The Run 20XX
A downloadable game for Windows
Vinny and Dan are trying to meet with the rest of the Giant Bomb crew in San Francisco!
They'll have to fight their way through to get there!
This is a 2 player action game. It's not recommended to play solo, but you can try!
Move with the joystick or dpad
Shoot with [X] or [B]
Jump with [A]
Slide with [A] and [Down]
Hold your ground by holding [TRIGGER]
Return to the main menu with [BACK]
Pause with [START]
Restart level with [R] on the keyboard
You can switch to fullscreen by pressing [ALT + ENTER] on your keyboard!
Made for Giant Rom 5
v1.1
- Added 1 Player mode: Both are harder, because enemy's HP is not adjusted. Dan's is the hardest, on account of his terrible autofire. That's what you get for having a SOCOM!
- Fixed a collision bug on the last boss.
- Fixed the resolution of the hit effect for large enemies.
- Keyboard inputs are as follow:
WASD, Space (jump), Shift (shoot) and Ctrl (hold) for P1
Arrow keys, Numpad 0 (jump), Numpad 1 (hold), and Numpad 2 (shoot) for P2
Only P1 (space) can go through dialogs!
I'm open to feedback to improve those inputs!
v1.0
Feel free to drop a comment with any found issue!
Keyboard mapping is terrible at the moment, and will be addressed in a future update, after the jam is over.
If you get stuck, or are curious, you can use Numpad 1 through 4 to load specific levels.
Thank you for not spoiling/tagging members of Giant Bomb! I'd love to see their genuine reaction if they do a stream, and would rather not have them know what they get into. Thank you!

Amazing and beautiful game, as expected from you Ellian :D
Bug report time! Since it's kind of a spoiler, it's in strikethrough text I guess:
I got locked down as the falling monitor landed on me! Couldn't move or jump, and it happened in a place where I couldn't die so I had to restart that level with R.Ah, yes, that is the one bug I was fully aware of when I coded that part in a rush at the last minute ahahah...
I'll put a warning in the game's description, I've been racking my brain at how to deal with this particular issue for the past two days. I'm sure I'll find a way to fix it when I drop a patch!
Thank you for your feedback <3
A common way is to just say "while the player is stuck in a solid object, move the player up (or some other direction) until they're not". Bit of a lazy band-aid fix, but it'll do the trick :P
Ahaha that's exactly what I ended up thinking about after a walk with my dog; considering the layout of the only room it can happen in, that's a pretty solid solution :)
You were right, that solution is really working well ahah
