Bolt Run

BOLT RUN: Scrap Sprint
Every gate is a decision. Every decision is math.
You're a tiny reactor sprinting down a neon lane with a pile of bolts. Each row gives you two gates. One is a +, one is a -, and sometimes you must choose between a safe +20 and a risky x2. Pick well and your bolts snowball. Pick badly and you're out of bolts.
Features
- Endless procedural stages. The run never ends, and every stage is a little faster, tighter and meaner. Stage 7 is always the same stage 7, so you can chase it.
- Perfect hits and FEVER. Hit a gate dead-center for double rewards. Chain a streak of 5 and the world ignites: 2x score, magenta aura, speed lines.
- Splitter cubes. Dodge the cubes, and watch the cracked ones split in two mid-flight. In FEVER you smash them instead.
- Pickups. Grab a Shield to block a hit, Slow-Mo to bend time, or a Magnet to pull everything in. Collect coins for bolts and score.
- Greed pairs. Both gates look good, but only one is worth the risk.
- 1-3 stars per stage, a best score and a best stage to beat.
- Fully synthesized audio. Every sound and the ambient music are generated live. There are no audio files.
Controls
- Phone: drag your finger to steer.
- Desktop: drag with the mouse, or use the left and right arrow keys.
Tips
- Standing exactly in the middle of a gate gives a PERFECT.
- A bad gate breaks your streak. A shield protects it.
- Save your Shield for the cubes and the red gates you can't dodge.
Best played in portrait. Your progress and best score are saved automatically.
