POPUCOM
POPUCOM is an upcoming multiplayer co-op 3D puzzle adventure platformer from the creators of the popular RPG and tower defense hybrid, Arknights.
Set in a colorful parallel universe, players will grab a Rainbow Popper to fight against the naughty Pomus by firing colored bullets.
By matching 3 Pomus of the same color, the players will then pop and eliminate the threats and navigate through new stages.
In addition to the Pomus, players must also jump with the right timing, changing the correct color, or activating unique mechanisms to advance through stages.
Furthermore, the world of POPUCOM also features recruitable companions such as Rollo the Bomb, Captain Kitty, Barrier Bot, and Power Kid to help solve puzzles.
As mentioned, POPUCOM is a multiplayer co-op title, and it will feature both local split-screen and online co-op with cross-play support.
Players will be able to team up in a group of 4 to work together to solve a wide variety of 3D platform puzzle stages and participate in various mini-games.
