Our take on Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom
The movement system gives the game a distinct platforming constraint: without a jump button, reaching elevated spots depends on chaining flips, dashes and bumps. Players looking for familiar jump-based controls will need to adapt to a different way of navigating levels.
What is Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom?
Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom is an arcade platformer set across hand-crafted, retro-style levels.
Movement centers on flips, dashes and bumps rather than a jump button, with players spending much of their time in the air to reach places in each stage. The levels are built around collecting items, including in hard-to-reach corners and areas beyond the expected boundaries. The game also includes characters such as Pizza King, Morio and Ultra Chad. Their interactions contribute to a story about piecing together a puzzle and uncovering a conspiracy on Granny's Island. Its focus is on movement, exploration and collecting within a platforming adventure.
