About Runner Overdrive
Runner Overdrive is a fast-paced 2D movement shooter platformer about delivering packages in a post-apocalyptic world, after the moon was blown apart and its remnants began infecting the planet below.
MOVE FAST, SHOOT FASTER
Movement is the key to survival. Fling yourself around using the recoil from your trusty revolver and use the world around you as a launch pad. Stay frosty, don't run out of ammo, and you just might survive long enough to keep working.
DELIVER THE PACKAGE
You were hired as a delivery runner. Delivering what? Who knows. Your only job is to make sure the package arrives safely. What happens in transit is up to you, whether that's baiting an enemy with the package to land a fatal blow or tucking it away to clear a safe path. Your fate is in your hands (or is it?).
UPGRADE YOUR GEAR
Bolster your stats, create wild builds, and gain an overwhelming advantage over your enemies with upgrades, or use Overdrives to turn the tide when things get dicey. Stock up between missions, choose your loadout carefully, and make sure you're ready for whatever gets in your way.
MEET THE LOCALS
The world is held together with duct tape and denial, and the people in it aren't much different. Get to know your crew, talk to the people you probably shouldn't, and figure out what actually happened to make everything this bad. The world didn't end by accident, and someone out there knows exactly why it happened and how to fix it.
