Bossa Nova
Primitive people played a lot
more primitive volleyball
than most people realize.
Also, their music was pretty
sophisticated.

Gameplay

In the game, the player takes control of Bossa, bouncing away shapes as they fly onto the screen along with Nova. Each shape follows a fixed rhythm with no change. The square shapes have two beats with the second beat at half. The circle shapes always start with a single note, then continues with two quick notes before a beat. Occasionally Bossa and Nova may switch positions, swapping roles with the shapes.

Controls

  • Ⓐ/Tap: Bump

Timing Display

  • Perfect!/Ace!?: The player bumps the shape.
  • Early!/Late!?: The player bumps the shape very weakly, causing it to fall down with a "doink" sound. In the Two Player Endless Game, this causes the players to lose a life.
  • Miss...?: The player gets struck by the shape. The voices get interrupted as a result, and briefly sound angrier afterwards. If the player bounces at the same as Nova does, the two bump heads and she yelps. In the Two Player Endless Game, this causes the players to lose a life.

I'm glad we moved here from
the cave. It's warmer, and
there's a volleyball court in
the yard. The neighborhood
has a few loud mastodons,
but no place is perfect.

Skill Star

The Skill Star appears after the cloud passes by the fishing caveman, in the middle of Bossa bumping the round objects near the end of the game. It is notable for being placed in the middle of a set of actions rather than a transition, as most other Skill Stars in the game.

Bossa Nova (ボッサレシーブ?, Bossa Receive) is the 5th Two-Player Endless Game in Rhythm Heaven Fever, unlocked with 8 Duo Medals.

The game is a Two Player endless version of the original, ending once all three lives are lost. P1 controls Bossa and P2 controls Nova. The background is now a featureless grey void. Each time the pair hits a shape, a letter is typed out on the top of the screen, ultimately spelling out a story.

Rhythm Heaven Fever Beat the Beat: Rhythm Paradise
Bossa and Nova are one
of those wonderful,
charming, witty, urbane
couples that their
neighbors adore.
They live in a split-
level cave in the trendy
part of Big Field with
Fruit Trees.
Bossa's work takes him
all over Big Field, and
the animals love him.
He is especially popular
among elderly animals,
who appreciate his old-
world manners.
Nova is a well-known
local artist whose
paintings adorn all the
best nearby caves.
On this particular day,
Bossa is taking a day
off to help Nova move
the largest painting she
has ever done. It's
going to a cave near Big
Hole with Mastodon
Skeleton in It. An art
collector has already
paid Nova quite a few
shiny stones and flint
tools for it.
Working together, the
two of them move the
large painting into the
cave and hang it on the
wall. Then they step
back and admire Nova's
work in its new home.
"It definitely makes the
cave come alive," says
the art collector, "but
I'm afraid it just won't
do. It clashes with the
other pieces. Unless...
I can commission some
more of your work to
replace them?" Bossa
and Nova grin. It may be
time for Bossa to quit
his job promoting conch-
shell performances and
become Nova's full-time
agent...
THE END
Bossa and Nova
lived in a house in
a giant tree. Bossa
got up early to
tend to his garden.
Bossa's vegetables
were the best
in all the land.
Nova made Bossa's
lunch every day
before he set off.
When Bossa had
left, she did her
chores and put some
flowers in a vase.
Bossa took a break
by a big tree. He
ate lunch and
tried to decide
what shapes the
clouds made in the
sky.
He shared his food
with some young
bears that were
drawn by the
smell of Nova's
delicious food.
After lunch, Bossa
took a nap in the
afternoon sun.
Nova went out
shopping after
lunch.
Recently, her
Monkey Watch had
worn out so she
went to get the
monkeys changed.
Then she bought a
rainbow-coloured
candle that Bossa
wanted. Bossa
visited the
forest's old
animals to make
sure they were ok.
He gave them his
delicious veg and
Nova's bread.
Bossa's visits always
made them happy.
Nova returned from
the shops and
made dinner.
She made Bossa's
favourite food,
pizza. Of course,
she used Bossa's
vegetables.
Bossa finally called
in to see the old
owl who had a
special box for him.
He thanked her and
went home. Nova
set the table,
dimmed the lights
and finished the
pizza.
Bossa returned to
this wonderful
sight. Nova gave
him a kiss.
Bossa put the box
on the table and
took out a cake.
He then took the
special candle
and placed it on
the top.
As they gazed
into each other's
eyes, Bossa said,
Happy Birthday!
