Skeleton King is more than a 99 cent Steam video game: It is an experience that will haunt you until the day you die. With the inclusion of a leaderboard, it can be safely concluded that this game will have a robust competitive atmosphere. After all, the game is not called Skeleton KingS; there can only be one. You may collect thousands, perhaps even millions of crowns as you accrue hours in this game, but at the end of the day, only the absolute best may wear one. Running down a hallway as obnoxious hard rock blares through your computer speaker, you must collect crowns while avoiding hostile undead in order to achieve your dream. My wife left me, my dogs are starving, rent is three months overdue. All seems to be lost, but I press on anyway. That's all that matters. No game in the world, no THING in existence, has made me feel more alive than Skeleton King. One day, I will be the Skeleton King, a god among mortals. I will ascend to the very echelons of euphoria, never to return. And when I reach this pinnacle of human existence, I shall leave you all with a tender kiss on the lips. You deserve nothing less.
Fun game. I initially started playing this to beat my friend, but i beat the whole leaderboard. I have become the true skeleton king.
Bought this game to push the guy at the bottom of the leaderboard down a notch. Now we are working on the Skeleton King meta. Can't wait for the summer content update. New hats, weapons, and enemies perchance? It would be silly and cute if I one day earned the title of Skeleton King. Love you, Sincerely, Big Ape
Quando vi o jogo pela primeira vez não estava esperando muito, mas logo que iniciei o jogo me deparei com um jogo de infinity run incrível!! De cara a trilha sonora me deixou muito hypado para continuar evoluindo no jogo. Além disso, tive a oportunidade de dialogar com membros da comunidade e pude conversas com muitas pessoas muito agradáveis. inclusive com o desenvolvedor, que é um cara muito gente fina.
Skeleton King is a cheap, simple game. A gag game that my friend Mason notified me and a few others about only upon looking for "funny skeleton" games. It is only $1, so of course the expectation is low. As of today (June 30th, 2022), the enemy count reigns in at around three varying types (one of which acts more as an obstacle), one type of obstacle, three different values of currency collectibles, and no powerups. It is a barebones runner that has very little staying power in terms of gimmicks and replayabillity. Until you break the game. Movement stuttering, wall/podium hugging, double inputs. The very nature of this game being coded the way it is makes it infinitely more fun than before. That is how I got the mentality. If I devoted enough of my free time, I could secure #1. And, with 4 hours and 13 minutes and some lengthy SimpleFlips videos, I topped the leaderboard. This game should not have taken half the amount of time I put into it, at least in this state. But it did. And for that, I have to recommend it. It it barebones, and simple, but was a good laugh between a few friends that resulted in something greater. Shoutouts to a few people: [i]Big Monky #skeletonkingsweep[/i] for being the original record breaker of the crew (he fell out of the stairs at some point passed 8.8K or so) [i]Los Bees[/i] for finding this game (dumpass) [i]All the Skeletong King Gamers: Big Monky, Blakeypoo, Los Bees, Ahhh, and Marclofi[/i] for help in finding mechanics or igniting passion in this game Whoever made the soundtrack cuz that ♥♥♥♥'s bumpin In short: buy the game, play alongside some buds, could use more but is lovely the way it is
this game is frickin really cool I bought it because it looked quite silly, it has a skeleton on it and it was a buck, but upon playing this game on a stream, I got a whole bunch of my friends absolutely HOOKED. This game became their everything and it was a beautiful connection in which was sparked between us and the world of Skeleton King. We have topped the charts and become the Skeleton Kings of our world of running but its now time to rise up and take a stand, make our own skeleton king in our lives today. THIS is my plea, thank you Mr. Skeleton King and God bless.
i am running away from responsibilities as a king
