How UNDERRUN plays
UNDERRUN makes navigation and shooting separate inputs. The keyboard moves your character while the mouse directs attacks, so facing an enemy and choosing a route are related but distinct decisions.
Dominic Szablewski created the game for js13kGames. Its compact implementation is part of its development history, not a reason to assume it is a lightweight experience for every graphics device. The visible facility, hostile encounters and lighting form an action game rather than a terminal interface, even though the opening sequence uses computer-system text.
Who might enjoy it
For players who like deliberate movement combined with mouse aiming and a dark technological setting. Choose a single-room experiment if learning a larger space is not the appeal.
Controls and device requirements
Use WASD or cursor keys to move and the mouse to shoot, as listed by the game. Click through the deployment sequence before expecting movement to control a character.
The WebGL game was deployed and moved in the desktop Chromium smoke test. A keyboard, mouse and working graphics support are practical requirements; touch-only phones/tablets are not recommended by this review.
