Windows indie game you need to play : Runman : Race Around the World

boxartYes, I am well aware that this is not an Xbox Live Indie Game ... but I never said I was specific to the 360. Look around the site and you'll find DOS games, Windows games, reviews for Wii games, etc etc.

This game is one of the most addictive games I've ever seen. Has Sonic got ya down lately with the new games that have come out lately that have been complete and utter crap? Do you want a fun, fast paced platformer with superb level design and great graphics? Look no further than here folks, this is some great stuff.

Graphically, it looks like a really bad flash game, but it comes off with so much style and a great sense of humor about it with some awesome effects in all it's simplicity. The music is corny old country sounding stuff that fits perfectly. Everything about this game is awesome.

You basically run to the right. It has uberhelpful signs posted everywhere to help you play the game and get the most out of it. You just use the directional keys to move, the Z key to zoom to get past obstacles and enemies and X to jump through bright colorful environments and superbly crafted level design. It couldn't be simpler. Or could it. ;)

Check out the official site right here and donate a little bit if you like the game, or you can just click below to download it and give it a try. And don't worry about whether or not you can run it if you're like me and have a slower/crappy system spec-wise. If it runs beautifully on my little netbook, it should run on just about anything. You owe it to yourself to play this.
