You wanna be a space racer? The one who beats 'em all? Hm. You're not convincing me at all. Not everyone has what it takes! Maybe, you should just go back home and save yourself the disappointment...

Well, obviously you're still here. So just get in that odd box and then we'll shoot you to the moon! But don't say I didn't warn you! This is your last chance to get out of here in one piece! This high-speed shit is absolutely addictive. Okay, I told you...

I hope you had some sperm frozen. The strong magnets are supposed to make impotent.... Hehehe!

And now show me what you've got!

---=== Controls ===----

Key-Mappings:

  • W / UP / SPACE = Magnet Inversion*
  • A / LEFT = Move Left
  • D / RIGHT = Move right
  • X / ESC = Return to Main Menu

Note: Clicking somewhere outside the games view can cause the game not to react to the keyboard. 

*this inverts the magnet that keeps you at the track, so it's pushing you away. The steering then automatically rolls you by 180 degrees and then the magnet is activated again. The HUD has two circles with sensor information. The outermost is the current data where the vehicle is at the moment, while the innermost is an estimation of the vehicles landing position after a magnet inversion jump.

---=== Goal / End of Game ===----

There is no final end of the Game at the moment. But, try to pass 3 rounds of that level, while the speed increases. A score of 3000 should be doable. Maybe you can also make it into the High Scores?!

Note: We might remove any High Score entries that are insulting or the like.

I like the music and the visual details! My high score is 1141 and one more time: great music.

I'm glad you like the game. Have just forwarded your message to EIGHTECS! Have a nice day and don't forget to come back for another round of speed racing! 😉 -- Good to hear, we got the visuals at a good level now. 😃

I'm glad you like it. Don't know Stun Runner, yet. Is it available on Itch.io?

no, its an old game. was an arcade cab and on some systems.

its great. worth looking up

Awesome! Just watched a Youtube video of it. Those tubes are really kind of similar, while they also switch seamlessly to that more typical flat racing game tracks. AND, that just gave me an idea for how I can add collectable items to the game without totally changing the rendering. Was already pondering how to solve this... VERY helpful!
