Gameplay Instructions
Ultra Runner is an infinite runner with shoot and collect perks mechanics.

How to Play?
The play starts a game by choosing a character. Each character has their own perks and special features.
You run forward to score points. You lose health when you get hit by a car. When you lose all of your health, the game ends. While you run, stamina is lost constantly.
You walk slowly without stamina. You can get more stamina by shooting at drones. Destroyed drones drop various Buffs and DeBuffs. Picking this up applies positive or negative effects which are shown by icons next to your character's head.

Basic Controls are shown below. You can Remap them!
(Keyboard & mouse)
'D' to move forward
'Mouse Click' to shoot
'Space' to Jump
'W' and 'A' to switch lanes
'Left ctrl' to lower drone

Destroy drones above and collect buffs or dodge cars below to survive longer and score higher.

 Some characters are overpowered. I wish I had more time to play test and balance the game. With no engine redistributable, only 1 character and less variety of buildings, the packaged game is <150 MB, but I didn't go for that category.
