loved the pedaling mechanic so much, very innovative way to capture cycling mechanically. SFX were also absolutely slapping!

Thank you so much! I'll be playing your game soon :)
