Race The Sun

The game world is procedurally generated and changes each day.

It is divided into regions with a completely different lay-out each day, but with fixed mutators for each region to build a similar difficulty curve for every session.

To survive the craft needs to dodge moving and falling blocks, pillars, shapes and projectiles that appear in quick succession.

Acceleration is done automatically and it cannot be slowed down.

The craft can be steered left and right endlessly, as there is no border to the game world.

The quickest way to gain speed is by picking up yellow boost items, slightly reversing the sun path for a while.

Green items provide a jump that can be triggered at any moment, allowing the craft to fly.

Purple ones provide a second chance after a crash.

Obstacles are not the only concern, as tunnels, clouds or objects blacking out the sun also need to be avoided as they deplete the available energy.

The game is over when there is no more sunlight or after a crash.

Along the way blue tris can be collected, triangles that add up to a score multiplier.

When bumping into an obstacle, not causing a complete collision, some speed is lost and the multiplier is reset.

The gameplay is fast-paced and requires good reflexes in the later regions.

By steering in a certain direction and quickly switching, a barrel roll can be performed.

The game offers different objectives that can be completed over multiple sessions, such as achieving a certain amount of air time, clearing a region without a single collision, collecting a number of tris, achieving a certain score etc.

This allows the craft to level up with a cap at 25.

With almost every level some new options become available, such as decals for the ship or attachments.

The latter include a magnet

No market sales have been tracked yet for Race The Sun, which could mean it rarely changes hands or that Gamevaro simply hasn't recorded a sale for it yet.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. These are tracked as separate market values because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
