Our take on Nyaruru Fishy Fight
The bounce point arrives at higher difficulty, where simply attacking is not enough: players must observe enemy behavior, select suitable abilities and accessories, and use movement techniques during boss fights.
What is Nyaruru Fishy Fight?
Nyaruru Fishy Fight is a combat-focused Metroidvania about a cat girl investigating a curse that gives a small town’s residents cat ears and tails.
Exploration takes place across a complex world containing enemies, Catcoins, hidden treasure, items, and abilities. Nyaruru can use rapid fish-sword attacks, upward and downward strikes, dashes, double jumps, high-speed movement, and a skateboard-based low stance. Catcoins buy consumables, growth items, and ability items. Cat scratchers raise skill levels, cat catchers increase maximum HP, gemstones grant new skills, and accessories provide effects for boss fights and exploration. Bosses use different mechanics, while higher difficulty emphasizes observation, practice, ability selection, and combat strategy.
