Uphill Rush is a 2008 adventure and racing game made by Spil Games, it was released for Adobe Flash on Agame.com and various websites.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) It was one of the first games to feature random tracks each level, which is technically amazing for the time. Especially for a Flash game from 2008.
 * 2) It features four worlds with different vehicles. This is pretty neat, which means each world has a different vehicle. And on top of that, in the fifth world, you have all 4 vehicles from Worlds 1-4, which is a novel idea.
 * 3) It features time attack or race battle, you can play either alone or against a CPU.
 * 4) *The first world, you ride on bike with high top-speed action.
 * 5) *The second world, you ride on a skateboard to do perfect jumps and stunts.
 * 6) *The third world, you ride on quad bike to drive fast on the sand.
 * 7) *The fourth world, you ride on a monster trucks that drive on muddy dirt and heavy things.
 * 8) Due to the randomized tracks and the screen crunch, it features a minimap that helps the player what lies ahead. This is really helpful, especially if you can't see what's coming off-screen
 * 9) If you do a backflip, the turbo meter fills and after filling the turbo meter, you press Z to active the turbo and fly across the whole map. This can be helpful to win race battles against the CPU, and much easier.
 * 10) Great and memorable soundtrack that would want you to refuse to forget about it. You would even want to hear it for long, especially the theme from the first world in the game.
 * 11) Decent graphics for 2008 standards.
 * 12) Great level design of the tracks. It can be also memorable if you would play the exact same level over and over again.
 * 13) The vehicles have a good momentum when driving fast.
 * 14) The levels changes when selecting the difficulty, from easy to hard to pass and survive, which confronts fake difficulty.
 * 15) While the AI is scripted between random parts of the tracks, the AI is amazing and helps the player how to pass difficult parts of the game.
 * 16) The backgrounds are lovely beautiful, they look like was made on canvas painting.
 * 17) Great and fluent controls for a 2008 Flash game.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Due the game's speedy nature, the physics are very buggy. You can clip through the ground easily or hitting the ground too hard, the vehicle with flip over or instantly die, also this was a problem in the later games.
 * 2) The quad bike are incredibely heavy to control in the air, the monster truck is even worse.
 * 3) Some parts of the tracks are very hard to pass, because of the heavy vehicles.
 * 4) Collecting stars are useless, they only give extra points when collecting all of them in the tracks.
 * 5) *However, the stars never appeared anymore in later games.
