WTMG's Leo Faria: "I Hate Running Backwards is a nice little title, even though it's riddled with issues. It's far from being the best shooter out there, and its main selling point isn't exactly exciting, but if you're looking for something new from Devolver, you'll most certainly get your money's worth."
The never-ending shoot’em down roguelite I Hate Running Backwards is out now on Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo eShop for $14.99.
From Eurogamer: "A transformational patch quietly rolled out yesterday for wrong-way-around shoot-'em-up I Hate Running Backwards, and it's now even better."
Rob Pitt writes: I have a soft spot for shoot ’em ups, they are a guilty pleasure of mine which I dive into when I’ve got a little spare time. What I’m always looking out for though are games which add something new to the genre or mixes things up a little. I think I found a game which takes the genre and spins it around – literally!
