The other shoots forward, destroying anything that’s in your path. One button shoots your massive gun downwards, propelling you through the air. The two-button setup is treacherously simple. With a cast of crazed characters, simple but beautifully difficult gameplay, and a pulsing musical score, RunGunJumpGun is a loud, trippy mess of twitchy platforming goodness.

Rounding out the package is an eclectic collection of chatty NPCs that punctuate each stage, building on the world and adding to the weirdness of the premise as a whole. It’s very energetic, and mixed with the explosiveness of both the sound effects and game elements it’ll raise your anxiety in all the right ways. The soundtrack is a pulsing and thumpy cadence to it, with a good mixture of proper techno with a dash of dub and industrial noise added in for good measure. The game has an almost monochromatic look to it, with dark backgrounds yet vibrant environments that pop. While fun on a mechanical level, the other piece of what makes RunGunJumpGun so enjoyable is its presentation. Which is good, because had the game made the action even a little loose it would have been an unsatisfying experience. The playable character’s floaty jump has a harsh yet fair physics system attached to it making it feel natural and precise. The controls are intuitive, with a small difficulty curve that’s waylaid by some solid level design and to-the-point tutorials. If anything proves to be too unmanageable, the game will let you skip to the next stage, but you’ll miss out on precious atomiks that you might need later in the process. This minimizes frustration, as trial-and-error is the bread-and-butter of RunGunJumpGun. He’ll quickly move his weapon as needed without lag, but you do have to consider that you’ll lose lift if you shoot forward and you’ll lose forward momentum if you get hung up on the environment.Īs mentioned, the game gives you two hits to try and make your way through, but will quickly dart you back to the beginning if you fail. Luckily, controlling our gun-toting hero is as simple as alternating the two shoulder buttons. Getting from point A to point B is harrowing and difficult, but the game also dangles that perfectionist carrot by also offering up little orbs known as atomiks that not only guide you to what the ideal path is, but also unlock new worlds down the road. RunGunJumpGun is a game about mastering you position. If it sounds daunting it is one tiny misstep can be haphazard, and with only two hits to your name anything less than near perfection will cause him to rocket back to the start of a stage posthaste. It’s your job to ensure he makes it by using said mini-gun to either blast past obstacles by pointing said firearm forward or to point it downwards in order to float him across gaps and violent quagmires. In it you play as a fellow with a death wish and a mini-gun who must traverse trap-laden stages while automatically running. Few games have a more apt, succinct title than ATOMIK: RunGunJumpGun.
