Sunset Sprinters '98

Relive the glory days of 1998 in this high-speed precision runner. You have no health bar—only a Snack Meter that drains constantly. Smash obstacles, collect aluminum cans for rental money, find CDs for your SpinDisk, and sprint from the Middle School to MegaHits Video before the sun sets.

About the Game

DUDE! THE BELL JUST RANG!

School is OUT and it is officially the weekend! But don’t celebrate yet, man, we have a serious emergency. Everyone is sprinting to MegaHits Video right now. If we don’t get there first to rent A Legend of Time, some other punk is gonna snag the last copy and my weekend is RUINED.

I’m Dante, and I’m totally broke. My Dad won’t give me any cash, so here’s the plan:

TRASH FOR CASH

We gotta grab every aluminum can we see. Seriously. Collect 'em all and shove 'em in the recycling machine at the end of the level.

  • No cans? No cash.

  • No cash? We’re stuck renting a boring drama movie. As if!

RUN OR STARVE

There’s no health bar, okay? It’s just your Snack Meter. If you stop moving, you starve. If you get hit, you lose your lunch. Just keep running and scarfing down pizza and soda to stay alive!

THE TUNES & THE TOYS

I got my SpinDisk player on, but I forgot to grab my CDs! I’m sure I'll find some around town. And if any bullies try to stop us? We blast 'em with Hydro Blasters and Galaxy Marbles.

THE MANDALA EFFECT

Okay, here is where it gets weird. The closer we get to the all-nighter , the more the world starts... glitching. Is this a dream? Is the neighborhood changing? It’s not just about the game anymore, dude. It’s about facing your memories and learning to "let go." It’s gonna be a total trip.

Let’s go! The clock is ticking!
