About This Game
- How it's meant to be played in the first place? Imagine you are impatiently waiting for pizza you ordered and need some distraction. This is it !
- Have you ever played old vertically scrolling shoot 'em ups but wanted
more? Then River Rush is a game for you. - It's easy to start playing and easy to get to the next checkpoint (about 15 minutes).
- An improved version of oldschool SHMUP games , like River Raid, 1940, Harrier Attack, Galaga etc.
- Survive by evading or destroying enemies.
- Keep an eye on fuel and avoid terrain that is not river.
- Your weapons for terminating enemies are laser bullets (like form old GI Joe and Transformers cartoons) plus rockets.
- Rockets are fired with delay of 0.4 sec so you have to think ahead when to use them.
- You move with WAD or Arrows. Fire bullets with Space and rockets with N
- It has challenging gameplay, if you don't think ahead you'll get into mayhem from which it won't be easy to get out.
- Enhanced pixel art experience from the 80es.
- 13 types of enemies. Each needing a different approach.
- No need for mouse, just keyboard.
- Local leader board (like on old arcade machines, one per one PC).
- Relive your youth. Or see what dad used to play :)

We all are a bit spoiled by today's games. This one has a healthy level of constant challenge which makes it highly addictive.
i like it, it's a very old style game. At times it's very hard. When I get to the next checkpoint I say it's enough for today. Although I'm always interested what new enemies are beyond. So all in all its a fun game.
It's a good, simple game. I like playing it in short sessions. No more than half-hour. If I play it more I get nervous because some parts are hard.
Simple old style game, but I like it. Catchy. It killed me 15 minute of boredom.:)
Retro in the best way possible!
True old school, gg!
Just like the old times π
This game brings back memories. I remember being alone in my room playing console games on my old bulky Tv. Playing it this game reignited the passion for retro games. Recommend.
Nice game that back me to the childhood :) I enjoyed playing game like this. Only that I didn't figured out, how to continue progress from the checkpoint.
