Barn Rush — Press Kit

Description

Barn Rush is a top-down time-attack collectathon roguelite set on a pixel-art farm. Gather food, haul what you can carry back to the barn, and deposit it before the round clock runs out. Choose upgrades as you go and see how far your build can carry you.

The challenge is in your route, your return trips, and your upgrade choices—not combat or managing a set of active abilities.

About the developer

Barn Rush is made by Joe, a solo independent developer based in Rochester, New York, publishing as gumballandmoo.

Features

Gather, haul, and deposit food in timed rounds, with limited carrying space shaping each route.
Draft upgrades during the run, building around the choices you are offered.
Face a checkpoint every five rounds, with rivals competing for the food in the field.
Play as farm animals: Sheep, Cow, Pig, and Chicken.
Explore Summer Day, Summer Night, Autumn, and Winter field themes.
