Subway surfers is a 3 lane ios
game. The controls are left right to
change lanes and up and down to
slide under and jump over
obstacles. It has a currency used to
upgrade the power ups and go
further in the game. You can also
buy new characters and costumes
for them.

Point counter Temple run is similar to my concept
because of the obstacles in the way
however temple run is only a one lane
system and involves turning left and
right around the course. This could
also be a possibility for my game as it
would make sense for the teachers to
be chasing the student in school and
the police in the town. I also like the
idea of a power bar and having a
special ability.
AUDIO
The music is constant
through temple run
with power up and
ability noises

Floor is lava is an interesting
game to compare to as this game
relies more on the timing of the
jumps than the other two games
making it simpler but more of a
challenge. It has a lot less too it
than the other two games. The
audio in floor is lava is an
annoying backing song, burning
sound effects and a power up
noise.
