Hey all you retro gaming fans!

"Slow and steady wins the race?" That's for chumps! For this turtle, it's all about pure speed and sweet spin jumps! This is an online version of our hit 8-Bit Xbox Live Indie Game, Hurdle Turtle! The object is simple.. survive this brutal hurdle course as long as you can while Hurdle Turtle goes as fast as hit little legs can carry him!

See if you can make it onto the global leaderboards, as well as earn all of the medals!

Controls:

Arrow keys .. Move around
Spacebar .. Jump
Enter .. Pause game

You can find the Xbox version (which contains additional difficulty settings, levels and multiplayer!) here:

- Also.. how the heck did someone get 521m? Honestly, are you some sort of robot sent back from the future to destroy us all with your mad hurdling skillz?

Nice.

You did a good job with making the game feel "retro". It's not a bad game, kinda fun, definitely something I'd play on the NES or something. The overall gameplay increases with progress, and becomes more and more entertaining. Also, the music is fucking CATCHY.

Too hard!

But I do like it. It's a fun little game. I doubt I will ever get 300m though.

Slow, But Steady

This simple game is made by it's great soundtrack that keeps this easy game intense. The only con was the extremely slow start-up, which will turn a lot of people off.

I myself earned 483m, now I just need to know the last secret medal.
