Chip-chan Kick!

About

Chip-chan Kick! is a side scrolling platformer from Custom Co. that tasks players with bopping foes using a squishy creature swung like a yo-yo. Choose between two identical female protagonists each armed with the same gooey companion. Smack enemies in tight quarters or team up with another player for local co op. Levels encourage precise jumps and timing as you whack bugs and avoid hazards. The simple mechanics focus on quick reflexes over complex strategies. This NEC PC FX title stands out for its quirky charm and straightforward two player support. Despite limited visual flair by mid 90s standards the bouncy action remains satisfying. Community forums note it's a forgotten co op gem among retro platformers. Released in 1996 it carved a niche for players seeking lightweight but responsive combat. The lack of character differences or powerups keeps the focus on pure playability.
