A 100-Mile Trail Race, Rebuilt as an 8-Bit Video Game

Goat Rodeo 100 is an 8-bit ultratrail running game. Climb, descend, manage your fuel, and try to make it to the finish.

Today I’m releasing a deeply unnecessary 8 bit ultratrail running game called Goat Rodeo 100.

Sorry, desktop only. Also, if you encounter problems, let us know in the comments on this post.

The premise is simple. You are attempting to finish a 100-mile trail race while managing fuel, energy, hydration, caffeine, aid stations, bad decisions, and the slow unraveling of your own judgment.

You can choose between two runners. Both are totally random and have no connection to the outside world. Completely original.

The game is free to play. Your email is the ticket in, mostly because Borderlands is building an independent media platform and email is still the cleanest way to stay connected without depending entirely on algorithms.

Help build the leaderboard - go play Goat Rodeo 100.
