Limited Run Games is a premium publisher of physical games focusing on bringing digital releases to life on a number of systems, including the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, retro consoles, and more. Since 2015, Limited Run Games has released over 1000 games, including both niche and indie games, and collaborations with companies like Konami and LucasArts.
Amazon’s Running Diet follows Amazon after the Gotta Protectors’ adventure to vanquish the Demon of Doom. To make Amazon stronger, Princess Lola has given Amazon the heaviest armor in the land and sent her to a forest full of traps. Players will jump, kick, and slide their way through the danger, grabbing hearts and dodging bombs. One false step may change the world forever.
Amazon’s Training Road has been localized as if it were 1989, complete with western-style package art from artist Ayano Koshiro and brand new spritework from designer Makoto Wada. The new version also includes a bonus sound player mode featuring the entire Yuzo Koshiro soundtrack from the brand new Gotta Protectors: Cart of Darkness. Amazon’s Training Road will come with a gorgeous pink cartridge, a full-color instruction booklet, and a Limited Run dust sleeve.
Because the item is currently in manufacturing, artwork is subject to change. Limited Run Games products are not expected to ship until 4-5 months after the preorder window closes.
