There’s very little negative to say about Speedrunners. It may be simple, but it has plenty to offer thanks to its addictive gameplay, and its welcome addition of level creation makes for nearly endless replayability. Speedrunners is definitely a must-have game if you want something light-hearted to play with friends, or even make friends with online matches. Three years in beta, DoubleDutch Games have done a good job!
Speedrunners is a multiplayer, party, platforming racing game. Having previously played the Steam release, my views of Speedrunners weren’t the best. When I f
SpeedRunners has officially become a title I will continue to enjoy coming back to for playing with friends and for satisfying my inner speed running dreams. While the single player experience is lackluster in execution and how the bots are controlled leaves much to be desired, the real winner of this title is the multiplayer and the amount of modes to quench any fan of speed running. Its addictive gameplay and unique approach to playing party games offers hours of replayability, all the while remaining fun to play. Go and get your friends, on or offline, and enjoy one of the best multiplayer ...
All told there's a lot of trimmings on offer, but the core game, the competitive platforming, is stronger than ever, and it's still the main reason to pick up the game.

Going up against strangers isn't as personable but everything works as it should and there's potential for a thriving competitive scene to continue growing around the game. Racing against bots is certainly not where Spe...
Overall, SpeedRunners provides the foundation for an excellent party game and is certainly enjoyable with the right crowd. However, the lack of multiple modes and sparse single player content make this package feel like more of a mini-game. With the Switch hosting hundreds of multiplayer games that deliver a similar but fuller experience, like Runbow, it’s hard to recommend this one. If you’re looking for a more robust multiplayer experience, you may want to look elsewhere.
