Bicycles May Use Full Lane (link)

This is a fun game I made. I chose pico-8 because of its constraints and simplicity. I made this game to show how unsafe and stressful it is to bike on American roads. I want the player to empathize with bicyclists and feel the stress and lack of safety. This game, like biking on the road, is hard. You are not meant to feel easy or last that long. My highest score is 150.
