DoubeDutch Games is bringing some much needed fast running action to Steam Early Access with SpeedRunners. Do you think you have what it takes to outrun your friends, their friends, people on the Internet!?! It’s not just your feet either as you’ll have grappling hooks, power-ups and if you’re quick enough you can even use the level to your advantage.
SpeedRunners gives no one the advantage even when you’re the leader. Kind of like when you were in first place during that marathon and turned around to raspberry the other runners and ended up running face first into that tree. In SpeedRunners everyone sees the same thing so while mr bringing up the rear is far behind he known’s exactly what’s ahead of him. Time your moves just right and use your second place advantage to blast past the leader at the last second for assured couch fisticuffs.
Speaking of couches, SpeedRunners supports local co-op, how could an awesome game of catch me if you can, watch out for that rocket, oh I’m sorry did you eat that wall not! Local couch and online multiplayer can be played in any combination so invite your friends or challenge the world, the choice is yours! Be sure to check out the trailer below and pick it up on Steam right here for $9.99 or a four pack for $29.99.
