Installation

Please install one of the 3 supplied PRC files. Any of the 3 versions will work on any device, but you will miss some features if you install the wrong file. How to upgrade: Just install the new prc file, don't delete the previous version.

Compatibility: This version supports a new way of cooperation with the level editor. You should upgrade to Bike or Design v1.1 if you are using the level editor.

Note: Some older OS4-based Sony CLIE devices have the High Resolution screen, but the game will not use it. These devices are too slow to provide the acceptable framerate on a 320x320 display.

Rules

On some levels there is no finish flag - just get all red flags to complete the race. Similarly, when there are no red flags you can go to the finish flag immediately.

Controls

There are 5 game buttons: Use the menu Options/Control to redefine those keys. "Disable other keys" will deactivate unused application buttons.
