Introduction
Vex X3M is an exhilarating crossover game that blends the fast-paced, obstacle-dodging action of the Vex platformer series with the high-octane motorcycle stunts of the Moto X3M series. This 2D arcade-style game puts you in control of a stickman rider on a dirt bike, challenging you to navigate through 30 unique levels filled with treacherous traps like spikes, rockets, lasers, and moving platforms.
Combining skillful riding, precise timing, and daring tricks, Vex X3M offers an adrenaline-pumping experience where the goal is to reach the finish line as quickly as possible while avoiding deadly hazards.
How to play
Controls
- Accelerate: Press and hold the Up Arrow or W key to speed up your bike.
- Brake/Reverse: Use the Down Arrow or S key to slow down or move backward.
- Tilt Bike: Press the Left Arrow or A to tilt backward (lifting the front wheel), and the Right Arrow or D to tilt forward (lifting the rear wheel). This helps with balancing and performing tricks.
- The controls are intuitive but require practice to master, especially for landing jumps and flips.
Gameplay
- Start a Level: Begin riding from the starting point and accelerate through the track.
- Navigate Obstacles: Watch out for hazards like red spikes (instant death on contact), TNT boxes (explode after you ride over them), and moving saws or lasers. Anticipate what’s ahead to adjust your speed and tilt.
- Use checkpoints: Ride through red flags to activate checkpoints (they turn green). If you crash, you’ll respawn at the last checkpoint instead of the beginning, making the game more forgiving.
- Perform Tricks: While airborne, tilt your bike to perform front flips (tilt forward) or backflips (tilt backward). Successfully landing these shaves seconds off your time, boosting your score.
- Tile Types: Encounter special tiles with unique properties:
- Blue Tiles: Shatter immediately when ridden over.
- Purple Tiles: Break but respawn after a few seconds.
- Brown Tiles: Movable, adding a strategic element to some levels.
