I think I was unable to play it correctly, somehow the bicycle starts spinning like a diwali chakri man :D
But it looks like the old school bmx I used to play earlier and would like to play again if you have a bug-free version coming up.

Hi! First of all, thanks for trying it out :) ! The game was developed in 1.5 days as I was traveling, which is why its not that polished. However, you can do this to play it as intended:
- Spin the cursor around the pedal, the pedal should be at the center of rotation: In the playthrough, you're spinning it in some other location, so the pedal first goes halfway up, and then back down. I tried making it more intuitive by having the pedal spawn wherever you click, however, I've come to realize that this was a bad idea, It would be better to fix the pedal's position
- try slowly rotating the pedal when the cycle is flipped or mid-air: The cycle's spinning that way because you're rotating the pedal too fast mid air. I'm aware that it can spin around too fast, I noticed that during development, but I kinda thought it was hilarious, especially when you hit the ground while spinning like a chakra with a loud thud, and get launched into oblivion. I plan on keeping it and even adding an explosion when this happens for meme purposes
