BigBikeBoi

Description:BiGBikeBoi is a game about riding a bike along the beach,and so of course what will you do in this game? Ride a bikealong the beach. I chose this topic because I frequently ridemy bike down to the beach from my house in California andwanted to recreate a similar experience for others. Controls:W - Move ForwardA or LeftArrow - Turn the handle bars leftD or RightArrow - turn the handle bars rightS - Apply the brakes Reflection:Making a bike game is surprisingly difficult. Bikes are complexphysics objects. There is turning handle bars at an axis, rotating wheels that are connected to a shared body, lean forces,etc. so with this in mind, obviously a real simulated bike wouldbe too difficult for this project. I still used physics so the bike has a real feel of existing in the world, but the physics are inaccurate and that's okay because the focus is more on feel.Unfortunately, finding the right feel still proved very difficultand I'm disappointed to say I still couldn't quite get it right.I think this project really came down to this past weekend wheresomething came up unexpectedly and I missed code help desk.I believe if I were able to make it I may have found the feel I was looking for and that would have opened up more time for the rest of the weekend. My focus was really on the aesthetics qualitiesof the bike's look & feel and I believe it shows. So I amhappy about that, although I also wish I was faster at modelinglarge scenes. I'm not used to making big levels in blender so I will need to adjust to that. If I had more time I would add soundeffects and proper lighting, but overall I'm happy with what wasachieved.
