Raccoon Rising is a slick new vertical platformer from Romper and Pixelnauts that answers the age old question of who would win in a battle between Raccoons and Robots. Even if you’ve never pondered the question you’ve got to admit it makes for an interesting premise…
Racoon Rising follows the tale of a sleepy raccoon who’s been awakened by the sounds of robots invading his forest home. You’ll take control of the agile mammal in a world where upwards means forward and obstacles can mean certain death. Raccoon Rising requires you to jump side to side in order to progress upwards through each gate which is much harder than it sounds.
The controls may be simple, but avoiding spikes, robots, and other hazards is going to take some skill. Raccoon Rising offers up around 60 gates spanning four worlds and plenty of character customization unlockable costumes.
The controls scheme behind Raccoon Rising is ingenious; the way you go about climbing through the levels is a blast and simple enough to where anyone will be able to play. The game is challenge though as you’ll have to avoid all sorts of nasty hazards, and snagging hard to reach credits can be very tough.
