Save the day in side-scrolling action this #ScanlineSunday with Atomic Runner for Sega Genesis ☢️

Run, jump, and shoot your way through enemy filled screens as Chelnov. Spiders, robots, and every manner of monster may get in your way, but Chelnov cuts them down with a variety of weapons & shot types

Map screen shows chibi Chelnov running to the next stage, as the map depicts enemy monsters he will fight along the way

A mighty serpent slithers out from the wall before firing its fire breath out our jump and shoot man

another monstrosity blocks our hero's path, some sort of robot chicken? either way it is quickly dispatched with a barrage of laser fire

Tina looks down while raising her arm in the air, the light shines in her eyes behind her glasses. the tag on her collar says DOA

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

definitely Over The Hedge: Hammy Hoes Nuts. nothing about this left an impression on me, it was simply there to fill a Phantom Hourglass shaped hole in my heart

i remember when the credits rolled i felt nothing and shut the game off

over the hedge: hammy goes nuts, a game i beat after getting bored and playing it for two days. when completing the final mission i had no indication it was the end of the game and simply stared at the credits in shock before turning it off. an abrupt but appropriate ending for a very forgettable experience
