This game does have a good concept under the hood: but the lack of options and problems that occur lead to a game that just finished a little short of what I think it needs. Including Gameplay Footage and First Impressions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e308RQcXCqk +: - Against a human AI, first several matches will be fun and chaotic. It's the kind of game that if you forget about it, it could be fun again at later times. - Look and music fits, and was fun to watch and listen. - Levels are distinct. -: - Maps lack of randomization for the hide spots. powerups are randomized seemingly (maybe?) but the fact is that you'll find a straight way of going about the level and hiding. - Dash control will taking getting used to. - Single Player. This game was designed to be a multiplayer experience, and it shows in the powerups and the AI. Seems backwards on always being the celebrity in single player. - See too many opportunities for strong game mechanics (character having unique abili...

About This Game
Avoid the paparazzi.
Paparazzi is a local multiplayer game of cat-and-mouse. The celebrity runs, dashes, and hides while the paparazzi tries to take constant photos of them. It's a simple yet competitive arcade-action game with a Where's Waldo feel. It's a test of focus and reflexes and a silly take on celebrity culture.
Each match is a tug-of-war battle between a celebrity (battling for dignity) and a paparazzo (battling for money). When the paparazzo player takes a picture of the celebrity, the paparazzo gains money while the celebrity loses dignity. If the celebrity collects an adoring fan, they regain a chunk of their dignity. At the end of each round, when the celebrity reaches the limo, the winner is the player that has more dignity or money!
Matches can be played multiplayer, with one celebrity player and one paparazzo, or single player as celebrity vs. a paparazzo AI.
NOTE: This game was intended to played with your friends! We've got a single player mode for you to hone your celebrity skills, but the intent of the game is to bring friends together in fun competition!
The game also supports Xbox 360 controller, which is the preferred way to play celebrity!
The game contains:
- Six unique levels
- Seven silly characters
- Four celebrity powerups
- A big handful of dumb jokes

User Reviews
Here's the good, the bad, and the ugly on Paparazzi Pros: +An innovative and entertaining game based around the game of Hide & Go Seek! +A catchy and fast-paced soundtrack that really captures Paparazzi's theme of fright & frenzy +Responsive controls, a fair balance of manueverability that prevents either the celebrity or camera from being too OP +Visually appealing 8-bit Atari/NES-ish sprites and levels On the Fence..... +/- Local Competivie Multiplayer +It's fair, balanced, fully funtional (no glitches here!), and FUN!! - Unless you have RMs, a GF/BF, or friends who regularly visit you'll most likely end up playing by yourself (which isn't necessarily a BAD thing) Cons: -Lack of online multiplayer and (by extension) no online scoreboard postings -Limited replay value Macho Dan's Final Score....8/10 Kim Kardashians "This is game is a good old fashioned head-to-head hide & go-seek rat race. Play it with your friend(s) if they're with you. If you're of drinking age tr...
I loved this game, it is great for ALL ages and the music is amazing. It's a game I would recommend to anyone. It's a great game for two players, with the potential of hours of fun.
The trailer is more exciting than the game.
Why rate negative? This is THE game that teaches us how to survive in a world of r/c aerial drones. Apparently.
It's a lot of fun if you have someone to sit down and play it with, especially considering how inexpensive it is. If you are on the fence consider watching the link below. They are playing on console what is literally the same game, there are no differences I'm aware of. http://www.penny-arcade.com/patv/episode/paparazzi It is not a game I would recommend for solo play however. If you are looking for a single player game, look elsewhere.
