The E.T. game may not be very popular with humans… but the Sarlacc can't get enough of it! :D

ATV Simulator?

Can't even remember now if there were checkpoints, there may have just been a finish line.

I'm trying to decide if this one is worth persevering with to try and get a score above zero.
Allowing you to progress through all the levels with virtually no progress and zero score on the previous level takes away the incentive to try again - you've seen everything on offer after one (very rubbish) go.
Could have been a contender for the Flappy-Bird-of-its-era award if you had to complete a level before progressing.

Just looking at the loading screen for Olympimania, why are some of those circles, not actual circles. Surely it’s easier to draw mathematically correct circles than not to?
