Catchy Tune

I like to hang out at the bottom of these stairs, because sometimes fruit bounces down them. Free Fruit!

— Catchy Tune Description

Catchy Tune (階段キャッチ Kaidan Kyattchi) is the fourth minigame introduced in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. In this game, the player controls two characters, Praline & Araline, one with the letter "A" on their shirt, and one with a D-Pad "+" on their shirt, as they catch the pineapples and oranges that bounce off from the top of stairs in an alley in the city.

A sequel later appears in Honeybee Tower under the title Catchy Tune 2.

Gameplay

The object of the game is to catch the fruit that drop from either the left or right sides of the screen. You use the D-Pad (+) for Praline to catch the ones on the left, and the A button for Araline to catch the ones on the right. The oranges are quick and bounce low, but the pineapples are slower and bounce high.

Trivia

• A member of the Clappy Trio can be seen in the wanted poster right to Araline.
  • This is likely a reference to how there used to be 4 members of The Clappy Trio, more likely called "The Clappy Quartet".
• This game has similar controls/rhythm to Tram & Pauline, Built to Scale (GBA) and it's sequel.
