Pittsburgh, PA, Sept. 06, 2024 – The confectionary connoisseurs at Mega Cat Studios, Space Pants Games, and Video Game Sage are excited to announce that their upcoming jet-powered adventure, Rocket Panda, will launch for the Sega Genesis and Mega Drive on September 16, 2024. 

Get ready to soar in a scrumptious adventure where collecting treats and battling ferocious enemies is the name of the game! In Rocket Panda, players join our heroic panda as he sets out on a delicious quest to gather goodies, rescue badgers, and thwart the nefarious Biscuit Head. With more than 60 maze-like levels to navigate and cookie-crumbling action, this retro gem promises to be a treat for fans of classic 16-bit gaming.

Key Features:

  • Blast through hordes of enemies commanded by the evil Biscuit Head, such as Flying Pigs, Mines, Toasters, Tanks, UFOs, and other dangerous creatures!

  • Collect all of the biscuits for the highest score, and drink tea to power up your dash move!

  • Challenge and defeat 7 Bosses in the game, including a giant Teacup, Dragon, Mega Toast, and Cheese Ball.

  • Fly through 60+ levels in the game, taking you across seven worlds. From Biscuit City to the Ice Cream Archipelago, the Chocolate Mountains, Candy Catacombs, and more!

“We’re really excited to get this out to the wonderful people still supporting the Genesis / Mega Drive,” said Julian Scott, owner of Space Pants Games. 

“Rocket Panda is finally here, and it’s packed to the brim with all that sweet, sweet, retro fun that ya’ll have been missing,” said Jev Reyes, Retro Marketing Manager at Mega Cat Studios. “We have been working on this with the Space Pants Games Team for a long time, and it means a lot to us that we can finally bring it to you. We hope you enjoy the game as much as we had fun working on it. This game would not be possible without your support!”

As players soar across a smorgasbord of vibrant, snack-themed stages strapped to their trusty jetpack, they'll face the nefarious Biscuit Head's evil lackeys, collect delectable power-ups, and test their mettle against a legion of bosses dead set on watching your bear-shaped cookie crumble. Whether you're a seasoned 16-bit veteran or new to the world of retro gaming, Rocket Panda promises to deliver a confectionary experience that’s as enjoyable as it is challenging.

So, mark your calendars for September 16th and get ready to blast off as Rocket Panda buzzes your Sega Genesis & Mega Drive.
