Pentagon Rush

Pentagon Rush is a single-player high-speed endless runner that pays homage to a bygone arcade coin-op gaming era. The unique element on display here is the environment: A never-ending, rotatable pentagon tunnel that you navigate via a turbocharged hoverbike! 

Explore a virtual cyberspace world with two stylish retro-futuristic environmental zones. Stay focused on all five lanes at once - rapidly switching between them on the fly with simple, precise controls. Evade tricky traps and skilfully grab tokens in risky manoeuvres as you rack up all the points. Seamlessly pause the action anytime you wish before diving back in for more.   

                                         

Drawing visual and gameplay inspiration from other genres such as rhythm games, puzzle games, and nostalgic arcade racers, Pentagon Rush will make you feel like you’ve jumped into a time machine and discovered a parallel universe. Whether you’re a retro-arcade champ or a cyberpunk thrill seeker - you’ll love its' high-speed, quick-response gameplay.  

Attempt to survive the tunnel as long as possible while both the speed and difficulty gradually creep up on you, applying pressure and additional challenges to overcome. The drum & bass soundtrack and SFX add an extra layer of intensity to the virtual landscape, bringing the experience to a whole other level.

The goal is straightforward, reminiscent of simpler times: Achieve the highest score possible. There’s even a convenient option to reset the high score if others wish to play and achieve a ‘personal best’ of their own… only for you to conquer!

So, the real question is… 
How far will YOU go?
