Scout is a location-based cycling game from Ride with GPS that turns real Portland routes into playable adventures. Players click map icons to trigger auto-routed rides at accelerated speed, collect items, and explore the city on two wheels. The game features free-roam controls and interactive elements designed to showcase a full RPG world launching soon.
Available now as a playable teaser on iPhone and Android for Portland riders, Scout requires no signup to try—just an email for full game invites. The maker built this prototype using Claude Code, combining real routing data with dynamic map theming and sprite-based graphics to create an engaging 30-second introduction to the upcoming full release.
