Super Candy Rush

*Possible Epilepsy Warning*

Game:

Eat candy, gain speed, and outrun your parents (and extended family) who are trying to get you off the field!

Avoid the football players, footballs, and coaches on your pursuit of candy and happiness!

Controls:

Move the mouse. That is all.

Criteria:

Endless Runner

Constantly moving through an endless stage.

Reason: Your character is constantly running endlessly. (Until stopped.)

Happy

Enjoying, showing, or marked by pleasure, satisfaction, or joy.

Reason: Bright colors, light tone, non-violence, and candy convey a theme of happiness.

Hyperactive

Having behavior characterized by overactivity.

Reason: The sugar rush increases character movement (both in real life and the game) and at higher speeds a spasm of bright colors adds to the presentation. Game requires quick thinking and quick movements to succeed.

Chiptune

8-bit music style of synthesized electronic music made using the sound chips in vintage arcade machines, computers and video game consoles.

Reason: Music has chunky retro themes using 8-bit instruments.
