Wheelie

Starting a Game

To play the game using a controller, press the Control options button on the main menu, then press the Select Joystick button. When you’re ready to start the game, press the Start button on the controller.

To begin the game using keyboard controls, press any key on the bottom row of the keyboard.

When prompted for a level code, press Enter on the keyboard to progress. If you have a level code from a previous playthrough, use this to begin the game from the level with the specified code.

Gameplay

Use the left and right movement keys to change the motorbike’s throttle. To change directions, move the throttle to zero, and move in the desired direction to increase the throttle and begin moving.

Some obstacles require the motorbike to make a jump - carefully time pressing the up movement key to wheelie on the bike with a moderately fast speed, keeping an eye on the indicated movement direction in the bottom middle of the screen.

Performing a wheelie when the bike is about to move over a ramp will perform a jump, allowing the player to clear obstacles.

Wheelie contains a number of different hazards which the biker can encounter on the roads.

The Zedexaki bike has a limited supply of fuel. More fuel can be found in the world as pickups, appearing as text saying GAS. Move the motorbike over a fuel pickup to pick it up.

Travel to the end of each level by making your way through the obstacles, and not running out of fuel. When the end of a level is reached, the Ghost Rider will appear. Race the Ghost Rider back through the level to the start in order to finish the level. While racing the Ghost Rider back to the start, touching him will destroy the bike, losing a life.

Obstacles

Ice

Displayed as text saying ICE. If the bike is moving too quickly when crossing ice, the bike will slide out of control, causing the player to lose a life.

Ramps and Humps

Various ramps and cube-shaped bumps can be found throughout each level. To pass these obstacles, try to move the bike at a moderate to fast speed depending on the size of the obstacle, and move up to perform a wheelie. Some of the obstacles can take some trial and error - try and find the right balance of speed when approaching different obstacles in each level.

Wildlife

Depending on the current level, different wildlife will move along paths in some areas of the level. If the bike touches the wildlife, the bike is destroyed and a life is lost. Creatures can be frozen by pressing the Freeze enemies key, at the expense of using a large amount of fuel while frozen.

Dead ends

If the bike touches the barriers before the wall in a dead end, the bike will be destroyed, losing the player a life. Slow down quickly enough and turn using the movement key opposite to the direction the bike is moving in before hitting a dead end.

Scoring

Floating blue wheels can be found throughout each level. If the bike manages to touch a wheel, it will be collected, giving the player 50 points.
