Diet Family

Choose from five distinct characters in Diet Family, a cooperative shooter released by SemiCom in 2001 for two players. The gameplay centers around eliminating food items while striving to avoid gaining weight – presumably, this is the central objective of each level. Players utilize an eight-way joystick and two buttons to navigate their chosen character through vertical scrolling environments. This gallery-style shooter encourages teamwork as both players work together to clear stages filled with various edible obstacles. Success depends on precise aiming and coordinated movement to overcome challenges and progress further into the game. Diet Family offers a straightforward yet engaging experience, combining familiar shoot 'em up mechanics with a unique thematic twist for two simultaneous players.
