Run, jump, roll – RunBean Galactic launches on Xbox, PlayStation and Switch

There’s nothing new about taking control of a gaming protagonist before running, jumping and rolling your way to victory. But whilst RunBean Galactic uses those usual mechanics, this one is most certainly different to the norm. 

Available to purchase and download right now on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S (optimised for new-gen), PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch, RunBean Galactic is the latest to come from the Eastasiasoft team, as the prolific publishers push the creation of Khud0 to the world. 

It’s cheap too – as you would expect of an Eastasiasoft title – running a mere £4.19 price tag that is immediately discounted at launch for a limited time. 

Open the wallet and jump in and you’ll find some real fun with what RunBean Galactic attempts. See, it places you in the shoes of a little astronaut – the titular RunBean – as they land on a planet full of traps, obstacles and hazards. In fact, this planet is trying to put an end to little RunBean and it’s up to you to help them survive. 

On the face of it, that’s nothing new. Landing on alien planets and attempting to survive is something we’ve done multiple times over the gaming years, with something like Journey to the Savage Planet being one that is front and centre of our minds. But where RunBean Galactic differs is in the visual look, as you skirt the perimeter of the 2D planet, scooting over hazards, jumping and rolling to safety. 

Spikes, platforms and more will pop up on the planet’s surface, as you utilise reflexes to keep safe. With direction changes and bonuses also present, this is one that will keep you on edge throughout. Stay alive and you’ll build your score and RunBean will get to prove themselves as the most powerful of all space travellers. 

It’s a simple premise then with RunBean Galactic, with the following key features in hand…

• Run left or right while circling the planet’s surface in hand-drawn 2D style!
• Jump over spikes and other hazards while touching gold markers for bonuses.
• Survive as long as possible to raise your score!
• Enjoy quick runs with unlimited replay value.
• Challenge online leaderboards!
• Stay on your toes as randomized challenges are never the same twice!

The trailer below will give further insight into what you should expect to find with RunBean Galactic, whilst our upcoming review should cover further bases. 

If you’re sold on this little runner, get over to the digital store of your choosing right now. RunBean Galactic is on the Xbox Store for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, whilst PlaYStation and Switch folk should also find it present. 

Game Description:

Run, jump and roll your way to a new high score as hazards and bonuses pop up all around the planet! Step into the shoes of RunBean, an astronaut who landed on a hazardous planet that tries its best to kill the intruder! Try to delay your inevitable fate by running around the diminutive 2D globe, jumping over spikes, sliding under killer platforms, collecting bonuses and quickly reacting to sudden direction changes! The longer you stay alive, the higher your score will climb and the more envious the next poor space travelers visiting this planet will be.
