An easy to learn, hard to master, fun arcade racing game with loads of content! Featured by Apple countless times! The gameplay mixes a one-touch racing mechanic with 2 weapon/defensive buttons. The progression features an in-depth career mode with RPG-like humoristic conversations with parodic characters, an endless mode and a boat crafting editor! ---------------------- One-Touch Racing Mechanic: Touch to accelerate, release to brake. Slow down on a wave to stick to it (bind speed requirement depends on the boat downforce, sometimes you have to slow down more). If you keep the gas pressed, you'll jump off the waves. You can stick to water before the wave begins, but if you re-accelerate on a straight line, you'll un-stick. Releasing the gas while in the air will make you fall faster. Obstacles and Power-Ups: If air drag makes you quicker by staying on water, sometimes it's best to jump. It could be for grabbing a power-up, avoiding an obstacle or a tricky set of waves. Combat: Fighting with opponent brings a whole new dimension to the game. It not only adds action, but also tactical aspects, which quickly becomes a key for victory. For instance, slowing down to get behind an opponent to avoid being hit and let him deplete his bullet on another boat. Additional Tip: - The acceleration button covers the whole right side. You can touch the bottom edge of the screen to avoid covering the action. ------------------ Reviews and Awards - Featured by Apple on numerous occasions! - (4.5/5) Touch Arcade "I'd strongly recommend it to anyone who enjoys side-scrolling arcade games or can appreciate a different angle on the racing genre" - (4.5/5) App Advice "perfect for anyone who enjoys boat racing and fast-paced, frenzied arcade games" - (4/5) 148Apps ''Pixel Boat Rush's unique blend of mechanics make it an excitingly original racing game'' - (4/5) Indie Game Reviewer ''This is a iOS racing game that gets so many things right.

Ayjona Well-Known Member Sep 8, 2009 3,295 21 38 Freelance journalist and writer, amateur musician Stockholm, Sweden #3 Ayjona, Oct 8, 2014 Doesn't look like my kind of game, but with XperimentalZ Games, it doesn't have to be to still be worth money and time PeteOzzy Well-Known Member Oct 30, 2013 4,596 3 0 Norwich, England #4 PeteOzzy, Oct 8, 2014 It's a great, great game - just as you would expect from XperimentalZ. I'm not a huge fun of racing games that try to attain realism; I enjoy those crazy as hell, power-up filled mad ones as this fits in that category perfectly. I can only wholeheartedly recommend this, they put so much work into perfecting it in the beta stage and it shows. I'm sure the rest of the beta crew will chime in soon with their recommendations, I can only apologise for being too tired to string together something meaningful. But keep this on your radar, it really deserves it. coolpepper43 ð® Spam Police ð Aug 31, 2012 4,615 7 38 On the toilet #5 coolpepper43, Oct 8, 2014 Last edited: Oct 8, 2014 Very fun.

Am I the only one excited about this game? I've been waiting for this to release for awhile now. If I'm not mistaken, this game almost was scrapped awhile back. I could be wrong. Anyway, 10.5hrs left.

You had played before? I noticed a small issue on the license test 4, when you bounce back from the water to hit the rock. When testing, I usually tapped repeatedly to re-stick immediately to water, without really thinking about it. This trick can probably used until we fix this.

The good news is that I can't think of another situation where this happens.
