FMX Team - Time Waster

FMX Team is a motocross game where jumping and pulling off tricks to rack up your score is the name of the game. It's a typical side-scrolling motocross game, but is executed quite well and is fun to play. Unfortunately, the points system in the game is a little bit simplistic, so the best way to rack up your score is to consistently pull off the highest number trick that your rider can do, over and over again. FMX Team has one gimmick, which is that you have a stable of three riders to choose from, and you can not use any one rider twice in a row. I found the #2 and #3 riders to be the most useful due to them both accelerating faster than the #1 rider, even though rider #1 has a higher top speed.
To get a high score, it seems that you need to find a jump where you can sit and perform flips and tricks over and over again without advancing through the level, but then make sure to make it to the end before the time is up. But if you're not too worried about getting a high score, and just want to have a fun quick time waster, FMX Team is worth your 15 minute coffee break.
So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place. That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Excitebike it is certainly not. More like Shitebike. After more than a hundred attempts, I was unable to get to the end of the first course. The bike is impossible to stabilize, let alone do any tricks.
