Achtung! Die Kurve!

I just remembered this awesome game yesterday. Hours of multiplayer fun.
I am upping it to the zone. It is like lightcycles, but with curves. It is czech I think and PD as far as I know. Graphics and music are pretty good for this type of game. Dunno how rare this is.

To run use A1200 68EC020 config, and at amigados prompt type "kurve" and enter.

Each player uses 2 keys. At least 2 players required. First enable players by pressing their respective 2 keys as listed on title screen. Then after at least two players are enabled, press space to start.

Anybody played this on amiga back in the day? With five players this game is absolutely insane! And it speeds up and speeds up as you go!

Great fun! I just tried it as single player with 2 of the "snakes"...
BTW, interesting german gamename while the game itself seems to be czech.

This fits. Colloquially we use "Kurven" (plural) for "breast"

A similar case with Polish...

So for me it reads like "Look out! B*tches!". Now that's a game you don't play every day

More for the whole body in general, not particularly for "breast".

Anyway, I would translate the game's title as "Mind the bend!".
