Superb freeware game, in which you have to ride a motorcycle, perform stunt, blast bad guys and generally cause mayhem to get maximum amount of points. Set to a pulsing soundtrack (by heavy alternative band Stain'd, this game is as action-packed as you could hope for and one of my personal favourites of all time (and I don't say that lightly - it wasted days of my time, quite literally).

This game was developed by Shaun Noel, who sadly took his own life not long after its release (not too long after the beginning of 2006). You can read his final interview on my site:

Just from this it isn't hard to tell that he was in a fairly bad frame of mind leading up to his suicide and it is very sad that he felt that life had nothing to offer him. He was an extremely talented freeware game developer and was well respected in the freeware gaming community but even moreso in the Game Maker community, in which he was quite literally worshipped.

I just read the interview and played the game, and generally the whole experience is that you were just in the presence of someone not very happy about how things was going in his life. Please listen to the stained song played in the game.

A strange hell of a game, where you plow through everything in your quest to unleash havoc on the unsuspecting population. What it has, apart from the suicidal undertone, is a fast, gory pace with stunts and mayhem in a fast forward arcade scroller.

The whole mood of the game is very fastpaced with a selfdestructive style.
Unfortunately it doesn't have great replayability, but only a good time when playing it the first many times.
I have an idea I won't play this game again soon. But not because it is bad, just because there are much better games out there.
