✨ GAME FEATURES

• 🚀 Fast-Paced Cannon Action: Slide, charge, and rapidly launch fireworks matching your trajectory perfectly with the targets over the bay!
• 🌪️ Dynamic Weather & Wind: Read the constantly shifting wind arrows as your fireworks drift wildly off-course. Watch as massive, deep parallax clouds lazily drift through the foreground, or completely shroud the Tokyo Port in dense fog!
• 🔥 FEVER MODE!: Keep the crowd fully engaged (Happiness 100). If you finish a stage completely maxed out, you trigger a 2-second hyper mode. Spam massive glowing starbursts for insane combo points with zero penalty!
• 🎮 Beautiful Retro Ambiance: Features four seamless visual Palettes! Smoothly cycle between Nostalgic True Color, Gameboy-Green, Virtual Boy Red, and LCD Gray directly from the Options menu.
• 🗼 The Tokyo Seasons: Build your combo through 20 handcrafted stages ranging from the Tokyo New Year, through Sakura season, and into the Grand Finale. Let the crowd's emotional praise wash across the skyline!
