The game was a 2D (motocross?) motorbike game. The controls were simple: accelerate, lean driver weight forward, lean driver weight backward and turn around. The challenge was the game's physics system, you had to keep control of the bike when riding over obstacles by shifting his weight to the back or front of the bike. If you landed on the rider's head you started from the beginning (I think).

I believe I ran it on windows 98.

The game had no textures, just a flat green colour for the environment, and I think the bike had red wheels, nothing fancy.

I desperately want to play this game again, can anyone guess what it was called?

You are on a torrid posting pace! Better knock that off, or your post count will be over 100 by the time 2007 arrives.

On topic: no idea, sorry.

Thanks guys, Elasto-Mania (what a random name!?) seems to be it. The graphics are definitely "swankier" than I remember them, I think they've been improved since. I remember the graphics looking more similar to the game Czar linked to.

Cool, thanks again!
