Totally incredible!!! So now, a blender game controlled by a real bicycle? Totally incredible!!!

Then a light sensor inputs a light value into the computer. i use that light value as the forward thrust. the music is actually from the kid i went on the bike trip with Trevor Yasuda. one of the mini games inside the world is a racing game, and i did have the idea of connecting two bikes so people could race each other. it seems doable but for right now i am just focusing on this. the speed is controlled by a dynamo on the back tire that produces light when the bike is pedaled.

Not only do you play a new type of game, but get exercise at the same time. Would be cool if you created an online version where players could race one another.

So all the different things/characters you see in there are stylized and metaphorical versions of things that you saw and met on this trip? What a great idea. It's like a video game diary. I love the style. What is the music? It sounds great. MD That's awesome!

How do you control the speed? For me the goal is to make a simulation without the steering and to simulate somtething like a bike race (realistic time space climb and fatigue) It's some time i'm tinking somting like that but a don't have the skill.
