A Wacky Cast of Characters and Spaceships!Take control of Colonel Kernel and the Popcorn Rocket crew as you battle against the evil Nebula Empire ruled by the evil Dr. Nebula, Cholesterol Commander, General Gluten, Major Metabolism, and much more!

Fully voiced with silly food based jokes, puns, and dialogue put the cheese in cheesy which will provide a fun and comedic experience, making you want more popcorn!

Are You Up For the Challenge?
Popcorn Rocket is no simple bag of microwave popcorn as it's a shoot-em-up with a capital "S". Your spaceship piloting skills must be at their best to avoid the multitude of calories the Nebula Empire throws at you! Battle challenging food based enemies and bosses which will test your mettle and if you're not careful, the Nebula Empire will clog your arteries! This isn't a place for simple microwave popcorn, you gotta bring your full buttery movie popcorn to this show in order to survive!

Pop-corny story, but difficult gameplay. If you're looking for a casual shoot-em-up, this is not it. I write this having just defeated the second boss.
