Unknown Games #5: Radikal Bikers (GBC)

[paulbrk]

The game was developed in Spain, on Cataluña, I worked on the graphics of the game as a pixel artist on Bit Managers from April 1999 to September 2001, it was a great time there.

[CrashManEXE]

@paulbrk - You know, I'm quite surprised that you were part of that game's development if it's really true.

[TaylorKazarian]

I remember playing this in my local pizza parlor when I was about 5 or 6 years old. O Dear the memories...:)

[Metaflossy]

What kind of town is this, there are blue roads and bright pink/green/red buildings

[Stan1992]

I don't know about the gbc version, but sure it's full of arcade machines with this game here in Italy.

Warm greetings to the red car appearing out of nowhere at 05:47.

[CrashManEXE]

Haha, I never noticed that :P

[Adaman120]

Cool music.

[legendofthefox]

Catchy music

[NotturnoMilo]

Seems like a good port! Even the original RB give you really low time... You can do only 2-3 mistakes and you have to take all the bonuses to win! It's really hard...

RADIKAL BIKERS WAS DEVELOPED IN SPAIN

[CrashManEXE]

Was it? And how did you know that?

[NotturnoMilo]

@CrashManEXE

I think because Gaelco was a Spanish company! ;)

For sure the arcade version is 100% Gaelco, the PS1 version is probably made by someone else too

[CrashManEXE]

You're right, it is a Spanish company. I just looked it up on Wikipedia :P

[codeman38]

@CrashManEXE Both this version and the PS1 port were developed by Bit Managers, another Spanish company.

[kaiokendo]

@CrashManEXE IN MY COUNTRY DOESN`T HAVE PLAYSTATION MAGAZINES AND IN MY COUNTRY HAVE IMPORT SPANISH MAGAZINES AND I HAVE DISCOVER THAT AN SPANISH ARCADE COMPANY MADE THIS GAME IN PSX AND GBC

[Axe995]

I think I've actually seen the arcade version in the local amusement park.

[BaerXIII]

It was pretty cool in the Arcades but far from a good game.

[sonicfan966]

I remember seeing this in the arcade of Disney World, didn't play it though.

[GreenPhoenix91]

The music is like megaman meets pokemon.

[codeman38]

The music's good, at least. (Same guy who did the music in the Smurfs game that was hacked into Pocket Monsters Go Go Go, incidentally.)

[CrashManEXE]

Funny that you mention that, because I can recognise most sound effects from the Smurfs GBC game.

[SnaffleJBean]

This looks like Polasris SnoCross but with a different theme. The camera angle and controls are pretty much the exact same

[The8BitWarrior]

dosen't look too bad. Are the controls alright?

[CrashManEXE]

The controls are alright, I suppose.
