Just a fun Idea... The game ' Kick ' is pretty fun. Its meant to be played with a spinner (a trackball thats limited to one axis). However, just for Kick's ;) Heres an alternate idea to control the game: The thing could be simply a pedal unit, or have an actual bike seat on it. :) |

Just for reference, this is the game: |

Oh, no that'll never work... see you've got it diagrammed with a blue cable and there's no way a blue cable will carry the signal needed to interface a bicycle wheel with a computer, maybe if you had your MAME setup on a Palm pilot, or Sega Saturn, but a PC... not with a blue cable, pink yes, blue no way. ;D Seriously though, I've never played the game but it seems like a fun idea, it's cool when building our own controls actually leads to a new approach to a game. I doubt I'll try it, but if somebody does hopefully they'll show it here. |

Damn, how could I have missed that? Pink cable *slaps forehead* :D Well man, you really gota try Kick with a spinner, or if you dont have one, a Mouse. Great fun. (You may need to tweak the analog settings a bit to get it just right) I used to play a version of the games on the C64 computer. Totally addictive, and a decent port.. But the arcade version really blows it away with its much better control, sounds, and extra detail. I liken the bike-troller to something like Guitar Hero's guitar-troller. Adds that extra bit of challenge and realism into the game. One day Ill actually get around to building these ideas :banghead: Thanks for the comments :) |

I actually have this game and LOVE it but it died on me a month ago- trying to find parts to fix it. It makes me laugh uncontrollably b/c as the clown goes back and forth on the unicycle to catch the balloons, you can actually hear a BELL on his little cycle that goes bling-bling-bling-bling-bling every time he moves.. That one little detail kills me. You also have to love that this game was used to promote Pac Man. Timeless. VG |
