The briefing

About this game

Enduro Racer is an arcade motorcycle racing game viewed from behind the rider. It builds on the style of Hang-On while moving the action off-road, adding hills, declines, roadside hazards, and obstacles placed directly on the track.

Gameplay

Players steer, accelerate, brake, and perform wheelies for a temporary speed increase. Wheelies reduce maneuverability, while logs and sand barriers can be jumped to launch the bike into the air. Races progress from checkpoint to checkpoint, with each section requiring the finish line to be reached within a time limit.

Stages and Environments

The game includes five stages set across grasslands, two types of desert, a forest lake, and a beach. Hazards include rival bikers, trees, signs, rocks, and other objects on the road.
