Hey everyone, I’d love to get your feedback on my PC racing game called Rabbit Run. The Kickstarter is up and running at this link if you want to check it out:

I’m still working on the vertical slice demo and want to make it as good as possible for its October 31st release. Here’s some gameplay footage:

This is the premise of the game.

Rabbit Run is a high stakes racing game enhanced with platforming elements, and plays like a hybrid of Mario Kart and Sonic. You assume the role of Alice, a smart but inexperienced marsh rabbit who joins the 111th Rabbit Run tournament.

The tournament is dominated by the forest, desert, and cave rabbits, and it’s up to her to represent her clan. But sightings of mysteriously marked hawks and reports of rabbits vanishing during the tournament have the racers on edge. And it’s up to you to unveil the truth behind these troubling events and win the tournament.


The game consists of 4 major environments split into 5 tracks each, for a total of 20 race tracks. There are multiple events per track, such as winning 1st place, taking down the most enemies, elimination matches and more!

By completing each event, players are able to unlock Platinum Carrots, which can be traded in for special abilities such as double jumping, better grip on turns, and even breaking through objects like boulders and logs. Not to mention there’s also hidden paths to cut down on lap times and earn additional Platinum Carrots!

When turning/jumping, it constantly plays the same animation, and looks kinda bland, will you be adding more animations than the run? Will there be more dynamic/scenic maps, opponents, or sound? Also, the obstacles do not seem to be too challenging, just kinda there to avoid, however I haven’t played the game so I can’t really have too strong of an opinion on that aspect. But those just my first impressions from seeing the video you posted.

This looks like a fun little title my son would enjoy.
I can see the potential.
I can also see the rabbits butt the entire length of the video.
Since this is an imaginary adventure world - maybe consider clothing that little hare. :slight_smile:

I dont really understand, asking for 150k through ks seems slightly outrageous imo.
Maybe Im just old fashioned - but this looks like a title that could be created for under 10k working on it part time - while the developers supported themselves with a part or full time job, rather than asking someone else to support them while they create this little charming game.

150k is madness. After reading your Kickstarter and seeing the vid, I think that you should be able to create Rabbit Run on a very low budget (not even 10% of what you’re asking for).

I think it looks like a fun casual game and wish you the best.
