Pineappo

Picked up Pineappo because I thought an Ikiki game about tropical fruit might be interesting… nope, it’s another overhead commando game!

The “pineappo,” in this case, must refer to the grenades you use in lieu of a gun (press “z”). You can also punch guards by pressing shift (very dangerous), or… perform an action which appears to be spitting (“x”). I think it’s meant to draw the guards’ attentions, but I’m not sure.

It’s fun to see how Ikiki’s designs develop from game to game. This one definitely feels like it comes somewhere between Tetuhau and Hakaiman, when you examine the mechanics involved, as well as the overall polish.

I feel like I just uncovered the missing link, or something.

Yeah, it seems like the archive is corrupted. Shame. This is one of my favourite of Ikiki’s games and I was looking forward to playing it again.

Aww, the only thing I can unzip from it is the dll…

“pineappo”? sounds like some one with an Asian accent saying pineapple.

Ug, this is probably my least-favourite Ikiki game. Silly grenades.

Yeah, “x” is a spitball gun. Man, I remember that there was a guy on the old Fallen Angel Industries forum recommending this game and me having trouble unzipping it ‘cause of the Japanese folder names. But I tried this a while ago and it’s pretty neat. I just like Hakaiman too much more than this to fully enjoy it.
