If games such as Temple Run and BIT.TRIP.RUNNER have proven anything, it’s that the aptly named “endless runner” is the rising hit genre of choice for many players across the world. Techtonic Games hopes to expand on this concept with their new title, Bust-N-Rush. Players control Kovo, a half-man, half-machine who spends his life content with relaxing on his home planet with his pet plastic flamingo, Paco.
The classics never die and there are lots of examples from various genres that come into my mind. Arcade Runners have always been somewhat repetitive in nature, but Bust-n-Rush from Techtonic Games promises to bring a breath of fresh air for this gaming genre.
With an unbeatable objective and the continued possibility to get your personal top score just that little bit higher, it’s no surprise that the endless running genre developed as fruitfully as it did. With the unmistakable profits of Temple Run and BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, it was a given that the genre would attract some new faces with the promise of eternal wealth, or something along those lines, anyway. Bust-N-Rush, an endless running title developed by Techtonic Games, is the latest addition to the squabble and although offering the same fundamental gameplay we’ve seen before, Bust-N-Rush does make a good attempt in separating itself from the previous titles in the genre.
MasonicGamer.com - While many games use epic storytelling or complex mechanics to keep players engaged, some take a different approach and rely entirely on simple and satisfying gameplay. Bust-N-Rush by Techtonic Studios is definitely in the latter category.
Bust-N-Rush stars Kovo, a colossal man who has sworn vengeance on the evil Satellite of Wub. What did the Satellite of Wub do to earn such hatred, you ask? Why, it crushed Kovo’s best friend, Paco the pink plastic flamingo!
