Introduction
Deranged Rabbits is a platformer for Android by Grove Comp where you play as a rabbit trying to get through a level full of deathtraps as fast as possible and get the carrot at the end (and hopefully a cabbage). Note as always I’m playing the free version with additional levels being part of the full game.
Update: Awkwardly I was once promised a copy of the game by the devs on a service called Desura but the service died before that could happen and Google Play doesn’t allow for free review copies (at time of original writing).
The Review
First impressions was that the music in the game seemed pretty good and the retro art style is something I’ll always appreciate as someone that plays a lot of older games. As for gameplay the controls are simple with only left, right and jump but they feel smooth and easy to use which definitely lessens any frustration with the inevitable deaths you’ll get as its the type of game where all objects mean instant death.
In fact the game expects you to die a lot as the traps (and the land around them) get covered in pixelated blood if you die to them and there is a counter in the lower right corner. That’s not saying speed isn’t a thing though as beating the level within the time limit, which is something that needs near perfect movement and no deaths, nets you a cabbage.
Even during the free levels new obstacles get introduced to keep the players on their toes and from what I played and how many levels there were at the time of writing I’d buy the full version (if I wasn’t poor).
Overall
I’d say it’d definitely be worth buying if you like the sort of fast paced platformers like this, especially if you enjoyed popular indie games like Meat Boy.
