I've Got to Run
SCORE: 56
Endless runner apps have become all the
rage on the iPhone, iPad, and Android platforms. Nintendo has been
porting apps over to the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. So it should come as no
surprise to see an endless runner like I’ve Got to Run on the Wii U.
Family Friendly Gaming purchased I’ve Got to Run for $1.99. There was
taxes on that - even though as a business we are not supposed to pay
them.
I’ve Got to Run is simple and very small. There are only a couple of
screens. The background graphics are not that great looking. I’ve Got to
Run could have been a 16-bit game looking at the graphics. Which is a
shame because this game has some real potential. I can think of multiple
iOS and Android runners that look way better than I’ve Got to Run.
I’ve Got to Run uses old game play mechanics as well. The main character
Roy the Marshmallow Boy stays on the left of the screen. The floor is
what is moving. This looks and feels like an 8-bit video game. Maybe
even before the 8-bit era. A score of how far you run is kept in the
upper left hand screen. Fall and it resets to zero. The floor resets so
quickly you might even miss your characters falling off the screen.
The music in I’ve Got to Run is okay. Nothing too wonderful. Nothing
offensive either. The music can get repetitive. I will say the music in
I’ve Got to Run matches the rest of this downloadable only video game.
I’ve Got to Run contains Endless Classic, Endless Double, Endless
Special, Save, Credits, and High Scores. Classic is a straight on
runner. Double gives your character a double jump. Special gives a
double jump and items. There are green and red items. The green items
speed up the pace of the race, and the red items slow down the pace. The
other three should be self explanatory.
