Gameplay[edit]

SpeedRunners

SpeedRunners is played as a fast-paced side-scroller. Players compete with each other to outrun their opponents using grappling hooks, power-ups and interactive environments. The screen moves with whatever player is currently in the lead. Falling behind far enough off the screen results in players dying to the players who still remain on-screen. As the player progresses they earn experience based on their performance. Getting enough experience points causes the player to level up which unlocks new power-ups, levels, characters, and skins.[10]

Kotaku's Alex Jones termed SpeedRunners as 'competitive multiplayer Mario that Nintendo should've made'.[1]PC Gamer's Emanuel Maiberg said it to be a 'fully realized idea', with the exception of 'occasional bug and some rough art assets'.[2]Rock, Paper, Shotgun's Ben Barrett praised the game's simplicity.[12]

SpeedRunners won the Gamer's Voice Award in the 2015 SXSW Gaming Award,[13] the 2014 Best Multiplayer Game Award by Indie DB,[14] and was nominated for Best PC/Console Game at the 2012 Dutch Game Awards.[15]

The game received criticism from Brett Posner-Ferdman who reviewed the game on Nintendo Switch for Nintendo World report, who criticised the game for lacking story mode, having little content outside multiplayer and for locking content behind DLC.[11]Hungry flame download free.
