Pink Goes to Hollywood

About

Pink Goes to Hollywood is a side-scrolling platformer where the Pink Panther scrambles through movie sets to evade Inspector Clouseau. Players navigate levels set in locations like graveyards, jungles, and mansions, using jumps, ducks, and a boxing glove to fend off enemies. Environmental props like magic carpets and umbrellas help access new areas while items such as stoplights and bowling balls turn the tide in fights. The game emphasizes quick reflexes and timing as you dart between platforms and dodge obstacles across increasingly chaotic stages. This SNES version distinguishes itself with level designs that differ from the Genesis release offering a fresh layout for familiar challenges. The humor of the Pink Panther’s slapstick antics shines through in the exaggerated set pieces and cartoonish physics. Though dated by modern standards the game’s playful tone and varied environments kept it memorable for 90s platformer fans. With no online leaderboards or modern updates it remains a niche entry best approached as a curiosity of early 90s anime-inspired gaming.

Storyline

The Pink Panther is on his way to Hollywood to audition for an important role. Chased by his nemesis Inspector Clouseau, he flees into the MGM Studios. From the main entrance, you can enter different movie sets with distinct areas such as graveyards, manors or the jungle. Using a side-scrolling view, Pink Panther can jump, duck, run, climb and use a boxing glove to knock out enemies. Additionally, there are special tricks and props such as magic carpets, umbrellas and stairs to reach higher regions. Items such as stoplights, jackhammers, bowling balls, shields and supergloves give an advantage in the battles.
