Pinkie is a platformer game released in 1993 for the Super Nintendo. Players control Pinkie, a small pink dinosaur, as the main character who embarks on a quest to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend. The game combines colorful, cartoon-style graphics with straightforward platforming challenges across various levels.
The main objective is to navigate through each stage, avoiding enemies and obstacles while collecting items to advance. The pace of Pinkie is moderately fast, encouraging quick reflexes and timing to overcome enemies and platform gaps. Players must use jumping and attacking abilities to clear the path forward.
A distinctive mechanic in Pinkie is the ability to inflate the character like a balloon to float over hazards, adding a unique twist to traditional platform gameplay. This unusual idea allows strategic movement and access to otherwise unreachable areas. The game's charm lies in its vibrant art style and the playful use of this inflation mechanic, setting it apart from other platformers of its time.
