I am not going to pretend that I would be of any use at all whatsoever in helping create a new game when it comes to the technical details. That being said, I did bookmark the revival website you guys made and if/when you get to beta testing I am more than happy to help if that would indeed be helpful.

If anyone ever does manage to get in touch with SZ I am 100% on board with helping to fund a purchase of the website/game from him. I keep hoping I will log on here and find that he in a spout of nostalgia will have logged in and seen all of our comments and gotten in touch with someone to give or sell the game to us but so far no such luck.

Anyways, all this to say I hope you all are doing well and if there is anything I can do to help I am happy to do so but I am afraid anything regarding game design is outside my skillset... See you all next time I log in (Probably something like 6 months from now I will find myself wondering if anyone saw my last post haha

Its kind of depressing logging in here but also just so so nostalgic

Mr.pickle.

heh, I remember when this pack first came out and everyone had their minds blown by how good the graphics looked (Which is funny in hindsight). Gosh we gotta find some way to play this again!

Kenn's game on LaserTag

Mr.pickle.

The limits people pushed this game is just nuts. I really dont think anyone plays games to nearly this level of (almost) perfection anymore. Most mobile games now are basically idle games designed to keep you playing long enough to watch ads and/or make purchases. There is just nothing out there that is a one time purchase and is then THIS engaging long term trying to do a specific trick.

Its kinda like looking at one of the original Mario games and comparing it to Mario Sunshine, its not even close to the same thing. Some of the game is infinitely better but there also is something that never really got recaptured since the original. I feel like there is almost nothing on the app store today that recaptures the original feel and addictiveness of the games on Palm OS back in the day (Big ones that come to mind for me are BOD, Tradewinds and Warfare Inc.)

Kamirashi's game on Zip-Zap

BikerBrian

Great run on this one. I'm glad it wasn't just a touch faster

.

It is tough to keep enough momentum on the climb to reach the finish flag.

Champ's game on Expl-O-sion 2.0

Pinchies

There are now finally nice ways to emulate bike or die.

The easiest way is to search for "Bike or Die PalmDB" and then to click the link to "try it now" at the bottom of the page.

This could be so much faster, but I'm happy with gold

Kamirashi's game on Bike or Pi

Got the best possible beginning and just played the rest of the level really safe.

Kamirashi's game on Lifeboat Rescue

Kamirashi

That was really unexpected, was aiming for top 10 and clutched this run!

Kamirashi's game on No Escape

Kamirashi

The 2nd 14 year old gold beaten in a few days, still seems like it can be improved a bit with the new beginning. This takes me to #1 in the pack and #2 on the leaderboard

Kamirashi's game on No Escape

Mr.pickle.

Its not a case of practice… its better explained by obsession. Once you get the bug it doesnt go away, here i am popping back over here and its been almost a decade since i last was able to play & #128514;

Kamirashi's game on Sixpack

New route apparently, can maybe go below 24.50 if properly optimized

Kamirashi's game on Playground

Kamirashi

One more gold for the pile.

Kamirashi's game on Draco

Kamirashi

Thought the beginning was the best part, but turns out I gain it all with the end, not smooth, but apparently faster

Kamirashi's game on Piece Of Cake

Kamirashi

This run had an insane middle part, I can't believe how much it beats the previous gold by

Mr.pickle.

Look what I found…

If you go into app store on ios, Szymon is still piddling around and releasing apps occasionally. I found one he released last year (2024) called Resistor Brain, its some sort of AI game, i am honestly not sure how it works or what it is for. Anyways, thought i would share. I left a comment hoping he would see it saying he should try to log in here and contact someone who was ready to buy BOD from him. Probably wont hear back but… worth a shot? Maybe not, but i sure have the itch still and wish I could play. If you want to find his apps just search in ios for Toyspring in developers, he pops right up.

A review, not a comment*. I left a review on his app hoping he would see it. Maybe everyome else should do that too.

Mr. Pickle. Join our discord. https://bikeordie.net. He responded recently. Details are in our Discord comments. But he released a video of him converting it to Android too. He's been spotted more recently than in previous years. Very interesting though, great catch, Pickle.

I just looked up Toyspring in the App Store and he released a sailing game in 2020. Will do more research when it's not 4am. Butyeahman, would love to catch up with you. I'm on socials @DividedWarrior too.
