A speed demon who loves nothing more than to race. One morning, he and his partner in crime, Ollie the Armadillo, have a rude awakening when an Unidentified Flying Object plows through their tree. Next thing they know, weird alien tech is spreading all over their canyon home. Will Riley be fast enough to stop this other worldly menace?
- Riley Jumping.gif (5.96 KiB) Viewed 16753 times
Being a roadrunner, Riley doesn't fly, but if he builds up enough speed, he can flap mid jump to gain some extra height.
This helps him reach heights others could only dream about.
- Riley Drill Dash.gif (3.89 KiB) Viewed 16753 times
And when something gets in Riley's way that he can't soar over, he breaks out his drill dash, using his flight, speed, and sharp beak to spin through obstacles on ground or in air!
- Ollie the armadillo Running.gif (8.73 KiB) Viewed 16753 times
A little more cautious than his partner, Ollie is the more levelheaded of the pair, but he knows he can't talk Riley down from an adventure (or a race for that matter.) He might not be as fast as Riley, or have Riley's verticality, but he has ways of making up for that. But will it be enough to turns things back to normal?
- Ollie the armadillo Rolling.gif (4.29 KiB) Viewed 16753 times
Ollie can use his natural ability to roll up into a ball to gain speed down hills and slopes. He can also use his sturdier body to roll through enemies and obstacles Riley would need to drill through.
- Ollie the armadillo Bouncing.gif (3.11 KiB) Viewed 16753 times
To get some extra verticality, or crush obstacles beneath him, Ollie can slam himself against the ground and bounce back even higher. Though he can't reach the same heights Riley can, he can still get around pretty well.
Riley And Ollie Are Pretty Formidable Alone, but what happens when they work together?
Expect a partner system similar to a familiar Kong's return, or maybe a chameleon and a bat.

This mysterious group seems to be spreading far and fast, but why are they here? And what exactly are their plans? They're leaving their strange machines all over the canyon and seem to be experimenting on local animals, but I hear their experiments elsewhere are even stranger...
Gameplay
Riley the Roadrunner is a momentum based platform inspired by games old and new. But this is no "press right to win" game. Use Riley and Ollie's unique skills to find different paths that reveal faster routes. I'm still working on the overall production, but goals right now are:
- Faster you go, the larger your currency multiplier
- Cosmetic shop where you can alter your character's colors
- Secret routes requiring speed and familiarity
- Bosses and Mini Bosses that aren't a pain in the butt
To play, download the zip file, unzip it, and select the Build file, and then select Riley The Roadrunner
