Bouncy Road

Bouncy Road (ホッピングロード) is the 19th game in Rhythm Tengoku and the 91st in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this game, Urakata Aki to Ki need your help to bounce off the balls that bounce down the road. Don't let them roll off. The arrange variant appears later on in Rhythm Tengoku called Hopping Road 2.

Gameplay
The game features a long, curving stretch of circular platforms. From the furthest platform, a ball spawns and begins to bounce along each of the platforms getting closer and closer to the screen. At the center and closest part of the screen is a yellow pole alongside a red pole. As the ball approaches, it will bounce along the other platforms in rhythm, until finally approaching the yellow and red ones, where the player must simultaneously use the A button and D-Pad respectfully to carry the ball across the end of the curve.

Timing Notes

 * Hit: The ball will continue its path.
 * Barely: The ball will still bounce, but will make a faltering sound. A barely counts as a miss in Rhythm Tengoku and Megamix.
 * Miss: The ball will hit the pole and then will fall off.

Skill Star
When you're near the end of the game and have one medium and fast ball, bounce the medium ball with a red pole perfectly to collect the star.

Trivia

 * Strangely, the epilogues for this game in Rhythm Heaven Megamix have Urakata Aki to Ki smiling no matter what, while in Rhythm Tengoku, they have different expressions.
 * This game's Practice is one of the few in Rhythm Tengoku that doesn't explain the controls to the player via text. It received a tutorial in the arcade version, in addition to the original Practice. In Rhythm Heaven Megamix, the Practice was reworked to include an explanation instead.
