Decent Sequel. But doesn't have the same flow as 3.

The fourth in its series. Flood Runner 4 is bigger and better than ever before. Run jump and glide, while avoiding obstacles.
There is an auto upgrade feature. The more you play the more you unlock and the more things you can do.
There are 30 levels of upgrading all of which is automated. The more experience you earn the more levels you will unlock. You will unlock dragons, panthers and more.
**Game Updated: 4 Aug 2012
Controls default to Keyboard now.
The scuba gear works underwater with a mouse. Character follows mouse cursor and exits underwater.
The combo keys that were being hidden was from the plants. The keys combos now appear over bugs and land.
**Game Update: 6 Aug 2012
In-game lag should be reduced. Key Combos are fixed for the plant.
*If you still lag, you can change quality from the Title Screen.
Lag seems to be happening mostly with the Newgrounds version. Players in Kongregate and other sites don't have so many lag complaints. We are looking into it.
doesn't have the same magic as fr 3, fighting system is way too hard and specific.
i like dis
so fun
This looks like a bigger version of Flood Runner 3 made out of notion that if one made it bigger, it would be just as more awesome. It actually turned out monotonous and boring. And what is even more disappionting, you cannot rely on your gaming skills now as there are now things that strike you just as you pass by. The controls are now sensibly less responsive, which adds to the odds of landing on something that hurts. And last but not the least, the achievements have become pointless. If in FR3 one really had to survive a long run in order to get something to gold, now it boiled down to just replaying the games until infinity. You don't expect anybody to kill 800 similar monsters in one run, do you? Or kill 40 similar giant mosters, although we all know that to kill five in one run was a serious achievement in FR3? By the way, these figures are thresholds for silver, not gold. To summarize, this game is way too big and dull. Whatever, nobody will really read this review 5 years down.
