Panty Shot is a definition-only page


* PantyShot: Ho boy, this game loves them. Unsettlingly, they appear most frequently at the most inappropriate times, such as when Kio has been murdered. The Save Points in this game also appear as panties, which is more humorous.

Another one shows a zombie tearing off Kio's shirt as he devours her, and another one flashes Kio's underwear as she lays sawn in-half on the floor. Bear in mind Kio is only 16 years old.

The game is notorious for its graphic and heavily detailed "Game Over" screens and tendency to break the fourth wall.

!!This game provides examples of:

* CrapsackWorld: The alternate world Kio is trapped in after the earthquake. After escaping the dungeon, the town she used to know is now inhabited with zombies, destroyed buildings, fallen aircraft, and littered with corpses.

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: There are lots of ways for Kio to die, and some of them aren't exactly conventional. We also see a young girl get sawn in half from the torso upwards to give her heart to Kio.

* EldritchAbomination: The giant worm that Kio must fight towards the end.
