A gameplay screenshot.

Panda Adventure is a simple single-screen platformer. You control a panda which must make its way from one side of the screen to the other.

Enemies include birds (which resemble, but are not completely identical to, the ones in Earthworm Jim 3, and are very hard to kill) and various ground-based enemies which can be defeated by jumping on them. Some screens include a pit which must be jumped over, sometimes with the assistance of a moving platform.

There are four different types of level, but the game does not appear to have any boss or ending, and just loops when you complete all the levels.

The game uses Hummer Team's sound engine and has two music tracks (plus a short Game Over tune), one of which is based on the same tune as a track from Sachen's World of Card Games, although it is unknown if Sachen's game is the original source. However, it is much simpler than many of Hummer Team's previous games.
