About this game
The game is a simple, old-fashioned block breaking game with very simple controls, and can be played by people of all ages, from small children to adults!
The player must hit the bells that appear on the field by using cat punches and special moves to hit them back!
The speed of the bells increases as they bounce off the screen, making the game more difficult!
There are 10 stages with increased volume, and the difficulty level increases as the stages progress, so it may be a little difficult until you get used to it!
Don't give up and try again and again to clear all 10 stages!
Difficulty level can be selected so that beginners can play.
Easy Mode for those who are not familiar with the game.
A total of 5 stages that allow you to start over from that stage even if the game is over.
Normal mode for those who have become accustomed to the game.
If the game is over, you have to start over from stage 1, so use items and Nyan Power to clear the stage!
There are 10 stages in total, and the ending is prepared when you clear the stage!
If you clear the normal mode with a high score, something good may happen...
In each stage, there are obstacle blocks that interfere with the player's attacks. These obstacle blocks (special blocks) can be destroyed by shouting attacks!
Destroying them adds to your score, so aim for a high score!
New elements implemented by update!
The in-game language is now available in 13 languages!
All stages have been redesigned.
All five previous stages have been redesigned, so that even those who have played the previous stages can still enjoy the game!
Addition of more stages.
The number of stages has been increased from 5 to 10!
Addition of Achievements.
The number of achievements has been added along with the increase in the number of stages!
New Actions
Shout Players can destroy obstructing blocks and hit back bells with a shout attack!
Spells Players can build up their Nyan Power Gauge by performing spells
New Nyan Power.
Nyan Block For a certain amount of time, a barrier appears at the bottom of the screen, making the player invincible.
Mirage Nyan: For a limited time, the player's alter ego will appear and move in the same manner as the player.
Nyan Blaster A huge screaming attack is generated in front of the player.
It penetrates enemies and inflicts damage.
Can also penetrate and destroy special blocks
Nyan power that can be selected for each stage.
You can select a Nyan Power for each stage you clear!
Choose which Nyan Power you like best for which stage!
Three types of items.
When you damage or defeat an enemy in each stage, an item will appear with a certain probability.
The following items will appear at random
Tule For a certain period of time, the color of the bell turns red and it can penetrate through enemies to inflict damage
Fish The speed of the bell is greatly reduced
Cat Can For a certain amount of time, the size of the bell increases by 3 times
Key Configuration.
It is now possible to change to buttons that are easier for you to operate.
Addition of ui after clearing a stage.
The image of the cat after clearing a stage has been greatly added to 10 patterns!
Tutorial mode.
A tutorial mode is included so that first-time players can play the game with ease!
Use this mode to familiarize yourself with the gameplay and controls!
Simple but air hockey-like action!
Use the left cat punch attack, the right cat punch attack, and the screaming attack special moves to hit the bells that appear on the field at the right moment, and hit the enemy cats on the stage!
The game gets more difficult as the stage progresses, so try again and again to clear the stage!
Players have one life remaining, and each time they clear a stage, their remaining life is increased by one. However, if the remaining life reaches 0, the game is over and the player must start over from stage 1.
I hope players will get the hang of the game and try again and again to clear all 10 stages without giving up in order to unlock achievements!
Sensitivity adjustment in option mode.
If you find it hard to control the game, you can adjust the speed of the player by changing the sensitivity adjustment in the options!
Adjust the speed to your liking!
