Ocean Runner is exactly what it says: an endless runner. A rather easy one, should I say. I managed to complete the storyline (yes, there is a storyline) and to buy every upgrade in less than 4 hours.
Completing missions, that reminds me of Jetpack Joyride's missions, let the story progress. Nothing special about the story, but nobody would blame that in an endless runner.
The upgrades are okay, but nothing special: a turtle that leaves shells (in-game currency), a shark that eats jellyfishes (one of enemies species), a fireball that lets you sprint forward in a burst of fire, a bubble that makes the enemies harmless for a short period of time, a magnet for the shells that lasts for a short period of time.
Also, you can dash through the enemies to build up a combo multiplier, that lets you make more points.
