![]() ![]() In an event that was long due the hivemind of /v/ blazed through its tough-guy, edgy persona in a sudden, explosive recognition of its own emotional capacity. On the 26th of February, 2010, the face of /v/ was changed forever. This means that dashing, even when no stars are around, is often beneficial. Secondly, at high speeds a dash will often allow you to clip through/past certain obstacles. There are two main facets to this tip: the first is that the end of your dash still has a very counter-intuitive window of 'dashing' even though the animation does not seem to show it. Whilst they're good markers of island transitions, they're useless for points. Consistency is key learn to deal with the increased speed and pressure of the endgame. RUA is a game of three phases it's no good blowing everything on a good run and then fucking up for the other two. If you've never experienced this, you're not playing well enough to be high tier.Ģ) Learn to survive endgame speeds consistently. With good skill (and sometimes a bit of luck) your score meter can grow to obscene sizes, obscuring the screen at times. Going for star chains is the best way to cash in on your time spent alive. Yes, that may mean going for some riskier manouvers, but at high speeds the thing most likely to kill you is bad luck with island transition RNG. ![]() The following simple tips may help guide a new player in the right direction, however.ġ) Chaining Stars is the best way to get that score up. Within the high-tier clique, a player who cannot break the 100k threshold is considered a laughing stock. Whilst a meme game on the surface, RUA's fast paced, high intensity gameplay is an infinitely deep experience that takes countless hours of dedication to master. It’s time to get lost in a world of rainbows.ALLWAYS I WANT TO BE WITH YOU AND MAKE BELIEVE WITH YOU AND LIVE IN HARMONY HARMONY OH LOVE. Adult Swim Games is responsible for some of the most memorable web games out there, and Robot Unicorn Attack is no different. It’s silly, it’s eccentric, and it’s far from the best game in its genre in terms of gameplay – but that doesn’t mean we didn’t fall for its charms. Bonus points to the intentionally low-quality audio used for the song – I can’t put my finger on how, but it somehow made the whole experience feel like a VHS copy of a little girls unicorn movie come to life. Even the thumping of Erasure’s “Always” managed to capture the spirit of a world filled with unicorns. The entire presentation is made of 6-year-old girl win, and we loved every second of it. Every time your unicorn jumps a rainbow forms behind him. Big shiny stars are waiting to be smashed through. Almost as if to say “it’s a robot unicorn, what else do you want?” Purple grass grows on every platform. That’s not to say we’re talking about a graphical powerhouse – if anything the look of the game seems intentionally underwhelming. Seriously – how could anyone not want to play this? Sure the gameplay is lacking, but this game is all about presentation – and the presentation here is rock solid. But at the end of the day Robot Unicorn Attack is less about original gameplay and more about playing as a robot unicorn smashing your way through a fantasy landscape to the sounds of Erasure’s 1994 synth-pop masterpiece Always. Ok, we’ll admit it – the gameplay has less variety and less to offer than similar games on the market. You’ll have three attempts to get as far as you can, with your final score being a total of all three. Robot Unicorn Attack really involves little more than smashing stars and jumping from platform to platform. Speed just doesn’t play a factor here – a strange choice for a game such as this. Unlike Canabalt though, the unicorn’s speed never seems to increase, nor are there objects that can help you slow down. The robot unicorn can cover a lot of ground with his jumps and can even double jump if you press the Z key twice. Jumping is done by pressing Z and dashing, which causes the unicorn the unicorn to turn into a rainbow blur of destruction, is done by pressing X. ![]() Rather than controlling speed or direction, you’ll be in charge of the unicorns jumping and combat abilities. You’ll control a robot unicorn that is constantly running. Robot Unicorn Attack is a two button surivival platform game that, despite its eccentric presentation, seems to be heavily inspired by Canabalt. ![]()
