ONCE IT BITES, IT WON'T LET GO.
You're a woman working the night shift at the 24/24 Mad Dog Convenience store in the U.S, in the year 2009. You're trying to survive. Pay rent. Stay awake. Pretend your life hasn't stalled.
But one day, a man in a helmet - painfully shy - begins showing up night after night. He never says much. Never takes off his helmet.
You donโt remember everything. But thereโs something about the blood you canโt forget.

MEET THE CHARACTERS AND LOVE INTERESTS.

Omg I'm so excitedโ โงโ โฝโ โฆโ !! thanks by the way
estara en espaรฑol??
Big, big fan. Excited to learn more about BB. You also made Lane feel so real.
Mysterious biker man, please continue to
stalksave us.When will the Android version come out?I really need it!!!
You can install joiplay
Does anybody know how to get this ending, because I tried but I couldn't seem to get it ๐ญ๐๐ฅ
That's a scene from shift 3 which isnt out yet ๐
how can you..get to the part where hes in his tank top?
We can't yet, these are just spoilers for shift 3 and we have to wait another month to get to them
i adore BB i can't wait for the new shift!
hii, ik this is a big question, but did you think about the possible endings?? i want to know if i can happily date lane เซฎ(หถใ ๏ธฟใ )แ
Its mentioned on her tumblr that theres gonna be routes for lane, BB and Amelia!
I had an amazing time playing this game, please update soon !
shift 3 will be out near the end of june !!! โก
PLEEEEASE MAKE AN ANDROID VERSION
YOU CAN EMULATE(? IT WITH JOIPLAY
Hi guys! just the latest update, laly said she thinks shift 3 will be out around june based off her post on tumblr, follow her page to see more updates!
do u know what is her tumblr?
where-spar0w-barks !!
thanks pookie <3
must the discord show ur identification card in full?
totally related why the MC is tired all day XD. Girl stands through the night shift, walking back and forth from home to work, walked up 15 floors every day. Respect to the MCโ
at least she must have body tea because anyone who has that tiring routine would have defined muscles
I do relate with your opinion, but if the MC had another gender then the game would have no romance and it would lose a big part of the plot, because the characters are hetero, except for Amelia ofc and both of the males are sexist so I don't think that Laly could make it work without changing the whole history
Used to watch Feldup (as a french creepypasta's lover myself) And i DAMN love this freaky VN. Un empire indescriptible tant c'est bien scรฉnarisรฉ. PLS...shift 3 SHIFT 3!!! J'ai comme l'impression que ce vn est une grande partie de ma vie, comme l'ont รฉtรฉ mes longues journรฉes de Feldup ๐ญ๐ญ. Im waiting, ive gotten that in my list. Im watching u ๐

I dont have tumblr, can someone update me on the shift 3 progress???
You can check the shift 3 development log just above the comment section, but basically spar0w said she's almost done, so I think shift 3 is going to be released around may-ish ^^
laly's past the 120k word count, and there still isnt an exact confirmed date but she said shift 3 will definitely be out before july !! โก

lane is so cute, i cant wait for more content with him
I would like to add, this is one of the best visual novels i have ever seen. The art style is beautiful, the way you write and draw the characters is amazing. The way they develop throughout the story is so damn good. The story line is great, genuinely one of the best ive ever played before. I adore your work and your characters, thank you for creating big bad dogs (ใ ยด ห `)
lane is so ew ๐ญ๐ญ genuinely hate that guy.
but i love bb he's like the perfect yandere. i love this game so far!!!! the dialogue is peak
the downvotes are killing me LMFAO rip ๐ dont say you dislike a character on itch.io or they'll jinjja kill you
LMAOOO FR ๐ญ i didn't expect people to downvote so bad but tbh i get it i guess? i just can't stand how sexist he is ๐๐ had to say something about it
btw dont get your hopes up with bb because hes the exact same as lane, only he hides it better LMFAO
NOOOOO๐๐๐
god he's like so hot if he could just stfu. i wish we could get an option to ultimately humble his loser incel ass lol
literally he is so hot but then again his attitude and sexism makes me find him nasty ๐คข i have respect for myself and MC!!! let's have standards now ladies
this is so good oh my goodness
love bb, tolerate lane
WORD!!
This game is so fun!!! It's kind of easy to miss things at first and I wish there were more save slots, but otherwise I can't wait for there to be more shifts! Which is something I would have never said irl.
i think save slots r unlimited, u js have to keep pressing the arrow that's pointing to the right ^^
Ohh, I guess I didn't pay attention, that's really good to know
No hay una versiรณn para Android?
puedes ponerlo en espaรฑol porfavor
is there a route to get them all๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
deadahh bro. i like them both T-T
i need shift 3 right now pleaseeee im desperate
BB kinda gives me creeps, I hope he won't kill Lane๐ญ๐ญ
Is there any update for release date of shift 3?
itโs coming this April
No its not babes? No release date has been confirmed yet.
I think we should wait for them the time they'll need, when they update they update, we all should be patient
I was told in the discord server but the date has been pushed back!
whennnnn
theres no confirmed date yet, but its out soon im sure !! you can keep up with updates on spar0w's tumblr where-spar0w-barks <3
No se si sere la unica que itch.io no le deja descargar ningun juego, alguien sabe porque pasa esto ???
girls how do you get the suicide ending?
i think you need to ignore info about the killer (so don't ask the guy for more info in the store and don't watch the tv) and then also have low points with BB and then bad thing happens to MC and there's no BB to protect her which leads to suicide ending
thank you so much palmtree im gonna try it! loveyouloveyouloveyou :*
good luck!!
ts is so peak omg. i played it when it first released but this update it so- just- UGH ITS SO GOLDEN?? feed me more updates please
This is the longest demo I've ever tried and I'm absolutely delighted, I simply LOVE Biker Boy.
