Hey y'all - This is the early release of Hillbilly Run, and I'm very excited to publish this game. This is the absolute first thing I've ever developed. It's still in its early stages, but there's already a bunch of fun packed in. This version is all about seeing who jumps in, what y'all think, and where we can take it next. Right now you'll find 3 free playable levels, NO ADS EVER, core gameplay, and a few moments that will hopefully make you and your friends laugh out loud. I've got a lot of ideas for what's coming - more levels, features, easter eggs, and a few other surprises I'm cooking up - but I want to build it with the folks who are actually playing it. So if you're having fun, drop a rating or shoot over some feedback. I read everything, and it really helps. Thanks for checking it out - and stay tuned, because I'm just getting this thing started. -Scott
