Jetrunner is an intriguing new speedrunning game, termed “Trackmania meets Titanfall.” In this game, players control Nina White as she races against time in hazardous construction zones. Interestingly, notable voice actor Matthew Mercer lends his voice, albeit with a somewhat passable French accent.

The demo suggests a full release that will feature a rich variety of levels, specifically designed for intricate traversals and clever shortcuts, enhancing the speedrunning experience.

This game has a fun mechanic where players shoot targets to advance, blending speed with accuracy, thus creating a unique puzzle that keeps gaming sessions engaging. As players maneuver through Ninah’s challenges, they listen to banter between Nina and Mick Acaster, voiced by Mercer, which adds a delightful touch to the story, even though it’s optional.

However, while gameplay is the primary focus, the visual elements could be improved, as some levels may appear a bit sparse. Nonetheless, if you’ve enjoyed challenging platformers in the past, especially titles like Celeste, Jetrunner has the potential to be a hit as it awaits its official release.
