This game is hard! Reminds me of the good old C64 days, playing Olympic games with a joystick.

Woah, and I thought my game was on the tougher side of things, your game takes the biscuit by about 100m!

Couldn't get the hang of it, but seeing the comments that probably just me. Nice game, though.

Dig it, it's a lot like a classic sports games - 80's classic. That title screen music surprised me, it was awesome. Do either of you have a soundcloud?

Reminds me of Konami's arcade olympics game.

We spent 50 minutes playing this game which has slowed our game rating speed significantly.

Not really a fan of button mashers myself, but other people are, and the concept is solid, so not bad. Nice animations and good music. I feel like there could have been more indication of how fast you are running when you're in the middle of the track - since all the lines are horizontal there's no point of reference.

Brings me back to my days of playing NES olympic games. I sucked at them before, and I still do... after multiple tries, I couldnt even come close.

I have no idea how to get faster than a snails pace in this game. I'm not sure whether there's a good steady rhythm in there or whether I need to just go really fast.

I do like the polish on the game though. The loading screen was a nice touch and the graphics and audio is nice as well.
