Acceler-8
A small Pico-8 Motorcycle racing game with procedurally generated tracks. Compete against 7 other racers, but watch out for the cars!
Also available on Itch.io.
Special thanks to Nette for cleaning up some of the bad pixel art for this cart!
Z/C to drive, X to brake, Arrow keys to steer.
Apparently, I accidentally deleted this post a while ago, whoops!

Ka-phew ! I'm gonna lose my sandwich with all those ups and downs in the road. But WOW ! This is an awesome accurate 3D racer.
The motorcycle even LEANS over when he's making the turns. Nicely done. Well-deserved Gold star for you !
This is fun! It looks awesome but it's really playable - even with all the rolling hills and stuff turns are easy to interpret and stuff. Would love to see more tracks and stuff.
I thought this looked great when I saw it on twitter.
So cool to actually play it.
The big backgrounds and the colour dithering is really well done. Awesome stuff.
There we go. I think this is about as done as it's gonna get! I have Nine (9) tokens left. There's MAYBE a few more I could shave down, but from 1.0 to now I've probably reclaimed like 2k XD
