Gryphline :

Global game publisher GRYPHLINE is proud to share that POPUCOM, the upcoming whimsical co-op adventure platformer game, has ranked among the top-performing demos at Steam Next Fest, placing in the top two Active Demo Players and in the top three Trending Upcoming categories, which include all games that participated in the event since Oct. 14. The free demo is available to download digitally on Steam through Oct. 21 and has reached over 14,000 peak concurrent players, according to SteamDB. POPUCOM is the latest from the creators of the beloved tactical RPG and tower defense hybrid hit, Arknights and is coloring its way onto the PlayStation®4 and PlayStation®5 computer entertainment systems and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store. 

POPUCOM’s inclusion in Steam Next Fest marks the first playable public demo following its Western debut at Gamescom and PAX West this year, and earned praise for its intuitive co-op gameplay and eye-catching visuals: 

“Normally I’m not that excited about co-op only games. But when they’re this creative and fun to play, I get hyped. And it’s fair to say that POPUCOM was easily one of the best games I demoed this year at PAX West." - Hey Poor Player

“POPUCOM concocted a formula for the perfect cooperative experience, and I can't wait for more.” - TechRaptor

POPUCOM is a fantasy adventure set in a mysterious parallel universe. Co-start your journey by teaming up with a friend – and enter a world filled with colorful settings. Grab a Rainbow Popper and fire-colored bullets at the naughty Pomus. Matching three Pomus of the same color instantly pops and eliminates the threat. In addition to the Pomus, players must discover the right timing for jumping, changing color, or activating special mechanisms to navigate the stages successfully.  

Key Features:

Play with Friends! Enjoy up to four-player couch co-op with split-screen as well as online co-op with cross-play support. Team up and work together to become the rainbow and save the world in a co-op adventure featuring a wide variety of 3D platform puzzle stages, as well as mini-games. 

Become the Rainbow: Use your Rainbow Popper to shoot, match, and pop brightly-colored Pomus, solving various match-3 and physics puzzles to advance through each stage. 

Recruit Trustworthy Companions: Making new friends is also an essential skill in this 3D platforming adventure. Recruit Rollo the Bomb, Captain Kitty, Barrier Bot, and Power Kid as your helpful companions to solve the puzzle and save the world!
