Thank you for your continued support to Highway Runners! What's new in this version: - Finally optimized for the latest iPhones. Enjoy an immersive retro experience in full screen! - Adjusted difficulty: traffic density has been slightly reduced in some cases for a softer progression. - The 'continue's now only cost one HR token, regardless of the number of continues previously used. - And HR tokens have been made slightly more frequent. - Fixed an issue with save states.

Fantastic graphics but too hard

This looks fantastic and plays well, get it!

Gently does it.

Am I doing something wrong on this? For a love letter to Outrun it doesn’t move very fast. Dodge cars and collect coins at 35mph!
Every other part of this game is polished though, it’s just a shame about the lack of thrills.
If there’s a ‘hi gear’ I’m missing someone let me know!

Outrun Shmoutrun

A brilliant game. If you like Outrun and other 80’s arcade racers, get this - it’s as simple as that! The best 99p you’ll spend.

great game

highly recommended pixel racing

Please Add Save feature!

I love this game. It’s addictive. The music, graphics, control via the iPad etc is utterly amazing as is the bonuses and money collecting etc. But I can’t get past the desert level even with less traffic it’s massively hard. I’d love to see a save type feature so I can continue my progress!
