About the Game

Embark on an epic quest to deliver pancakes to Pembrook's Manor in this action-packed roguelite. Recruit companions and battle through hordes of monsters with your culinary arsenal, facing off against unique bullet hell bosses with challenging mechanics.

Why choose between dodging and destroying? Pancake Patrol fuses the auto-firing satisfaction of a Bullet Heaven with the precise, pattern-weaving challenge of a Bullet Hell. Crush thousands of minions, then test your reflexes in intense 1v1 showdowns against bosses that fill the screen with projectiles.

You don't have to deliver breakfast alone. Recruit companions along your run to fight by your side. Build a balanced squad to cover your blind spots, draw enemy fire and help you shred through the hungry hordes.

Cook up the perfect build. Discover, upgrade and combine quirky food-based weapons. Freeze enemies with Whip(ped) Cream, sweep the screen with a Maple Syrup Tornado or discover other culinary combinations to tear through the monster buffet.

Select from 10 unique characters, each offering a different playstyle, starting weapons and special abilities to customize your run.

Tackle different challenges depending on your appetite:

  • Horde Mode: Battle chaotic waves of minions mutated by wild game modifiers.

  • Boss Rush: A gauntlet of 10 epic boss showdowns with no downtime.

  • Bacon Rush: Dodge sizzling bacon bullets completely unarmed in a pure test of movement.

  • True Bullet Hell: Weave through a relentless storm of dense bullet patterns.

  • Classic Bullet Heaven: Sit back, level up and watch the screen melt.

  • 10 Unique Heroes with distinct skills and stats

  • 10 Epic Bosses featuring custom-designed 1v1 bullet patterns

  • Companion System to hire allies mid-run to support your survival

  • Steam Leaderboards and Achievements to prove your skill.
