 Runbow (Video Game)
comment
Runbow is an Indie, Massive Multiplayer Crossover, 2D Platforming Party game developed by 13AM Games and released on the Nintendo Wii U eShop on August 27th, 2015, with ports on Steam, the Nintendo 3DS, Playstation 4, and Nintendo Switch releasing afterwards. It features original characters Hue and Val, their nemesis, Satura, and a nice plethora of guest characters from other indie games. The main gimmick in the game is that the background color constantly shifts among a set palette and any platform or obstacle that matches that color will effectively blend in and "disappear," allowing the player to pass through the same. It features four main party games and two single player modes, but all modes allow up to a whopping 9 players all at once!Not to be confused with Runbow: A Game of Endless Rainbows and Running for iOS.

Palette Swap: There are only two body types in the game, one is a bulky form (Hue) and the other is slimmer but tall form (Val). Beyond this, all characters essentially play the same.

Game-Breaking Bug
 Runbow (Video Game) / int_33ca811a
comment
Game-Breaking Bug: The Switch port froze up when loading the end credits after clearing Adventure Mode. While it doesn't lock the player out of unlocking Satura (by clearing every other level), but does prevent from earning the level's medals and getting credit for beating the final boss. This was later fixed in a patch. Also, Shovel Knight and Juan are not able to be unlocked in this version, for unknown reasons.

comment
What Does This Button Do?: There is a setting for the "Fun" level in the Options menu but it isn't exactly clear how changing it affects the game. When asked on twitter, the game's Creative Director, Alex Rushdy, answered, "It sets the fun."note Changing the settings to certain levels will unlock both Max and Unity-chan, at least.

One-Hit-Point Wonder: Averted with the player characters as hitting regular enemies will only stun them, though spikes and lasers are still instant death. Played straight when battling against Satura (her, not you).
