![]() Mainly, though, it's special because it gives me just too much to think about, so when I play it I am at war not just with the game, but with myself. It's suitably brutal, too, punishing me ceaselessly because it knows it can also offer me a near-instant restart. It's suitably lurid with migrainey colour schemes and a bizarre comic sci fi plot. The endless runner has never gone away, of course - Nintendo's just announced its own - and there are many I've loved since Canabalt, but RunGunJumpGun is special. (I have, of course, forgotten what these doodads are called.)Īll of which, thrown together, makes RunGunJumpGun an absolute delight to play: endless drama, frustration and self-hatred that I haven't really known since the glory days of Canabalt. To really thrive in RunGunJumpGun, you need to collect the little doodads scattered around each level, often in hard-to-reach places. It's not enough to simply survive - to eke out a kind of life by leaping over spikes, but not so high that you leap up into different spikes, and by blasting away at barrels that would otherwise leave you squished on geometry. Ulp! And it's bad news for me again, because to play RunGunJumpGun well, you really need to be able to remember three things. I've just put out an update that should automatically override VSync if the game detects frame rates too high (We're supposed to be frame-locked at 60fps). RunGunJumpGun - Special EditionThe Special Atomik Edition of RunGunJumpGun comes with the games thumping Original Digital Soundtrack (in High-Res MP3), and a Pack of Exclusive High-Resolution Wallpapers, including Original Cover Art created by famed artist El Huervo. That said, it's also good news for me, because it means I can just about play RunGunJumpGun, a 2D autorunner game in which you have two controls: you can shoot your gun downwards to give you some lift, and you can shoot it forwards to blow up things that are ahead of you. RunGunJumpGun 16 6 Little Update Some people with high refresh rate monitors have been reporting that the game runs way too fast. I say it's something like that, because I've forgotten. This is bad news for me, because the actual number of things you're meant to be able to remember is something like seven (+/-two). I can remember two things at the same time, and I can just about switch between them if I absolutely have to. How many things can you remember at once? I know the answer when it comes to me! It's two.
