CD-RUN
I was gifted this game by the dev after we play-tested it as co-workers. Another made the chiptune OST and they both deserve praise for the work.
CD-Run is a side scrolling race against your friends and the obstacles the stage throws at you, with multiple mode changes as it goes on. Fast Forward, Repeat, Pause etc.. all shuffle to mix up what’s happening and make you pay attention all the time. When you add in other players all trying to survive as well, it’s total chaos, and some of the best laughs I’ve had with my friends were because of this game.

This is an endless side-scrolling platformer game where you play as a running and jumping square. Think SMB games in multiplayer mode, but you have to run in one direction, and you can’t pick up your friends to toss them off the edges. It’s a fantastic way to burn some time with friends, and simple enough to put down after a couple of runs if needed, though it’s hard to put down when feelings of aggressive competitiveness continually builds. What to expect when playing with friends: so.much.laughter, shenanigans, some comraderie (if you’re playing distance mode), countless expletives, and name-calling.

Cube Racer 2
Race
This is not just a racing game, this is pure chaos from the starting line to the finish line. Dodge as much deadly spikes as possible, while using that sneaky portal to skip the hardest part and leave your friends behind in all that mess. While you’re at it, honk at them to assert dominance.
Build
After you won the first round, build as much obstacles as you can. Make it difficult, build traps, spikes to smash all other cubes. But if you’re really evil, build some secret path to get past that deadly stuff. Set some walls, portals and canons to boost yourself even more.
Rage
Now watch your friends struggling to get past the mess you built, honk at them while you jump past them. Take care for the obstacles they might have built, and race to ultimate victory.
Cloudbuilt
This game is absolutely stellar. I doubt I will play anything better this year, or perhaps even in years to come.
First and foremost, this game grants the player absolute control over the character. The movement is fast and responsive, and the more you learn about the game, the better you can maneuver, to the point where you can do things you never would have thought possible at first. This sense of control is absolutely wonderful because I can apply both my reflexes and timing as well as my puzzle-solving skills to the level in front of me. The level design features branching paths that allow you to tackle the level many different ways, and give the player a sense of exploration. Will you go the easier and slower path, take more difficult shortcut, or will you look for the perfect jump to create your OWN shortcut? The game also allows you to place your own checkpoints, and unlike They Bleed Pixels, they actually mean it, meaning that you get to tackle the level before you on your own terms without compromising the difficulty.

So close…so very very close. This would have been a GOTY contender for me but it slips and wobbles
hard
I’ll start with the good: Cloudbuilt is basically Sonic Generations. Remember boosting to beat your time and precision, quick twitch platforming within a level that has multiple pathways? It’s here. Maybe the budget isn’t, but the excitement and speed definitely is. As is the creativity, only difference here is levels have more vertical movement and therefore aren’t as fast, but the idea is the same.
