Tentang Demo Ini

Nippon Marathon 2: Daijoubu is a fast, physical, pick-up and play multiplayer experience where every stumble, dive, and melon toss can turn the tide. Whether you’re chasing victory or just trying to survive the next octopus attack, every race is unpredictable, hilarious, and unforgettable.

This demo gives you a first taste of the mayhem — one full stage, a handful of weapons, and all the slapstick wipeouts, octopus attacks, and friendship‑destroying moments the series is known for.

If you enjoy what you play, please consider wishlisting the full game. It genuinely helps our tiny team more than you’d think!

Think you can handle Japan's most bizarre sporting event?

Why Release a Demo?

Some games just feel better in your hands, and Nippon Marathon is one of them — the fruit weapons, physics, and chaotic wipeouts really click once you’re actually in the race. This demo gives you a chance to feel that for yourself, whether you’re running solo or testing the limits of your friendships in local multiplayer.

As a small team, seeing how players interact with the game helps us understand what’s landing well and where we can push the chaos even further. It’s a small slice of what’s coming, and we hope it gives you a clear sense of the direction we’re heading.
