Yo! Noid is a 2D platform game featuring the popular Domino's Pizza mascot from the 1980's.
Overview
Yo! Noid features the "Noid" character from 1980's Domino's Pizza advertisements and his quest to save New York city from an attack planned by "Mr. Green." Yo! Noid differs from several other games of its era that were created to push a product or mascot in that it is fairly high in difficulty; this is likely due to the fact that the game is merely a port of a Japanese game called Kamen no Ninja Hanamaru with all of the background art and sprites replaced.
Gameplay
Standard Levels
The majority of the game can be classified as standard 2D platforming, requiring the player to guide the character to the end of the level without being hit or falling off the bottom of the screen. A few levels have variations, such as one in which the Noid rides a skateboard, another autoscroll level, and two levels where the player is required to control a gyrocopter. In all levels, being hit once will cause the player to lose a life. The difficulty is harsh, mainly due to the fact that losing a life means the player will have to restart the entire level again because there are no checkpoints.Pizza Eating Contest
Yo! Noid may be most memorable for its Pizza Eating Contests at the end of most levels, which seemed to function as a replacement for boss battles (even the final stage in the game does not have a traditional boss battle). These contests are essentially math-based puzzle mini-games.
