THE COVID RACE by Aarre Entertainment
This game creates a level from the daily new COVID cases in Finland. It may be playable to the end or very difficult to do so. The masks add to your speed. The theme is in how it's completely dependent on data and case count and may become unplayable at some point. And when it ultimately does, it's the greatest news.

Just a heads up, the controls listed on the itch page are reversed :)
Bike controls are very pleasant, the weak gravity allow the player to simply control the bike in the air, and it's nice :thumbsup:
I would like more challenge, like time attack or score from jump length... It's not interesting to collect items because there is no rewards. You should give something when player collect enough items : speed bonus, bonus life, better bike...
Old tv screen effect is very nice, I also like background music.
Good job :smiley_cat:
