Flipper-Flop

We may look like cute, fluffy lumps of joy, but we're a grizzled expedition team! Our captain trains us hard!

Rhythm Heaven Megamix

Flipper-Flop (コロコロたんけん隊 Korokoro Tankentai "Rolling Exploration Group") is the 21st minigame and a story variant of Flipper-Flop from Rhythm Heaven Fever that appears in Rhythm Heaven Megamix. The player controls a Flipper who must flip rolls with the other flippers. In this variant, the scenery begins at night, probably a training during the bedtime.

A sequel later appears in Barbershop Tower under the title Flipper-Flop 2.

Gameplay

File:Story Flipper-Flop gameplay.PNG

In this game, the player plays as a flipper, the third one in the row. After the caller says "Attention, company!", you must flip with the other members of the squad by pressing A button. The caller, Captain Tuck, will ask the seals to perform a certain amount of "flipper rolls", which are performed by pressing B button. Each cue goes at the same speed, but there are different intervals and mixes of them. Notice that the faster flip cue is not presented in this variant.

Controls

Button Mode

• A: Flip
• B: Roll over

Simple Tap Mode

• Tap: Flip or Roll over

Timing Notes

• Hit: The flipping will continue. After a successful flipper-roll chain, Captain Tuck will compliment the team with a "Good!" or "Yes!".
• Barely: The player's seal will get close to bumping, and will get a worried look on its face. If it happens during a flipper-roll chain, Captain Tuck will still compliment the team. A barely counts as a miss.
• Miss: The player's seal bumps into the seal(s) next to it, causing it to get a silly look on its face while the other seals get an annoyed face on them. If the messup happens during a flipper-roll chain, Captain Tuck will become disappointed and he will count the remaining rolls in an upset tone of voice. If the player over-flips the number of rolls designated, Tucker will exclaim in surprise as the player bumps into the other seal.

Trivia

• The "What are you blubbering for?" text in a try again epilogue screen of the game in American version is originally taken from the European version of Rhythm Heaven Fever.
• Flipper Flop is one of the few games that gained a sequel/threequel in Megamix. The others are Air Rally, Figure Fighter, The Clappy Trio, Rhythm Rally & Karate Man.
