Mach Rider

Screenshots

A motorcycle rider in white and blue sits on a bike centered on a brown road stretching into the distance. The road is bordered by orange terrain on both sides, with a row of dark green trees along the horizon against a blue sky. A status bar at the top displays "SCORE", "ENERGY", and "SHOT" meters in black text with yellow gauge indicators, and an orange-brown rectangular panel on the right. The scene uses simple pixel art with a flat, scrolling perspective view typical of early NES racing games.
