Use the arrow keys in this side-scrolling driving game: the up arrow key to move forward, the left and right arrow keys to balance your bike, and the down arrow key to brake and drive in reverse. The X key will let you bounce and is especially useful when you're stuck - try and make your way through all eight levels without running out of credits.

Shadow Factory Walkthrough
Shadow Factory is a unique side-scrolling driving game where you're set to explore a decaying and abandoned nuclear factory. While the story and setting are surprisingly original, the control scheme is standard - you'll move by using the arrow keys, and although it may seem like you'd want to move forward by pressing the right arrow key, you'll move forward when pressing the up arrow key, so get used to it quickly.
But that's the least of your worries when you first start playing Shadow Factory. The bike you're driving, an ATV, has a damage bar that's in the top-left section of the screen. And it's a bar that fills up quite quickly. You'll rack up damage by flipping your bike, taking spills, and running into obstacles and objects. Although it wouldn't seem like that big of a problem, you're in an abandoned nuclear factory, and that makes this driving game a lot more difficult.
When you do end up destroying you bike - and it will happen sooner than later - you'll be taken to a continue screen. Each restart takes 2000 credits - the cost of a new bike - and after five tries, you'll eventually run out of money. Since you're driving through eight levels, it's best that you try and survive for as long as possible - at least until the levels actually start getting difficult.
Overall, Shadow Factory a unique driving game you'll have to take your time with, rather than speeding through every level. Since your ATV is so fragile, paying attention to each obstacle and pitfall will help you a lot more than it can hurt you - and you'll end up getting a lot farther in the game for doing so.
