About PapyPanic
Papy Panic: Intergenerational chaos is unleashed!
WACKY HIDE-AND-SEEK (PROP HUNT MODE) Slip on your most comfortable slippers, grab your walker, and dive into a completely absurd manhunt (or rather, furniture-hunt). Play as an unlikely object to blend into crazy environments where the layout changes every game, or become the hunter tasked with flushing out the imposters before the timer runs out.
PAPYMOBILE SURVIVAL (CLASSIC MODE) Grandpa forgot his glasses, the brakes were left at the factory, and the whole world seems to want to stop him. Take the wheel, survive as long as possible against unforgiving physics, and collect as much cash as you can to unlock new styles in the shop.
TOTAL TWITCH INTERACTION Your chat becomes your worst nightmare or your guardian angel. Whether you're disguised as a flower pot or behind the wheel of the Papymobile, your viewers trigger real-time events in your game. Get ready for absolute live chaos!
KEY FEATURES
- Arcade Driving & Crazy Physics: Simple controls (A/D)* combined with ragdoll physics that forgive zero trajectory errors.
- Tactical Obstacles: Strategically use city trash cans to correct your course before you crash.
- Survival Bonuses: Collect springs to launch yourself over danger and water bottles to cool down your overheating engine.
- Local Party Mode: Challenge your friends from the couch with a bowling-style scoring system to see who ends up at the scrapyard.
