Sunset Bike Racing
a one-button, rhythm-and-timing driven arcade jumper. Guide a bouncy ball between platforms, hit red buttons for bonus points, launch off golden bricks for extra height, collect diamonds to unlock skins, and climb the global leaderboard across Normal and Hard modes.
What is
Sunset Bike Racing is a side-scrolling motocross game built with Unity; the browser edition runs via Unity WebGL/HTML5. The core fantasy is “precision physics at high speed”: you read rolling terrain, modulate pitch in mid-air, and convert clean landings into faster segments. It’s designed for snackable sessions that stack into long-term mastery—perfect for mobile and web.
The level design favors short, readable sprints that invite time-trial replay. Nitro is the risk–reward spice: perform flips or wheelies to earn boosts, then spend them on climbs, exits, and long tables. Input feel is consistent across touch, keyboard, and controller.
Gameplay
- Controls & physics: throttle/brake + forward/backward lean. Center of mass, suspension travel, and rotation inertia all matter; flat landings preserve momentum, nose-down arrivals bleed it.
- Speed tech: pump slopes, preload on lips, and release at crests; short-hop to keep wheels glued through speed sections. Use Nitro to bridge plateaus or rescue under-rotated jumps.
- Progression: a growing set of handcrafted tracks with escalating rhythm complexity. Beat times, collect medals, and unlock stronger bikes with better acceleration and stability.
- Ghost racing: run against your personal best (or shared records) to benchmark lines. Ghosts make micro-optimizations visible and keep the time-trial loop sticky.
- Replayability: alternate routes and micro-lines reward experimentation; shaving tenths comes from cleaner landings, earlier Nitro, and tighter pitch control.
- Difficulty curve: early tracks teach throttle discipline; later ones force combo play—flip → Nitro → pump—to chain obstacles.
- UX & sessions: ad/IAP friendly without blocking skill progression. Offline play supports commute-length sessions; WebGL enables instant “no-install” tries.
