Playing with Matches (Prototype)
Controls:
Player | Turn | Right Pedal | Left Pedal |
P1 | S/F | Left Shift | A |
P2 | Left/Right Arrows | N | M |
Objective: Alternate your pedals in order to ride your bicycle around the velodrome. Theoretically, complete four laps before your opponent. In reality, just enjoy a nice bike ride.
Playing with Matches is a game about Match Sprint Cycling. If you have never seen what that looks like, give this a quick watch. Unfortunately, due to an incident involving fire and my apartment, Playing with Matches never really reached the level of completeness I had hoped for.
Class: Pixel Prototype
Assignment: Make a game about the Olympics
Postmortem: Because of the aforementioned incident, the key mechanics governing both the interesting aspects of Match Sprint Cycling and also its base-level aspects are absent. Still, I think pedaling feels good and has interesting applications. I hope to come back and actually finish this at some point, but as it stands, it has very little to it.
