How to ride the bike in the arcade room [SOLVED]

[MyUsername]

I am in the arcade room and trying to power up the games by cycling.

I make sure game 1 is selected with the lever.  The robot sits on the seat and I circle the screen. His legs move, the wheels go round but other than a little flicker the hand in the gauge , the hand (arrow) never moves.  It never generate power despite how quickly or long I park for.  Any ideas?

I have an exact same issue on HTC One (M7)
I pedal like crazy and nothing. Once I got it to move to about a quarter of power and then it went back.

Please fix this as I am stuck.

Anyone reading this? We're stuck and can't move on.

After some experimenting, the only possible explanation that I could come up with is that perhaps you both are making too tight or too small of a circle when pedaling; try making a wider circle and see if that helps.

Otherwise I would suggest contacting Amanita Design about the issue using the form at the bottom of this page:

I found a solution, I was going too fast. Usually I started slow and accelerated, whenever I started to rotate a bit faster the arrow actually dropped so I tried even faster. The key is to do it rather consistent and SLOW! It should work, try it.

I'm glad you found a solution, Crayox. And thanks for following up. :)
