Gaijin Games' Bit.Trip series takes classic 8-bit arcade style concepts and retrofits them to incorporate chiptune-based rhythm game mechanics. Bit.Trip Runner is the fourth installment in the WiiWare series, and for this iteration, the developers are introducing rhythm-based platforming into the mix.
With the inclusion of the original game and a set of new mechanics that slot in naturally, Bit.Trip Rerunner is a stellar example of a remake.
Bit Cultures writer Conner plays through his Steam library in alphabetical order, writes a brief summary of his experience on each game, and then gives them his own personal rating. Here's week 9 of Steam A to Z!
This week's Humble Weekly Bundle looks like a must-buy. You can pay what you want for Shank 2, Blocks That Matter, and BIT.TRIP RUNNER. Paying $6 or more gets you Runner 2, Fly'n, and Megabyte Punch.
