Head Panic (ver. 8.30) — About this game
Head Panic (ver. 8.30) follows Polly and Sally through monster-filled platform screens around the world. Their ordinary attack launches a head as a projectile, while defeated enemies leave play balls that roll and arc through further targets. A yo-yo pickup improves the basic weapon, giving a different option for the next crowded screen. The characters can also drop down through platforms instead of always climbing upward. Clear every monster to finish a round, then defeat the boss before moving to another world. Learn a safe opening throw before chasing the ball through another group.
