You travel along the 4-lane road automatically, with the game taking care of corners for you, but you do need to use either thumbstick to move left or right across the tarmac, and to accelerate and slow down. However much (or little) lore you choose to consume beforehand, the game proper starts when you grab a couple of guns, hop onto your motorcycle, and tear off into the perpetual night. There is some rather heavy-handed noir-ish writing, but nevertheless, I would definitely recommend giving it a look.
DRAGON CITY GLITCHES PC
This free interactive story is available to download on iOS, Android, and PC and although it’s not necessary to have experienced it before playing Runner, it does set up the world and characters rather well. It’s worth noting here that there is a prologue of sorts called available for Runner. On the terminal, your contact/handler “Vice” tells you that you need to escape the city, and the only way of doing so is by taking on the attack drones of the sinister Caldera Corporation head-on through the city’s main motorway network. You start Runner in the alleyway of a neon daubed future cityscape with a tarp-covered motorbike in front of you and a computer terminal to your right. I haven’t played their earlier titles, but a little research has shown that they are almost universally well-regarded, albeit in what are perhaps niche markets.īut regardless of the quality of Akash or 2MD, it’s hard to deny that it’s a bit of a leap from visual novel to American Football to arcade driving action – so let’s get stuck in and see if Truant Pixel can pull it off. Runner marks another abrupt change in direction for the three-strong team, being what they describe as an ‘Arcade Inspired VR Driving Action game’. In 2020 they took a swerve and followed this up with 2MD: VR Football, a gridiron game that received a sequel just last month and which is available on Quest as 2MD: VR Football Unleashed. The developers of ( which we’ll be referring to as simply ‘Runner’), Truant Pixel began their game development journey with an Otome-style visual novel called Akash: Path of the Five in 2019.
