Two or more players are represented by dual-wheeled motor vehicles, or cycles, in a grid-lined arena. The vehicles constantly move forward, although there is a way to change one's velocity: the closer a player is to a wall, the faster their cycle will move. Players can change the direction of movement, by turning 90 degrees to the left or right. The vehicles leave a colored wall behind them as they travel. Contact with this wall will result in death and elimination from the battle. Therefore, players attempt to "box" each other in within these walls in order to force the opponent to touch their wall.
On the computer game there are more game modes, but atm my clone only supports the death-match mode
( Last player alive wins )
Screens
--- omg, without movement you wont define whats on the screen... but here some samples ----
Info; The green lines are marking the ground, the blue ones the walls
the other colors are player-lines

[ Btw. dont tell me, I know that the CPU isnt a genius... if you want an unkillable CPU change the CPU-Skillnes in the menu,
The CPU is done in one day... I want to focus on multiplayer~~]
Since there is no ingame-buttonmap:
(Lol even if its kinda simple)
