Evaluation

Pan Panda launched on October 11, 2018 as a small, self-described experimental project. The developer posted several patches in the weeks following launch, then on December 18, 2020, published a notable update explaining that continued work had effectively evolved into an entirely separate game — Altarage (Steam App ID: 1491050). That same post included a small final update to Pan Panda (map completion, music tweaks, movement improvements), but the overall message was clear: the developer had moved on. No communications of any kind have been posted since December 18, 2020, and no future content has been announced. The store description reflects the game's original open-ended tone ("I'll just keep doing updates and stuff"), but that language predates the developer's December 2020 statement and has not been updated. The game appears to have shipped as a small, complete package, with the December 2020 patch marking the final update.

About this game

There are pandas. You find them and save them from the little yellow creatures.

I dunno... I like 3rd person action games so I made this. I'll just keep doing updates and stuff.

So it's basically capture the flag with pandas instead of flags, and they're randomly placed around the school so you have to run around looking for them, and every time you rescue one the enemies increase in number. And you power up your weapon by defeating enough enemies like most 3rd person action games, and there's a high score mode where you get back any lost lives every time you rescue enough pandas. It's only like 5 minutes long. I'm just gonna see what needs expanding or changing and build on it as I go.
