Gameplay 80%
Platform Panic is a platformer adventure divided in rooms, and it works just like classic 2D games where the objective is to survive as long as possible. The character walks automatically, and you can only change the direction is going, left or right, and jump.
Graphics 84%
Platform Panic features nice 16-bit style pixel art. Characters look colorful and have nice animation, and there are some elements such as Tank Robots, which walk around in to legs, and then transform into a mini tanks with a caterpilar track and siren lights when they see you, which is a very good detail.
Production Quality 70%
The idea behind Platform Panic is good, a 2D adventure of random generated rooms, and it’s entertaining for casual players looking for a free platformer, but in execution, you’ll get bored after a while because you only walk and jump.
Value for your Money 80%
Platform Panic is free to play on Google Play and the App Store, and there’s a web version you can try out if you’ll like to try it out on your web browser, but of course you’ll see an ad everytime you die, and that can be pretty often depending on how good you’re at the game.Launch Video
Summary
Platform Panic is a fun pixelated adventure, for a while. It features nice looking 16-Bit graphics and music, but it’s simple gameplay mechanics just don’t make you keep playing, it lacks interaction and more complex gaming like in classic console platformers, but still, it’s worth trying out if you’re looking for a good looking casual 2D free title. Pros- Nice Pixel Art style and Chiptune Music
- Random Generated Levels to keep things fresh
- Many characters to unlock
- You’re limited in moves, and the lack of interaction can get boring compared to classic platformers
