Vex X3M

Stick figures are often perplexed by all the scenarios they find themselves in, and the Vex team is no different when being in Vex X3M. It seems that this group of stick figures wants to be the most extreme, and the way they're going about it is to get themselves some motorcycles and drive them along the most twisted paths. This means that they'll be putting themselves in a lot of danger, but that also means that they have the potential to be very radical. They still need to ride the motorcycles well, or they'll have to get used to being smeared along the road.

About Vex X3M

The thing about motorcycle games is that they're enjoyable as both skill challenges and just sending motorcycles crashing all over the place. This game may have been trying to avoid crashing, but it's no big deal if it happens. The stick figures are prepared to crash everywhere and won't let some wild tracks dissuade them. They'll rely on you for navigation to reach the end and have an explosive finish. Any explosions before the finish line won't be as well received as possible. That's why you must learn about riding and controlling your bike in an unexpected environment to be rad truly.

How to Play

Vex X3M is a 2D arcade game about a stick figure riding a motorcycle along tracks using the keyboard.

Controls

W/Up Arrow - Accelerate
S/Down Arrow - Decelerate/Reverse
A/Left Arrow - Tilt Left
D/Right Arrow - Tilt Right

The goal is to reach the finish line at the end of the track. The timer and number of deaths you've had will be shown in the top right corner of the screen. If the stickman's head touches any solid object, it'll explode, and you'll need to retry.

The main menu lets you use coins to buy and choose different bikes. After you've got your bike, you can head to the level select and choose any level that you've already unlocked via progress. At the start, the stick figure will spawn on a bike and then set loose to ride. As it rides down the track, the path can twist, loop, and have various bumps or gaps to navigate. There will also be hazards like explosive barrels, spikes, and loose platforms that you'll need to avoid. Get the bike across the finish line, and you'll beat the track with stars rewarded based on speed and number of deaths.

Tips and Tricks

This is one of those loose physics bike games that make your bike difficult to control. It can be sent flying easily and can tilt sharply on the ground or in the air, but you can use this to your advantage to make precise adjustments. Manage your speed and anticipate how that bike will need to move as the track changes.
