Dec. 2024

Unexpecadly good runner. Very catching gameplay. Rhytmic and fast. Easily grabs attention and holds it as well. Appealing visuals. Thought i generally don't appreciate sci-fi theme. Besides sounds. I'm total synthwave fan, so it feels great for me.

First video game I ever played back on the original 2010 iPad. god bless it got me where I am today. Simple infinite runner. Jump left, right or straight to stay on the platforms, run over blue platforms to gain energy - you're scored on how much energy you get, not how much distance you travel. Careful, though, the more energy you pick up, the faster you go. Super simple gameplay, low specs so you can download it on like a Macbook you can take with you wherever you go, decent music loops all makes for a good game you can sit down with for 30 minutes and do some runs.

the only issue with this game is that it ends . it's simple but it's so effective and it's a great tribute to online flash endless runner games. aside from the nostalgia of playing it years ago on my phone. genuinely might be one of my favourite games, not because it's a masterpiece, but because it's fun and so good at what it does

May 2024

For my skill level this game is quite a difficult runner but I still found it surprisingly incredibly fun and addictive.

Very simple game with a difficult but engaging challenge. This one kept me determined for hours.
