Wheelie Big and Small

GMTK 2024 jam entry, an endless runner built to scale. 

How to play

Just another endless runner? Well, hold onto your unicycle seat - because this one has a funky twist.  Your player's size is tied to your speed. Go faster to make it over sparsely slatted bridges, but slow down to fit inside tunnels and cross speed bumps. Size matters!

Reach the next checkpoint in time to get a time boost, and see how far you can push your high score!

Controls: 

• Up arrow/w to accelerate and get BIGGER
• Down arrow/s to slow down and get SMALLER
• Left arrow/a and right arrow/d to steer left/right
• Esc to end your run to retry

Obstacles/interactions:

• Avoid cars by swerving aside - or get small enough to fit under!
• Go fast to get over slatted bridge
• Go slow to fit under overpass
• Go slow to fit between the slit of death
• Use speed bumps to slow down, and MrDonut to speed up
• Go fast to reach the next checkpoint in time!
