Overview
Spitlings is a chaotic jumping and shooting game for up to four players. You each play a Spitlings, who need to get rid of all the bubbles on each level by spitting at them or jumping on them. The twist is that players need to look after each other because if one player fails, everyone restarts the level together.
As you work together to do away with the bubbles you need to keep an eye on your limited supply of ammunition. You can take on timed challenges after completing a level to unlock harder modes and more playable Spitlings.
There is a main Story mode where you help the Spitlings cope with a world that rains nasty goop that turns into bubbles and threatens to entrap them. Or there is an Arcade mode where you can pick the rules yourself - play upside down, never stop jumping, wear a space helmet. At the end your performance will be judged with an array of unique medals.
