A strange little side quest
Uphill Rush has plenty of company in a long tradition of players chasing timing, patterns and better decisions. Formula 1 introduced pit-lane speed limits during the 1994 season as safety concerns grew around increasingly fast cars and busier pit lanes. That is only half the story. Street Fighter II, released in 1991, turned head-to-head arcade fighting into a worldwide phenomenon and helped define the modern fighting-game genre. That is the kind of background detail that makes another attempt at Uphill Rush feel a bit more connected to the history of play.
