Another day another patch.
I overhaul the title screen.
Now when you select a biker you’ve not unlocked you see the silhouette of the biker.
The track then morphs into a representation of the first section of that bikers track.

Another update out for my biker fox iOS game.
This adds a number of tweaks and improvements but significantly fixes the player character juddering issue. Was caused by a couple of different things.
Made the 50cc difficulty easier so less frustrating to new players.

When I was little I had a fisher price tape player and a bunch of tapes I got from coupons on the back of Weetabix boxes.
There was, Everybody wants to Rule the World, that ‘wouldn’t it be nice to be in your shoes’ song and Fame.
This was the stand out track. #music

Good point, people conflate profit with contribution.
When last unemployed I did a fair amount of charity work. There are plenty of people racking it in by doing things that have a net negative contribution to society.
This includes the politicians and media who kick down on unemployed people.

I’ve that chat with chat gpt, asking why politicians are so bad at communicating policies that if they just used chat gpt they’re get much better results.
Chat gpt gave a good answer, but the real answer is politicians aren’t human and lack the reasoning algorithms to ever reach true intelligence.

Since the last two updates to my iOS game Biker Fox 🦊 I think the game is doing a lot better with players.
Every race it requests a banner ad and the ad request total are many times higher than the total downloads.
Once I get more stats I’ll confirm and figure out what to do next.
