Mr. Kicker
Mr. Kicker is an arcade action game released in 2001 by SemiCom. Players control a character who uses kicks and physical attacks to fight through waves of enemies across multiple stages. The gameplay follows a side-scrolling beat-em-up structure, with the player moving through each level, defeating enemies to progress toward a stage boss. Controls include basic attack buttons for kicking and striking, with the ability to jump and execute combination moves. Each stage presents different enemy types that increase in difficulty. The game features a two-player cooperative mode, allowing a second player to join simultaneously. SemiCom was a Korean developer known for producing arcade titles during this era, and Mr. Kicker fits within their catalog of straightforward action games designed for arcade cabinet play.
