Space Rush

A fast-paced cosmic runner that challenges players to dash across lunar landscapes while collecting stars before the rocket takes off. This game was very fun overall! The vibrant low-poly visuals and simple yet addictive gameplay create an engaging experience as you race against the countdown timer. We did encounter a few minor bugs during our playthrough - our pilot avatar was stuck in a 'Loading...' state the whole time, and we didn't seem to receive our star points, possibly because we played as a guest. Despite these small issues that are likely to be ironed out in future updates, Space Rush delivers an entertaining cosmic adventure with its straightforward controls and satisfying star-collecting mechanics. The boost feature adds a nice strategic element as you time your speed bursts to maximize your score before the rocket launches.
