Navigation

Use arrow keys or wasd to control the player, or use your controller.

Menu

To get to the menu while playing, press ESC.



Hats

Use left Alt-key to enable hats, use x to choose another hat (or use the mouse).



Mutant-hats: after enabling hats, you can enable MutantHats by pressing the M's under the Hat picture (or press M to enable both M's)



Music

Choose music styles with the mouse, or use keys 1,2,3,4.

All music is created and performed by Proud Camel Games own Njal Frode Lie.



In-game picture gallery

Press the N-key (or use the mouse and press the 'N'), to enable the in-game picture gallery, with pictures from the Notodden area, photographed by ProudCamelGames own Siri Camilla Torset.

After crashing, to start without having to use the mouse, press the space bar.



Quality settings

The default quality level is 4.

6 is the highest.

If the game runs smoothly on the default setting, it might also run smoothly on a better quality setting.

Choose quality menu from settings, and 'more'.

If the game doesn't run smoothly, you can select a lower quality level from the menu.



Can be played on older machines in lower resolution and quality, for high quality in high resolution we recommend a modern gamer graphics card, and a modern CPU.



Other

The first 600 meters are the same each time, but after that it goes faster and faster, obstacles are never in the same places and you have to really sharpen your reflexes not to crash.



Notodden has one of Northern Europe's longest timber flumes, 4193 meters long - which now has UNESCO World Heritage status - Woot-Woot!



This deserves a game, we thought, so we made it!

Anyone who has grown up in our small industrial town has a relationship with this log flume, - either that one remembers when it was used for timber freight, or has walked or run all of the 4193 meters up and down, rode, skated or skateboarded - totally illegal, of course - after the operation was closed down. Industrial Rock!



In LogDriveRunner you can run as fast as the wind or lightning in the timber flume - in lifelike and organic, but also surreal surroundings - legally! The game starts with quietly hypnotic guitar music and is becoming more hectic, the more meters you put behind you. If you crash, you need to restart, - here there are no floating coins that allow you to start from where you crashed - no possibility to buy further progress, you need skills!
