Angel Kids

About

Angel Kids is a quirky platform game where two players control flying children holding ends of a rope. By pulling joysticks outward, you launch a third child into the air, who bounces between floating targets. Popping balloons earns points and power-ups, but timing matters, the falling child needs a steady net of ropes to keep bouncing. Single-player mode lets you solo the chaos, while co-op adds frantic coordination as you tug ropes to keep the airborne kid aloft. Developed by Sega in 1988, the game leans into its offbeat premise with bright visuals and simple physics. Its charm lies in the absurdity of flying toddlers and the tactile joy of rope-pulling mechanics. While not a genre-definer, its playful design and local multiplayer made it a cult favorite in arcades. Short, sweet, and oddly satisfying.
