About the game

A rhythm-fueled 3D runner where every level is a musical. Lead a whole crowd through giant falling burgers, donuts and explosions, find hidden paths, take on rapper bosses in beat battles, collect rare characters and unlock new levels! Bon appe'tit!

Original Steam description

A MUSIC-FUELED RUNNING ADVENTURE

Original musical soundtrack in every level: a music you'll still hear after you close the game!

Gather a crowd of all kinds of characters, dodge, jump over giant food (or keep crashing into)! Get at least one group member across the finish line.

Show the singing burgers where they belong!

DODGE GIANT FAST FOOD

WATCH OUT! Burgers, donuts, and cakes are falling on you from the sky! Hop across trains, pick your path, dodge sideways or jump over from above.

Choose your own way to beat the level (just don't play when you're hungry).

BEAT THE GREASIEST BOSSES

Each chapter closes with a boss who is bigger and far louder than anything you've dodged so far. Every boss performs their own song, written and recorded just for them.

Survive the number and the next chapter opens up!

COLLECT THEM ALL

Unlock secret characters (fruits and vegetables), complete missions (runners, coins, secrets) and run through 3 chapters.

15+ special characters are waiting for you on every level (careful, they look delicious).

TEST YOUR MIGHT

Hardcore mode: for those who want a spicy kick. First collect all the coins, find the rare secret, and bring 5 characters to the finish line, and only then take on the challenge!

Can you beat every level in this mode?
