Rhino Dash
A runner game for young kids, set in Sauraha, Chitwan.
The problem
Young players were quitting our first version within a couple of minutes.
What we built
- A cartoon rhino dashing through a Nepali town: tap to jump, bounce on what comes your way for combos.
- Version 1.2 rebuilt the first minute for kids: a finger that shows where to tap, three hearts, coins, colour skins and a daily gift.
- Tuned for low-end Android phones: lighter textures, fewer frame spikes, hitboxes redrawn frame by frame.
Where it is now
Live on Google Play since November 2025.
Built with
Godot 4.5
About Rhino Dash
Rhino Dash is a free endless runner game for Android, set in Sauraha, the town at the edge of Chitwan National Park in Nepal. You play a cartoon rhino running down the road: tap to jump, bounce on what comes your way for combos, and pop balloons for power-ups.
Version 1.2, released in October 2026, rebuilt the game for young children. A moving finger shows where to tap, so no reading is needed. Every run has three hearts, coins unlock seven coloured rhinos, and a free daily gift greets players who come back. The back button no longer quits the game by accident.
We built Rhino Dash in Godot 4.5 and tuned it for low-end Android phones. It is rated Everyone, shows no ads, and its Google Play data safety section says it collects no data. It has been on Google Play since 13 November 2025, and the game has its own page at rhinodash.appynox.com.
