Synopsis
Little dude runs and jumps. But hit those bright pads on your run, and nutty things start happening. Clones. Numbers. Upsidedownity. Each one you hit multiplies your score, so do it! DO IT! Concentrate on the running, and dig the intense music, specially crafted to motivate your lazy self.

Gameplay
The gameplay of Glowrunner is a sports game. Its like Temple Run. An endless runner that is crazy to play. Even though there its similar to Temple Run, you dont collect coins or objects. There are no upgrades to help you. The game is just crazy because the path you are running on constantly flips over. The bumps in the ground cause distortions. This means your character will be clumsy and be spinning around a lot. While your character runs, he leaves behind tiny little dots sparks. It seems as if he is running in puddles and the water is splashing everywhere. And when your path flips over so does the color. Hitting bumps on the ground will give you multipliers. The multiplier and score you have are shown on the top left of the screen. When youre playing, you might want to turn off the sound because the music is annoying. But thats just me. At first the player shouldn't get the hang of it on his first try, it will take the player to get a little use to and they will then realize that they need to be ready and concentrated. I really enjoy how fun and addicting this game actually is but its one of those games that can get boring really fast too. It is a very repetitive game which is another reason it could get boring.


Graphics
Theres not much to look at. The only objects you can see is the path your hopping on, the glowing stick figure character, and the background which is just a bunch of dots. I really dont like how this game glows because it hurts my eyes. If you mess up then that is the only chance youre getting so you have to start over. Each levels fail thing is different like said before, the path goes upside down then you die the opposite way. Sometimes I dont how to hop on to another path when it flips over. Im not sure If I am supposed to jump up or down.. Everything on this game runs really smooth; the animations are average for a minigame. I really how everything on this runs smooth with no lag and see the different things that happen when the game is progressing.


Controls
The controls of this game are just one little control, press the spacebar to jump. Thats the only action you have to do in the game and this gets boring but players need to be on the ball when playing. Sometimes the game starts to shake. For example the screen goes dim and the game starts shaking so you need to pay close attention or else you will die. So the controls are great and is just one simple button to do, it is great and is not confusing. Maybe in the future they will add more obstacles which may require more buttons. I really enjoy the game and with these controls it makes it really easy to play. Overall the controls of this game are just plain out simple which always makes things fun.
