What is Tap Runner Escape?

Tap Runner Escape is our second foray into mobile game apps, which we then picked Endless Runners as a genre to carve out a niche. Our focus was to make the game unique through simple yet emotion driven graphics and easy to understand controls that kids and senior citizens could play (single taps for ease of control). In Tap Runner Escape, the player awakes in a crumbling world where malicious blocks of death fall from the sky and desolates the very land itself, leaving only one option: Escape. We wanted to create a game that had a very simple game mechanic at its core that is simple to pick up, hence the single tapping in terms of controls. We thought of a four core points when we made Tap Runner Escape:

(1) We made it simple to pick up and play Every game needs to enlighten players on how to play them. For every second we train a user how to play, we lose another user (especially casual gamers!). With a just a single and simple core game mechanic, we can hand the game to anyone on the street and they could play it in seconds.

(2) Challenging one’s limits (or high score) Tap Runner Escape is simple to pick up, yet hard to master. We made the game hard, catching players by surprise as they see their avatar die a bloody death within seconds of playing. We aim to ensnare the player with a challenging game that keeps them on their toes, make them grind their teeth when they fail and rage when they lose focus at the very last second. But you want to do better than last time, don’t you?

(3) Simplicity is best (UI-wise) There’s never more than 3 buttons to press at any point of Tap Runner Escape. We keep things simple so player can actually focus on playing the game rather than getting confused by numerous options.

(4) It’s all about skill (No In App Purchases) We want a free game for users to play without limit and without restraint. The market is oversaturated with IAP offering to power up your characters for money. We do not want players to be able to ‘buy’ progression, when you die in Tap Runner Escape, you know it’s your own fault, which applies to everyone else in the playing field without exception. It’s your own skill that matters.
