Run or Die (2014)

This game is so cheap that if you have any interest in runner games, you should give it a shot. The mechanics feel tight with a cool pixelated aesthetic. Each zone within each run will give you two abilities that are always randomized to keep things interesting. For $1 at full price, you can't go wrong here.

Good game

It's really good.

The graphics are nice and the music is comfy, but there are bits and pieces of gameplay issues that make the experience a lot more painful than it should be. Some of it comes from downright vile patterns (is the leap of faith you're about to do the one you're supposed to dive through, or the one you're supposed to float in the middle of with the ion laser? Have fun guessing!), a lot of it comes from bugs and other issues that aren't really acceptable in a game like this. Some examples (that I took screenshots of at least) include imprecise hitboxes (dying from touching thin air several pixels away from a box moving away from you), or lasers just deciding to disable however they feel like (you EMP a row of six lasers, only for the bottom two to disable first, then the top four afterwards, meaning you randomly die for trying to time it well). You might decide the price makes it worth it, and that's probably gonna be fair, but be wary that you'll likely take a bunch of deaths that aren't necessarily your fault.

A runner I actually enjoy, feels polished and it helps me relax when I feel anxious

Runner simple, pero muy entretenido.
