About River Madness
In River Madness, you navigate a canoe down an endless river while avoiding obstacles like rocks, crocodiles, and whirlpools. The objective is to travel as far as possible without crashing your boat. You control the movement of the canoe by swiping on either side of the screen to steer around hazards. This arcade game is designed for single-player sessions and runs directly in your web browser.
The experience offers a fast-paced challenge that tests your reflexes and timing. It is well-suited for players who enjoy simple, pick-up-and-play arcade games that can be completed in short bursts of a few minutes. Because the controls rely on swiping, the game is fully functional and responsive on mobile devices. The entire project, including the mechanics and visuals, was developed using Claude Code within the Godot 4 engine.
