Run Zeus Run

About this game

About

"Run Zeus Run" is an endless runner with modern mechanics of a platformer, funky music, incremental challenge needing a little bit of strategy and addictive game. Try to get the highest score, the highest amount of coins, the highest monster kills and play until you are the best Zeus in the world!

Features:

• Endless Platformer - Run, Jump, Dodge and Attack with thunderbolts. Keep running and increasing your score, collect coins and kill monsters for more score.
  
• Challenging Gameplay - This is not just an endless runner. this is not just a platformer either. The game needs strategy, patience and focus. With multitudes of game elements like Jump, Double Jump, Holding Jump and Thunder Attacks, you not only need to keep running on the platform but dodge different kinds of monsters too. Oh, and the game speeds up as you play. How far can you run with the progressive speed change?
  
• Leaderboards - You cannot call yourself the best unless you are on top of the Leaderboards. Your high score is instantly updated on the Steam Leaderboards where you can check your score and rank and compare it with other players.
  
• Coin Patterns - Even though coins are randomly generated on platforms, we have put time and effort to create some amazing coin patterns and designs. We will even allow our players to submit new coin patterns and add them to the game each week/month. How about sending a message to your special someone through the coins?
  
• Multiple Music Tracks - Background Music that keeps changing every time you play. Different types of music tracks for everyone, try to go through the end, where there is no more darkness.
  
• Achievements - There are 150+ quality achievements of different types to be unlocked, from Greek Letters and Numerals to specially hand crafted icons, emoticons and even emojis, all of which can be used on your Steam profile. Unlike other achievement hunter games, unlocking all the achievements won't be that easy due to various scenarios and community challenges set as conditions to unlock them.

  Should we do a remake for this game ?

  When I made this game in 2017, it was both a fangame project (as a Dota 2 player) and my first attempt at game development. Never did I thought the game would garner even 50 players, let alone 1000 in one month of release itself, which was a surprise seeing people enjoy the game for what it was.But 8 years later, today, I see there are more than 100,000 players, unbelievable.And as such, I wanted to know if there is still some interest in the game, and if you folks would like to get a more modern remake of the game, a complete overhaul. The gameplay and mechanics would stay the same, but a complete overhaul and redo of the characters and graphics in 2.5d/3d.Let me know what you all think, and if there are any ideas or feedback you want to put forward.

  (Temporary) Patch for Auto-Unlocking Bugged Achievements

Once you update the game and play it a few seconds/minute, it will automatically unlocked the much reported bugged Achievements (Monster Hunter, Coin Collector, King of Olympus and God of Olympus). This is a temporary patch available ONLY TILL THIS WEEKEND (Sunday, 18th Feb 2018) to automatically unlock the achievements for you. Starting next week, we are expecting to ship our new version of the Game (which will host various Dota 2 mini-fangames) and as such, the achievements will be completely revamped to match the new game system (conditions and icons). We will release a second game-mode update (another major change) after 2-3 weeks again. Currently, we are working on these 2 kinds of game modes: 1. Arcade Platformer You play as dota 2 heroes and have to dodge falling objects and keep climbing on them while surviving (think of tetris except that you need to climb on tetris blocks and keep surviving from hitting ground). Currently single player, with plans to add multiplayer mode to allow player interactions (jumping on/off each other or pushing each other away to make them hit falling objects and die) 2. Shooting-Survival Featuring Sniper and then expanding to a few more ranged heroes, you need to surive hordes of meele heroes by shooting/killing them (think of top-down zombie shooter, except ours in 3rd person or angular camera). Again, single player fist and with enough interest multiplayer. We will be able to provide some content updates and in-development progress in coming days to seek more feedback. If we get enoug...

  We are back

  Run Zeus Run is back on Steam Store, is FreeToPlay and will be revamped into a totally better game in upcoming weeks. The game was taken down Steam Store due to Dota 2 copyright, but we were able to sort it out with Valve and even got permission to create and improve it as a Fan Game. As such, the game is now FreeToPlay and we will also be completely changing the game into something better, for which we are even open to feedback and suggestions. Currently, we are planning to change the game's core concept to that of a Survival Platformer where you need to dodge obstacles falling on a platform and survive. We also have plans to add coop and vs multiplayer to the same. The original concept of Endless Platform Runner will still be available as a mini-game within the new change.
