Story
Kingdom Hearts II
After Goofy fiddles around with the computer in the holding cell in Space Paranoids, Sora is forced to participate in the Light Cycle races. Before the race starts, a Devastator blasts a hole in the wall, and so during the race, Sora battles off his Magnum Loader opponents to reach the exit.

After getting captured by a Recognizer and meeting Sam Flynn, Riku is forced by CLU to play a round of Light Cycle. After derezzing numerous Guards, the Commantis appears, which Riku battles. The Dream Eater flees after its defeat. Tired of the game, Riku blasts a heart-shaped hole in the stadium wall and escapes through it, reuniting with Sam.
Design
The Light Cycles in Space Paranoids are based on the redesigned Light Cycles from the PC game, Tron 2.0. Template:Section-stub
Controls
Kingdom Hearts II
The Light Cycle mini-game operates under a rock-paper-scissors-esque attack system. If you Attack an enemy while it is guarding, you are blown away. If you use Charge against an enemy that is guarding, the barrier will be destroyed and the Heartless damaged. You can easily block a Charge with an Attack. If you pass through a barrier or run into a wall, you will take damage.
Guard: A shield surrounds the bike and protects against Heartless attacks. It protects from Attack, but is ineffective against Charge.
Charge: The bike charges up and then smashes the nearest target. It breaks through Guard, but is vulnerable to Attack.
Attack: Sora attacks Heartless with the Keyblade. It can be used against Charge, but is weak against Guard.
