Описание:
BMX Simulator— это гоночная игра с видом сверху, выпущенная в 1987 году компанией Codemasters. Игра предлагает вид с высоты птичьего полета, напоминая серию Supersprint, где игроки соревнуются на BMX по различным трассам. Цель — обогнать соперника на нескольких трассах, каждая из которых становится все сложнее.
Одной из особенностей BMX Simulator является режим для двух игроков, позволяющий друзьям соревноваться друг с другом. В игре представлено семь различных трасс с уникальными препятствиями, такими как неровности, рампы и водные преграды, которые реалистично влияют на управление велосипедом. Эти элементы добавляют глубину игровому процессу, требуя от игроков адаптации стратегии для каждой трассы.
Игра также ввела инновационную функцию Action Replay, позволяющую игрокам пересматривать финиши. Этот повтор можно просмотреть в замедленном режиме, что дает возможность анализировать гонку и улучшать свои навыки. Управление простое, с использованием джойстика или клавиатуры для навигации и ускорения.
BMX Simulator была хорошо принята, получив похвалу за веселый и соревновательный опыт для двух игроков. Она считалась блестящей адаптацией версии для Commodore 64, сохраняя волнение и вызов BMX-гонок. В 1989 году вышло продолжение, предлагающее улучшенную графику и дополнительные функции.

YEAR

DESCRIPTION
Top-down Supersprint-esque game involving bikes, where you
have to simply race around several tracks attempting to beat
the other rider. Very much like Supersprint and it's clones,
except that collisions are possible.
CONTROLS
Joystick/Keyboard
ORIGINAL INLAY CARD TEXT
REAL 2 PLAYER OPTION
AMAZING REALISM - the burms, bumps and ramps really work -
seven different courses, each one harder. Two player option
and fantastic ACTION REPLAY option with SLO-MO - all make
this the best BMX game yet!
"great fun, especially as a 2 player game, I'd say it'll
go platinum" Popular Computing Weekly Oct.1986
THE ULTIMATE TWO PLAYER GAME
BMX simulator is a brilliant version of the epic Commodore
64 game. Eye in the sky viewing - amazing realistic
simulation, the starting ramp, burms, bumps, water splashes
etc. all have realistic effect on the rider.
Two player option is included. Seven different,
progressively harder, courses will test even the best player.
ORIGINAL BY RICHARD DARLING
Richard has achieved yet another breakthrough with the first
ACTION REPLAY option, whenever there is a close finish you
can see it again on the REPLAY - and if that's not enough,
press the S key and watch it in SLOW MOTION!
JOYSTICK OR KEYBOARD
CONTROLS:
JOYSTICK CONTROL FOR ONE OR TWO PLAYERS
Fire button "on" - Accelerate
Fire button "off" - Brake
Joystick Left - Rotate bike left
Joystick Right - Rotate bike right
ACTION REPLAY
Press A at the end of each course for the ACTION REPLAY. Then
hold down S for the special Slow-Motion feature (SLO-MO).
HINTS
Demonstration mode runs automatically.
Press N to change the number of courses in the Championships.
You must complete each course within the time limit in order
to qualify for the next one.
Press S to start the race.
You are then told, RIDERS READY - PEDALS READY - GO!
Press Accelerate the instant you are told to go - timing is
vital, don't lose precious tenths of a second.
Race as though you are in a real BMX Championship. The burns
help you turn, the rough ground slows you down. All the hills
and different grade surfaces effect the rider as in real
life.
Number of laps raced and time elapsed are shown at the
bottom of the screen for both riders.
The 'time limit' is shown in the centre of the screen on
the bottom line.
HINTS/CHEATS
49264,58 - Always qualify
>From YS May87:
"Don't press the pedal until the bar at the bar at the bottom
says Go. This way you'll pull away from your opponent.
Pressing it when it says Riders Ready and keeping your finger
on isn't the easiest way.
On Course 4, there is a shortcut. Instead of turning right at
the second turn, simply keep going along the top of the map.
On Course 5, it's best to let the computer go first, then
follow him because he slows down on the long straight. That
way, you can ride straight through without being knocked off
if you're going fast enough."
