Bicycle Rider Simulator Reviews

Absolutely the worst Bicycle based game I ever played. Terrible Physics you constantly crash out of nowhere even resetting after a crash regularly crashes you again ugly maps with 2 of them running insanely bad for no reason graphical glitches turning radius that would make a cruise ship look bad Even throwing money away is a better choice than buying this mess.

The developer of this game is heavily relying on the SIMPLE BICYCLE PHYSICS asset kit on the Unity Asset Store for this game, but sadly, he seems to have only taken the casual and BORING from that kit, and left out all of the "FUN" stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAlsSvtXMuM The link for the asset kit on Unity can be found in the description of my Youtube video. Such links seem to be often removed in my Steam reviews, for whatever reason. In the end, this game reeks of what seems like lots of launch day 100% FAKE reviews, probably purchased reviews by this developer. Even if the reviews weren't fake, it doesn't matter because this game is more tedious and BORING than it is "fun". ..Not worth even half the $5 price tag. The developer should really focus less on fake reviews, asset kits, and pretty graphics in his next game and focus on making a "FUN" game to play! NOT RECOMMENDED. My score: A measly 1.5 out of 10 is about as generous as I can be here.

I like bicycles, so I was very interested in this game. Now i can ride bike at home after cycling my bike on the street. Or when the weather is sad. For the price, it's very good game, you definitely should try it.

The game is made good, great for bicycle lover. Bright and colorful graphics, stunning forest landscapes, rivers and mountains. Collision physics also works well and there is a first- and third-person view, which pleases.

The casual game is purely for relaxation, the graphics and music create a very pleasant atmosphere, so you can just ride for fun, you can also compete a little and speed-drive around the track, but personally I liked just riding more.

Fun game, relaxing game and kind of an unique concept. It's absolutely worth it's price, is fun to spend time on.

Fun but kind of vapid, I would like to say that this is a relaxing game to play but the camera random swinging to in front of you is kinda stressful also the fact that if you happen to fall more than 6" you just bail, a few times I had the momentum from a bail carry on to the reset which resulted in another bail. Optimisation is pretty much none existent and whereas the graphics are pleasant enough for what seems to be basic assets they are definitely not pretty enough to run my gpu hotter than Cyberpunk 2077 on high settings. I got this on sale so I don't feel like I over payed for what is here but in it's current state I could not recommend paying full price it is just too janky

Relaxing game with incredible landscapes. Very colorful graphics, nice soundtrack and easy control. As a cycling tourist, explore the area around and get a lot of positive impressions. I recommend!

This game had a very strange effect on me. You know how sometimes you hate watch TV shows or Movies just to over critique them? I found myself doing that with this game basically trying to find all the hilarious bugs and glitches and laughing over how fun they can be. At the end of the day, it a simulator its built to be difficult, but still a buggy mess. Still had a laugh or two, and sometimes that's all you need.

"Bicycle Rider Simulator" would have been better suited in Early Access than a full release at this point. While it seems to be a genuine attempt at making something fun there are some issues that drag it down. They are nothing that couldn't be fixed - but then there's another specter called "suspected review manipulation" looming above all. The game's foundation is [url=https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/slug/206818]Simple Bicycle Physics[/url], a rock solid asset for simulating, well, bicycle physics. It's definitely okay to use it especially as a single developer because properly simulating complex physics systems is definitely hard and there's no need to reinvent the wheel. The landscapes seem to be mostly assets by NatureManufacture which is fine as well as the developer did their homework and actually built the tracks themselves. Speaking about tracks, there are five and they are all locked except for the first. To unlock them you'll have to complete the previous track. There's also a plethora of different rider outfits and bicycle liveries to unlock but these can be purchased with "coins" which you can get simply by playing. There are no in-app purchases here. The menus are a bit odd in that they work in the opposite direction than you might be used to. To start a ride you need to select - from bottom to top: a rider, bicycle, bicycle livery and the map, then click Start. It's rather unusual really and should in my opinion be reversed to the standard top-to-bottom reading direction but it's easy to fix. Another bothersome thing is the translation. While the game pretends to be translated in a ton of languages they are really just Google translations - and rather poor ones at that. Some translated terms also don't fit the menu buttons properly. It's best to just switch to English which seems to be the most consistent language in terms of translation. Even in the menus you can feel the lack of optimization. The mouse cursor is sluggish and the overall performance feels extremely low - and that's on "Low" graphics settings. This is no surprise - the menu background is from an actual game scene and has not been optimized at all. Of course this gets worse the higher you set the quality. And of course it continues in the actual game. Even with a decent PC you'll run into chugging and this also leads to the controls becoming sluggish. Generally speaking riding the bike in this game isn't bad but with the performance issues it is certainly much harder than it should be. Visually it's okay although there seems to be no volumetric lighting here so everything looks a bit flat. The bike certainly looks great, the rider - and especially their animations - not so much. Each track has checkpoints scattered around it and sometimes they feel a bit too far apart which can make things frustrating if you crashed due to laggy controls or sluggish asset streaming. Based on all this, would I recommend it to someone who wants to ride a virtual bike? Too bad there's no "maybe" option on Steam - the game isn't terrible by any means and could be improved greatly with a little bit of work, namely in terms of optimizing the geometry. Once that's done it's probably worth the asking price. Unfortunately however the developer seems to have resorted to buying Steam reviews to "promote" his game. At the time of writing there are 12 reviews and at least 10 of them are from accounts that have been involved in review manipulation before. All of them have been posted a short time after release, are direct Steam purchases, very short and written in broken english. Look at the reviews and decide for yourself - there's definitely something odd going on. Adding that to the plethora of other issues I can't possibly recommend this game, I'm sorry.
