PoPo Panic is a one screen arcade-like side-scroller starring a cool cop and a bunch of crooks! Zap and knockout all the baddies in four unique zones to save the city!

PoPo Panic started out as our first game jam project. What we thought would be a small prototype one weekend in highschool turned into a fully fledged project we'd add to bit by bit during our busy college lives for the next 4 years.

What came of it was a short but polished one screen arcade game inspired by the movement polish of Donkey Kong '94, theming of Elevator Action, and core "stun elimination" mechanic  form Mario Bros.

We really wanted to do our take on classic arcade action by designing a simple yet deep movement system, amplifying kinesthetics/game feel, and a poppy candy colored pixel art style that suite the game's cartoonish tone.

I'm pretty nervous to finally share this game...my friend and I have been working on it for years and here it is! Please check it out and leave a comment to let us know what you think!
