Osomatsu-kun - Hachamecha Gekijou

Released as an advertisement for the anime adaptation of the manga "Osomatsu-kun". It can safely be called a Japanese game. Everything around it is done in a comedic style. You play as Osomatsu, an armed slingshot. The control of the character is normal, jumping is done so that the character hangs smoothly in the air. In each level you have to find and defeat a mini-boss to open the way to the leader. You will have to find the fork in various ways - jumping into pits, flying on balloons, clouds or turtles, going through doors (including hidden ones!). After defeating the boss, you will receive increased health, shooting range and speed. You can also find a shop in the levels... First you have to play a mini-game like 'find the right path' or 'one-armed bandit', then you can buy various upgrades for the bows scattered around the levels. Wings allow you to fly for a short time, Octopus allows you to run faster, Fireworks deals a lot of damage (good for bosses), Cloak makes you temporarily invulnerable, Karashi damages all enemies on the screen, and Bone calls a cat to hit enemies. The game is short, with only three levels: if you know the route, it's quick.
