Fig. 8: 'Control A Bicycle Through Technical Diagram Suburbia'

Hoping to find a sponsor, Greg "aeiowu" Wohlwend of Intuition Games (Effing Hail) posted this trailer for Fig. 8, a simple Flash title that has players navigating a bicycle through a continuous scrolling world of technical diagrams.

Fig. 8 encourages players to finish the course with as many points as possible (riding through the entire field takes about 12 minutes, without any deaths). Avoiding sharp turns and keeping the lines from your wheels together increases your points multiplier, but crashing into one of the figures resets your score.

Hopefully the trailer will attract a sponsor, and we'll be able to play Fig. 8 soon!
