Robo Runner is a 2D platform game created in Scratch as part of a game design project. The player controls a robot character that must run, jump, and climb through different platform levels while collecting treasures and avoiding enemies. The main goal of the game is to survive through all levels, collect enough points, and reach the final stage. The game is designed to feel dynamic and interactive, combining simple controls with increasing difficulty and engaging gameplay elements.
The game takes place in a platform-style world where the robot moves across different floors connected by ladders. The player must carefully navigate through obstacles while enemies try to catch the character. The robot can move left and right, jump between platforms, and climb ladders. Gravity is an important part of the gameplay, making jumps realistic and requiring precise timing. As the game progresses, the difficulty increases. Each level introduces faster enemies and more complex platform layouts, making the game more challenging and engaging.
Robo Runner contains three levels:
In Level 1, the player learns basic movement and avoids simple enemies such as a bat and an enemy robot
In Level 2, the game becomes more difficult. A new enemy appears - a mysterious girl character that moves differently and adds more challenge to the gameplay.
In Level 3, the final level introduces the most dangerous enemy - a skeleton that can remove two lives instead of one, making survival much harder.
Each enemy has its own behaviour, movement style, and sound effects, which helps create atmosphere and tension in the game.
The game includes:
- Treasures that increase the player’s score;
- A life system with multiple lives;
- Animated characters and smooth movement;
- Sound effects and background music for different levels;
- Platform and ladder mechanics;
- Increasing difficulty across levels.
All of these elements work together to make the game more engaging and enjoyable.
