With Blade Rush I wanted to make a classic arcade-style game with quick runs and tons of replayability, with the classic pick-up and play, easy to learn hard to master gameplay loop, and a ton of extra unlockable content to keep things fresh. I wanted anyone to be able to pick it up and have a good time, without needing to be good at these kinds of games. I hope you enjoy it!
