You may know RunMan from his appearance as a playable character in Super Meat Boy. Or you are a true indie gaming hipster and know him from even earlier. An epic collaboration between Tom Sennett (Deepak Fights Robots) and Maddy Thorson (TowerFall, Celeste), RunMan: Race Around the World is a platformer with an emphasis on speed and flow. To get a good score on each course, you have to run through it really fast without stopping. The actual scoring is a bit more complex than that, but that's basically it. You can't die, because dying's not fun.

And what fun is a race without running???Read more
