### 2/5 — Super weird slider

*2026-03-29, version 1.6*

The main thing I don’t like about this game is how the movement control is a slider. I’m not sure what an alternative would be but the slider makes the movement feel weird.

### 3/5 — Friends

*2025-12-11*

Add friend invites and I can’t play multiplayer either because nobody loads in I’ve been playing against bots for too long

### 3/5 — Could yall please fix the controller support

*2025-07-29, version 1.6*

I’m playing the game on a backbone controller and the only button that’s working is the joystick

### 4/5 — Friends invite

*2025-07-09, version 1.6*

When’s the update😭

### 4/5 — To Developer

*2025-01-19, version 1.6*

Why is there a slide button to move left and right? What sense does that make? I get stuck going the wrong way because I didn’t fully slide the button left or right. That’s dumb. I can only go left or right, just put a move left button and a move right button. I’m losing because of this 😭

### 3/5 — The best game ever

*2024-12-30, version 1.6*

I play this game on my ps4 and 5 but honestly it’s better on my phone!

### 4/5 — アップデートまだ？

*2024-11-05*

フレンド対戦出来ないんですけどまだアップデート来ないんでしょうかあれから数年経ってますけどそれともサ終したんですか？

### 3/5 — 面白いは面白いんだけどさ

*2024-09-03*

操作ムズすぎる
壁登るのも全然できない
あとストーリー、easyでやってんのに普通に相手強い

### 5/5 — Speed runners

*2024-08-24, version 1.6*

Amazing experience

### 4/5 — Power up

*2024-07-07, version 1.6*

I think the game needs a power up that will make all players go behind you

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-07-04, version 1.6*

I relly wish I could play with my friends…

### 5/5 — NEED UPDATE

*2024-05-06, version 1.6*

Amazing game must try

### 5/5 — Nice

*2024-04-22, version 1.6*

I played this game on my PlayStation

### 4/5 — Add controller support

*2024-03-22, version 1.6*

I really love this game. Could you please add controller support? That’s all this game needs.

### 4/5 — Love it, but could use an update…

*2024-03-16, version 1.6*

I played it a lot as a kid and thought why not play it now. I did and realized nothing really changed. Still same battle pass, still no update where you can invite your friends, and no way to earn coins since there’s actually nobody to vs but the bots. Still a fun game if you ask me. But definitely needs a huge update soon.

### 3/5 — Add controller support!!!

*2024-03-06, version 1.6*

Controller support would be nice

### 5/5 — Schwer aber macht sehr viel Spaß und unterhält

*2024-03-02*

Habe es früher auf steam gespielt mit Freunden wird waren immer high und es war sehr lustig wer gewinnt zu spielen oft verloren ^^

### 3/5 — Nice aber nicht fehlerfrei

*2024-02-08*

Sehr cooles Spiel das auch Spaß macht. 
Habe es mir wieder runtergeladen nach 3 Jahren 
Der online Modus funktioniert immernoch nicht und mit Freunden zumindest lässt sich auch nicht spielen.. kein Fortschritt, sehr sehr schade

### 5/5 — Love

*2024-01-22, version 1.6*

SOO MUCH FUN! I love speedrunner, just hope they update it soon so I can invite friends! Plz update soon!!

The game would be really fun if the camera actually followed your character.

### 1/5 — No friend invites

*2022-10-13, version 1.6*

This game is only fun with friends. That doesn’t work. Yay. Last update 3 yrs ago? So yeah that’s not changing is it. I love this game with friends. It’s really damn fun. But like really? If they stopped making the game because it wasn’t doing well, it’s probably cuz you didn’t let friends play together.

### 1/5 — FIX MULIPLAYER

*2022-09-24, version 1.6*

I’m bandwagoning this game until i can play with friends again.

### 5/5 — Great Game, update pls :’(

*2026-07-28, version 1.6*

Love this game, wish ppl would play it more and that it didn’t get cut. Can’t play with friends online unfortunately but it’s fun beating the unfair bots every game anyways.

*2026-03-11*

Please update the app and bring “Invite friends” option because it’s not fun without them . I love the game so much that I want to play it with my friends . DO SOMETHING!!!

### 5/5 — amazing game , but could be better.

*2026-02-05, version 1.6*

Pros : A really good game. So much fun , lots of free skins and rewards as you level up
Cons : No friend invites . Quick match and ranked dont work because no one is in the lobby. 
Frequent lags and crashing.

I really hope the developer still putting work and updates for this game. Especially for the friend invites. It is so important because right now i can only play with bots.
