The Trail Hogs - Bicycle Jousting

Hi all,

Just want to talk about my game The Trail Hogs. I am passionate about biking and I wanted to make a game about bicycles with bumpers. In this game you play as a cyclist with an attitude. Basically, you're bike has a bumper and you want to hit other bikes and people with it. In The Trail Hogs you do not die, instead you get pushed off of a ledge and have to climb back up or you might end up in another area and this could change your path in the game. In the game you belong to the bicycle gang known as the Trail Hogs and fight against the gang known as the Skidmarks (they leave skidmarks on the road and they are big jerks). The ringleader of the Skidmarks is The Pork. He is the leader out of shear intimidation. He's so crazy that everyone wants to stay away from him. He wears a pig mask and hides somewhere in the game. (You'll fight him several times!) The game is divided into area - not levels. There is a map but the points correspond to locations in an area like a crosswalk. To help traverse the levels you modify your bike with different gadgets so that you can traverse zip lines and knock down walls - who knows where you'll go! So enough hype and here's some screen shots:

That's your coin counter and your timer. You're always watching your back so that's why your eyes are pointed to the back.

This game is not for the faint of heart so if you are looking for a challenge the game does have a learning curve. The game is all about speed and timing. Would you like to try it?
