Yo, Bro

Yo Bro is a top-down run and gun video game where players take control of a skateboarding bear named Little Bro. In each of the six levels, set in different Californian cities such as Santa Cruz and San Francisco, the evil Professor Liverhosen has placed deadly experimental creatures which the player is tasked with destroying. These creatures, including giant carnivorous plants, killer bees, and man-eating rabbits, can kill bystander children leaving skeletal remains scattered among the streets. The player can save these children by running into them.

Little Bro is initially equipped with a slingshot to fight enemies which can be upgraded using power-ups dropped from enemies. Other weapons can also be found, such as freeze rays and rocket launchers.

Yo Bro was developed by ICOM Simulations for NEC, the manufacturer and American distributor of the TurboGrafx-16. Previously ICOM had developed the MacVenture series for home computers. In 1990, ICOM announced they would be partnering with NEC to bring two CD games to the TurboGrafx-16, Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective and Camp California. The later was planned around the Camp California characters, a set of anthropomorphic surfing animals which had recently been designated the official mascots of the rock band The Beach Boys.

The game was one of the first products licensed based on these characters. Camp California was initially planned as "sports adventure" game with four minigames tied together with an overarching narrative. It was also announced to include CD-quality renditions of various Beach Boys songs.

TurboPlay magazine called Yo Bro a "slightly better than average game" with "many hours of enjoyable play." They criticized the graphics, saying there were not up to the quality standards expected from the TurboGrafx and called the controls difficult to get used to "like a real skateboard." Clayton Walnum of VideoGames & Computer Entertainment agreed that the controls were hard to get used to and the graphics disappointing. He did consider the arranged Beach Boys' to be a nice bonus and considered the game to have "hours of fun" once mastered.

Electronic Gaming Monthly reporting on the Winter CES version of the game called it "some of the best skateboardin' action anywhere." Brett Weiss in 2011 wrote that it was "playable, but the controls could use some fine tuning."
