Fast-paced local multiplayer combat
Boomerang Fu, developed and published by Cranky Watermelon, is a vibrant multiplayer party game centered on quick, strategic combat. Players control cartoon-style food characters—such as Eggplant and Avocado—battling in top-down arenas by throwing and recalling boomerangs to eliminate opponents.
The game features multiple modes, including Free-for-All, Team Up, Golden Boomerang, and Hide and Seek, offering varied competitive and cooperative gameplay styles. While Boomerang Fu is primarily designed as a couch multiplayer experience, it also supports Steam Remote Play Together, allowing players to connect online through streamed local sessions.
Boomerang Fu features over 30 arenas set in a colorful, food-themed world, each filled with unique tools, traps, and environmental hazards. Players jump across moving platforms, trigger sliding walls, dodge rolling pins, and navigate dynamic stage elements that can quickly turn the tide of a match.
Interactive arenas that encourage strategic play
In addition to environmental interaction, players collect power-ups—such as explosive boomerangs, disguises, and telekinesis—which can be stacked to create powerful combinations. Together, the arena design and stackable abilities encourage experimentation, adaptability, and quick strategic thinking in every round.
Competitive and cooperative game modes
Boomerang Fu features multiple game modes with both competitive and cooperative options. Free-for-All delivers fast-paced solo combat, Team Up allows players to join forces against opponents or AI, and Golden Boomerang challenges players to hold onto a special boomerang to score points. The game also includes Hide and Seek, where players disguise themselves as objects while others attempt to track them down. These modes, along with customizable rule options, create a varied party experience suited to different player preferences.
