As the 3rd person that has ever played this game, I can say it's pretty goated.

It's a party game, and I'm pretty much a party of one. However, even though I've only played this single-player, I've absolutely enjoyed it! When I first got Runbow, it was on the Wii U (yes, I've known about it for [i]that long![/i]), and I played every mode (I even tried Bowhemoth, but never finished it). Now that I have it on Steam, I'm gonna be playing it all over again to try and get every achievement - barring the multiplayer ones, because... well, no one wants to play this game with me. 😔 Runbow is an unique platformer, because some objects are affected by the color of the backdrop. If the same color platforms, lasers, etc. match the backdrop, they disappear, but when the background changes color, they reappear. This gives it a playing style that I don't think has been tried before or since this game's release. Your goal in most of the game is to get a trophy, though sometimes it's to defeat monsters or collect coins. The levels in Adventure Mode + Satura's Space Adventure are quite challenging.

Runbow is a vibrant multiplayer platformer developed and published by 13AM Games that distinguishes itself with one of the most imaginative gameplay mechanics in the genre. At first glance, it appears to be a traditional side-scrolling racing game, but the constantly shifting background colors dramatically alter the environment throughout every match. Platforms, walls, and hazards sharing the active background color disappear from the stage, forcing players to react instantly as safe paths become dangerous and previously inaccessible routes suddenly open. This clever concept transforms every race into an unpredictable contest where awareness and quick thinking are just as important as platforming skill. The game places a heavy emphasis on multiplayer competition, supporting large groups both locally and online. Whether players are sprinting toward the finish line, battling in arena-style matches, or fighting for control of specific objectives, every mode encourages frantic interaction and constant movement. The straightforward control scheme makes it easy for newcomers to participate, while experienced players can master advanced movement techniques and strategic positioning to ga…
