This is a game that is a lot of fun to play. It's got all the elements of a more serious racer, but feels like the developers decided "ya know, this is a lot more fun just the way it is." Police are no threat. No points off for hitting things. No damage either. Just a visceral experience that's easy to play. Great, great, great soundtrack too. Love 'dem rednecks!

If you never play it, you've not really missed much. It's definitely the weakest of Vector Unit's offerings. It's sad too, because they could make this into a prize-winning game (called "Swampboat Race", or something) by losing the market, building up the map & tracks, and having boat upgrades. There is a fantastic game hiding in this ho-hum offering and I hope Vector Unit capitalizes on it, because they know how to build this type of game better than most.

Running the Dev release of Chrome 53 on my Pixel with Android play installed. Love this game on my phone so thought I would give it a try. Game loded up okay and I was able to access all the settings. however hitting play crashed the game. I look forward to getting it working on my Chromebook, maybe further updates to Chrome will fix this.

Now this one took awhile to get a grip on, it's crazy fast, but once I got a handle on it, it's fun! You buy & sell with this one, which is so-so, but when your cruising, that's fun, I mean nuts fun! I wish the runs were longer, but all & all, great fun, all on 36 MB! Well worth the purchase. Weakest game of Vector Units lineup.

Mad dash for cash to bring in the booty. Race through the swamp to trade your goods at the next black market with high graphics and physics. All your efforts produce a high score for you and mate to beat. Give us more maps/locations

I liked the free version so much, I bought this premium version. Not only are the ads gone, but you get an extra 10 units of storage space. What's more, Shine Runner premium supports custom gamepad button mapping, and even has keyboard support. Perfect!

About this app

"Shine Runner would be completely ridiculous if it weren't so amazing."
- Kotaku

"With high quality games such as these, Android's future in gaming looks bright."
- Droid Gamers

"What really makes Shine Runner so much fun is the fully-destructive environment. You can literally destroy anything and everything that gets in your path."
- Android Police

"A high flying, moonshine money making, backwoods bayou bonanza."
- Android Guys

Throw your flat-bottomed fanboat into high gear and slip and slide through the muddy waters of the backwoods bayou. Smash and crash through a destructible world filled with rickety swamp shacks, fishin’ boats, chicken coops, gators, and more. Pack your cargo hold to the brim with moonshine, tobacky, snake oil and other contraband and then sell ‘em to the highest bidder in a rampagin’ 10-day race for profit and glory. Just make sure you keep an eye out for Smokey–the more notorious you get, the more cops will come gunnin’ for you.

From the same team that brought you critically acclaimed jet ski racer Riptide GP™, and the free to play Beach Buggy Blitz™!
