On Nov 13, 2014 11:34 am, by Jaymes Carter

Alex Andreadis of Over Easy Games, which is based in Melbourne, Australia, has a new game that was recently released for Android.

It is a new endless runner that will have you causing mayhem in the midst of the streets, as you navigate your bus at top speeds, so that the bomb on the bus won’t detonate. Oh, and the name of that film starring Reeves and Bullock… was Speed. Though Over Easy Games in tongue-and-cheek deny the similarities, it is still a fun game in its own right.
