The most ambitious space shooter RPG of the early 21st century, Ring Runner blends the palm-perspiring action of space combat with the narrative passion of a role-playing game.
Pack a towel and embark on an epic journey across the universal super highways known as the Rings; someone out there must know who or what you are. The voice of Nero, your snarky neuro-HUD, provides guidance and compulsory companionship, but no answers. Dive into The Subrostrum, a world smaller than atoms where Will overpowers the natural forces, and resurface as a Sage capable of rewriting physical laws.
Space is about freedom, and so is Ring Runner. There are 60 customizable hulls that act as unique templates for the over 400 wildly-varied, never-obsolete skills. Level layouts, backgrounds, and AI enemies are all procedurally generated, yielding billions of challenges. Try our various scenarios alone, cooperatively, or competitively through local or online multiplayer.
