Double Date

"It's your first date with the girl of your dreams! Also, some weasels are on a date! Don't let the double date be ruined by flying balls!"

- Double Date Description (US version)

Double Date (Wデート W Deto?) is the fourth game in Rhythm Heaven Fever. The playable character, a boy (Kouhai in Japanese), is on a date with his crush (Senpai in Japanese). He tries to kick away the sports balls that bounce toward them so the balls don't disturb the weasels near them nor distract their date. Getting perfect on this game earns a gift "My Feelings". A sequel is unlocked later on called Double Date 2.

Gameplay


There are three types of balls that bounce toward the group. The most common one that appears is the soccer ball. it bounces once. The next ball is the basketball. It will skid once and then bounce. This changes the rhythm and requires for him to kick slightly quicker. The last ball appears least frequently, and is the American football. It bounces three times before it reaches the boy. Because of this it moves at a slower rhythm than the others.

Controls

 * A: Kick

Timing Notes

 * Hit: A kick sound is heard. The weasels smile and cheer the boy. For American footballs and off-beat soccer balls, the weasels jump for joy, surprising the girl a bit.
 * Barely: A "doink" sound is heard. The boy cringes in pain as if he pulled his leg muscle. The weasels look back in surprise, and the ball falls to the side. A barely counts as a miss.
 * Miss:The girl gives a worried look. The weasels squeak and duck under the hole to avoid the missed sport ball. A missed American football would bruise the orange weasel's chin temporarily. Either way, the weasels pop back up with annoyed faces.
