Showtime (ショータイム shoutaimu) is the 14th rhythm game in Rhythm Tengoku. In this game, the player controls a monkey hitting a switch that releases a ball in the air, being caught by a penguin. If the penguin doesn't catch the ball, it falls in the water. Getting a perfect will unlock a song of this game.
Gameplay
This game is short and easy. It's all about a big show time at the zoo. You are playing as a monkey (a yellow one with a tail), all you have to do is to hit switch with a hammer to let penguins catch balls and land upon you to make the crowd happy. There are 3 types of penguins:
- Gwen the grey penguin (3 Beats)
- Gonzales the small, white penguin (Same as Gwen, but with a bouncier rhythm)
- Glacier the big, black penguin (5 Beats)
Controls
Timing Notes
- Hit: The crowd will applaud loudly or quietly as the penguin catch a ball and lands on the podium, the balls will sometimes open tiny parachutes, making penguin flew upon you if you perfect your timing.
- Barely: The crowd will gulp as the ball is released too early and a penguin can't reach it and falls down in the water. Barely counts as a miss.
- Miss: The crowd will boo at you as the ball is not released and the penguin falls down in the water.
Rating Notes
- Try again: "The customers looked angry..."
- OK: "This shouldn't have been a problem for us..."
- Superb: "Woohoo! The crowd loves us!"
