| EVERYBODY’S TALKING ABOUT RUNNER MAKER |
| For the very first time, Choice Provisions is also including an official level editor with the game: RUNNER MAKER – which allows players to create and share ever more challenging custom levels with BIT.TRIP fans all over the world. RUNNER MAKER makes it dead easy to fine-tune obstacles and shape beat-driven gameplay to deliver countless, stunningly varied BIT.TRIP RERUNNER levels. In fact, almost every single level in the shipped game was built with RUNNER MAKER! Whether players enjoy the pre-designed levels in BIT.TRIP RERUNNER or venture into user-generated content, the combination of rhythmic gameplay, retro-inspired visuals, and an infectious chiptune soundtrack result in a memorable, hard-to-put-down gaming experience. Developed with the help of Brazilian outfit Gamecraft Studios, BIT.TRIP RERUNNER skillfully tests players’ reflexes and rewards their creativity – including tasteful nods to BIT.TRIP greats. |

| DEVELOPER QUOTE |
| “BIT.TRIP RERUNNER initially began as a three-month experiment aimed at familiarizing our studio with the Unreal engine. However, as development unfolded, our passion for the project grew out of control – compelling us to expand it with even more features. The driving force behind the BIT.TRIP RERUNNER project was twofold: listening to our dedicated fans, and acknowledging our own infatuation with the original game’s format. Fans yearned for a return to the authentic RUNNER experience – and the persistent demand for a level editor from the community further cemented our plan to deliver everything the community wanted and more.” – Mike Roush (Co-Founder, Choice Provisions) |
