Kick Buttowski: Loco Launcho, also known as Loco Launcho: Featuring Kick Buttowski or just Loco Launcho, is a Licensed Game series featuring the main protagonist of Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil. It's made in Adobe Flash and iOS originally released in 2010. You play as Kick who has to accomplish three goals on each level: reach a far enough distance, a high enough altitude, and enough WOW points. This is accomplished by either pressing up just as the meter is green or hitting a button very quickly, then he has to control his vehicle to ensure he collects stars and passes through rings to perform tricks. There are 10 levels in the game, plus two extreme levels in the sequels.


These games provide examples of:

  • Amusement Park: The fifth level is the fun fair at night.
  • Button Mashing: Extreme and later games make you tap the acceleration button as fast as possible to gain launch speed.
  • Character Customisation: You can customise the vehicle's design with five different styles for each part.
  • Inflating Body Gag: The Inflate-A-Kick trick has the hero inflate his body in the air temporarily.
  • Made of Iron: Just like in the show, Kick can fall from thousands of meters above ground and survive without a scratch.
  • Mission-Pack Sequel: Most games are the same, they just have some slight mechanic change or a new design style.
  • Skill Point Reset: You can reset all upgrades and get all spent WOW points back.
  • Speed Stripes: The game shows diagonal moving lines when Kick flies at a high enough speed.
  • A Winner Is You: You only get a screen with Kick raising his fist as a reward for beating all 10 levels. It's not even unique as it's displayed in the upgrade shop, there is only a different background.
