Gameplay

Bouncy Bullets has 84 levels, all of which require the player needing to platform and shoot enemies to get to the end (a blue portal) of its levels.

The game has 2 types of bullets, purple and yellow, with the colors killing the matching colored enemies. There are also black and grey colored enemies. To kill a black enemy, the player needs to have any colored bullet land on the black enemy in a bounce, while shooting a grey enemy with any colored bullet will cause the player to lose. Yellow and purple boxes can only be broken when shot with the matching color bullet.

Reception

Bouncy Bullets on PlayStation 4 received "mixed or average reviews" from critics, receiving a 61/100 score on review aggregator Metacritic.

In a review for Cubed3, Josh Di Falco praised how the game's levels are quick to start and also believed that Bouncy Bullets was designed to "be a time sink" and that it was designed to provide the player with a "few hours of fun for a low price."

Legacy

On June 20, 2020, Petite Games announced on Twitter that a sequel to Bouncy Bullets was in development and would be released for the PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and possibly the PlayStation Vita. The sequel, Bouncy Bullets 2, was released in 2021. Reviewers noted the sequel's improved movement controls compared to its predecessor.

Bouncy Bullets was two of the games YouTuber PS4Trophies completed during his world record of most Platinum Trophies received on a PlayStation 4 in 20 hours.
