RunMan: Race Around the World

What is RunMan: Race Around the World?

RunMan: Race Around the World is a high-velocity, side-scrolling platformer that celebrates the pure joy of speed. In this indie classic, you play as RunMan, the fastest creature alive, on a quest to prove your quickness across six preposterous zones. Featuring a unique hand-drawn art style and a upbeat soundtrack of vintage jazz and blues, it’s a racing experience like no other.

Gameplay & Mechanics

The core of the game is momentum. RunMan doesn't just walk; he builds up incredible speed that allows him to zoom through solid brick walls, bounce off enemies, and soar across massive gaps. The physics are snappy and rewarding—the faster you go, the more unstoppable you feel. Best of all, "dying isn't fun," so there are no game-over screens. If you take a hit, you simply lose a bit of time, keeping the focus entirely on your racing line.

Tips for Becoming a Legend

To hit those elusive Gold medal times, you must master the Wall-Kick and the Dive. Use wall-kicks to maintain height without losing forward speed, and dive into downhill slopes to trigger a massive velocity boost. Remember, the shortest path isn't always the fastest—look for hidden shortcuts tucked away in the environment!
