Move over Pizza Rat, there's a new critter looking to grab a slice of your viral
fame. Indie developer Cosy Computer and publisher Raw Fury announce
Pizza
Possum, a top-down, arcade action game coming later this year to PC,
PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch. The game's alliterative marsupial
protagonist is not a city-dweller, though, as the game is set on an island that is
clearly not Manhattan. The
Steam Listing
for this is live, showing the release date is "TBA." The premise is simple. Fill
your hungry belly, and don't get caught in the process. Here's the
Announcement Trailer and here's more:
Play as a cute, hungry possum in
fast-paced, arcade-action chaos, trying to devour as much food as possible
without getting caught by the guard dogs determined to halt your feast! Dog
patrols will try to stop you at every turn, but don’t fret. Your possum is very
sneaky, so use bushes to hide from patrols and keep the hunt going!
While searching a colorful variety of picturesque regions for delicious meals to
satisfy your taste buds, you'll gain points that allow you to unlock unique
items like smoke bombs, punching gloves and more to help you on your journey.
Enjoy fun and hectic gameplay with intuitive controls, a playful feel, and an
adorable soundscape on your own or with a co-op critter companion via local
multiplayer and Steam Remote Play Together.
