You get points because they're my absolute favourite thing ever and Tron is amazing. That aside, I had a few issues like the AI driving off the edge of the world over and over, and the weird overpowered engine that almost flipped my bike if I went full throttle. The map could have been a bit bigger and the physics need some tweaking, but I really enjoyed this game!"},{"author_name":"nigelmnz","author_uid":"35021","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 4:52am","epoch":1398660420,"text":"Interesting idea with the level flipping mechanic."},{"author_name":"cwkx","author_uid":"26001","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 4:56am","epoch":1398660660,"text":"This looks stunning and has really well-suited sound effects.

Unfortunately the bike seemed to randomly flip over or get stuck sometimes, and once it got stuck upside down like a beetle. 'R' seemed to reset it which was nice, but I notice your Controls listing does not mention that.\r\rIt was also difficult to tell why enemies were resetting, and hard to see the edge of the map until you were on it.\r\rTron is always neat for a theme!"},{"author_name":"alvarop","author_uid":"31332","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 5:23am","epoch":1398662280,"text":"Woah, loved how there's a trace that follows the vehicles!"},{"author_name":"BruceDoh","author_uid":"29780","time":"Apr 28, 2014 @ 5:28am","epoch":1398662580,"text":"Really nice visuals.

I think I'd pursue it post-compo and work out the glitches. I flipped time and time again but it just wasn't quite solid enough. You nailed the light cycle vibe and I really wanted to play that.
