Neon Runners: Craft & Dash, a new side-scrolling platformer, is now available on Android. This globally launched game features adorable anime girls navigating challenging obstacle courses. A key feature is the ability to create and share custom courses with other players.
Anykraft, the developer, clearly draws inspiration from Nintendo's successful Mario Maker formula. The map-sharing aspect, a popular feature even before Mario Maker, is central to Neon Runners' design. Players control cute anime girls as they navigate perilous courses, tackling both pre-designed and user-created levels.
However, the game incorporates a controversial element: an emphasis on Bitcoin. Players can earn sweepstakes tickets redeemable for rewards, including cryptocurrency – a feature the developers prominently highlight. This aspect may be a deterrent for some players.
Visually Appealing Gameplay
The "Craft" aspect of the title likely refers to the course creation feature, potentially also serving SEO purposes. The game appears to offer fast-paced, engaging gameplay with vibrant graphics and challenging obstacles.
Despite the potentially off-putting inclusion of cryptocurrency rewards and a friend referral program, the game's core mechanics might appeal to those unfazed by such features.
