Addictive Japanese web game - arrow golf!

ishi.blog2.fc2.com — Sorry for using "addictive" in the title, but in this case, it's true.... You are a cat, with a bow and arrow, and you have to hit the target.... Starts easy, but gets difficult quickly!

  • thethimble, on 10/11/2007, -3/+140Interesting.....

    Pro tip: You can shoot whilst in the air.
    • zanarkan, on 10/11/2007, -21/+46finally something original! (sick of these tower defense...)

      and thanks for the tip!
    • jasmin888, on 10/11/2007, -37/+22I've no idea how it works - not exactly fluent in japanese
    • JDWTC, on 10/11/2007, -5/+65Why apologise for using the word "addictive" -- at least you didn't say "addicting"
    • glasgowm, on 10/11/2007, -3/+33On this website we obey the laws of thermodynamics!
    • Quellman, on 10/11/2007, -42/+1Addictive? This? Not really.

      Not to be a downer but...
      Kitty cannon provides many more hours of fun.
    • FadieZ, on 10/11/2007, -2/+24It's sloppy...but I love it.
    • R34C7, on 10/11/2007, -2/+29It's funny, my score perfectly coincides with my productivity:

      Productivity: -13

      Nice find poster :-) Additional props to the programmers
    • ewap8, on 10/11/2007, -7/+2Man that is one Dopey cat!

      I managed to get a score of 21

    • dn11, on 10/11/2007, -9/+11it's a nice concept but too frustrating because you can't see where you are aiming
    • jinglee, on 10/11/2007, -15/+3wtf am i supposed to do in here?? I was just using all the keys possible!!
    • swordedge, on 10/11/2007, -0/+17+ 93, dropping out kills your score
    • carleethian, on 10/11/2007, -10/+3-7, you guys kidding about +23?
    • Kookami, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Best game from the Japanese 'cat tied to an inanimate object' genre since Neko Bulloon:

    • hdtvdust, on 10/11/2007, -4/+6Aside from the final hole, it was ridiculously easy. Even dropping out on the last for a +17 I scored a 13 under par.
    • sark666, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2That fullscreen link doesn't work anymore. Does anyone have any other direct links to the swf? This is actually a cool game and would like to keep it.
    • Gareshra, on 10/11/2007, -4/+13Everything about this game defies physics! You can shoot in the air, somehow creating momentum out of thin air. I think the creator of this game was high.


      ...dugg for insanity.
    • nivekreduls, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6This game is sweet! I first played it in my calc class on my teacher's computer. She got kinda pissed... But then I managed to relate it to math and got myself out of trouble! WOOT!
    • Modizzle, on 10/11/2007, -4/+3If you like this, you'll love the last spiderman video game.
    • charliecharlos, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7I swear that's Spider-man's cat!
    • Light11, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2reminds me of spiderman

      edit: guess it's been said
    • broeks, on 10/11/2007, -6/+3???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

      ??????? ?????????? google ????????????????????????????????
    • Rhino2, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6"??????? ?????????? google ????????????????????????????????"

      That's a deep mephor for the intenet dude.

      wait... what where we talking aabout again?
    • furude, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I think he tried to post a comment in Japanese and digg didn't support it.

      Let's test: このコメントは日本語である。
      Hmm... maybe it's just his web browser.
    • Fordi, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1-23. Beat that, diggers.

      Tip: You can fire while in midair.
    • brainclog, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Am I the only one who can't make the damn cat do anything? Dugg down for no instructions whatsoever (apparently not even in Japanese?) and the mouse, arrow keys, WASD, and every other key i've tried doesn't do anything!!!! Yes the window had focus when I was trying these. How is anyone even playing this game?
    • SadBeef, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1-19 :)
    • OAKsider, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Done. -25

      Hooah.
    • oliash, on 01/27/2008, -0/+1-36, what do i win?
  • MrBuckley, on 10/11/2007, -1/+66How is it that when i get a hole in one on a par 6 i only get -3?
    Then again I am playing a game where the goal as a cat is to shoot yourself to a target using a bow, and somehow call that golf.
    • R34C7, on 10/11/2007, -0/+38It gave me a Condor!
    • unloud, on 10/11/2007, -5/+7Albatros baby!
    • Gamer2k4, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Condor is better. It's the last one too; at -5 there's no name.
    • gone2slashdot, on 10/11/2007, -6/+0Pussy!

      I think this was supposed to be called "Hello Golf"
  • mmurray, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Wish I could end up with that kind of a score on the golf course. Absolutely bizarre and fun.
  • lansuggs, on 10/11/2007, -2/+23I've never heard of a condor until this game.
    • JorgeGT, on 10/11/2007, -12/+2I had never heard of "Albatross" in golf.
    • Barzillai, on 10/11/2007, -8/+1I wonder if an Ostrich is possible in this game?
    • daschupa, on 10/11/2007, -8/+1I'm not sure an albatross is the best choice of bird to use for a hole in one. That should be regulated for my real golf score, a +5.
    • retral, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1An Albatross is -3.. a hole in one is a hole in one.
  • redrock34, on 10/11/2007, -0/+51That cat does not look healthy.
    • leftnut, on 10/11/2007, -2/+17Joint problems and serious whiplash injuries.
    • sneakeykop, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0It's his last Hooray...before he is cooked and eaten at Restaurant here in NYC.
  • startimeash, on 10/11/2007, -1/+28It's things like this that make me remember why I love Digg :-)
    • glenruben, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2hah yeah, I doubt this is something I would ever have come across on my own... and it's so brilliant :D
  • TheLoneWolf071, on 10/11/2007, -26/+2Very Fun Game. Wish in English, But no words, so it's ok. A little short, but very good game
    • Eastlygod, on 10/11/2007, -1/+28What do you wish for in English?
    • NatieB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+13From the game XCats on the same site:
      X key ... Front frip
      Z key ... Back frip
      Gotta love it.
    • Mac2492, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4Your speaking. Very fragmented.
  • maisteri, on 10/11/2007, -3/+18Dugg for using 'addictive' instead of 'addicting' in the title
  • paechan, on 10/11/2007, -3/+12+17

    this game rocks
    • dbug, on 10/11/2007, -0/+18You're aware of the fact that a higher score = you sucked more right?
    • ragipy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2the game rocks but apparently you don't
  • Regulator980, on 10/11/2007, -6/+2"Sorry for using "addictive" in the title, but in this case, it's true.... "

    I don't know whether to bury you for using the word "addictive" or digg you because it's true...
  • Tallon29, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2-13 on second try. Fun times.
  • tdotn, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1The idea of this game would make an awesome spiderman game.
    • rsibayan, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0try "double wires" on the right hand side of the page. v spider-manesque
  • KineticShampoo, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2A tip:

    Shoot the arrow and the click your cat in mid-air. Aim the arrow while falling beside the target.
  • SatNav, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12great concept for a game. it reminds me of flying about on ninja ropes in worms armageddon
  • Lionhart, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1-13 :D
  • graphicpush, on 10/11/2007, -9/+1Why is every f'ing game posted to Digg "addictive"?
  • TheKorn2, on 10/11/2007, -10/+1Fun in what way? The first levels are easy, then it degrades into impossibly lucky shots. Might as well play a lottery simulator instead.
    • TheKorn2, on 10/11/2007, -3/+3Once you figure out how this game works it's even ***** than if you have no idea how to play.
  • Otto, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2-10 on my first try. It's a little too easy once you know that you can fire in mid-air. Still, unique idea and fun game.
  • osarhan, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4ah the japanese!
  • fadetoone, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2-11 on first try, I got a drop out on one of the last ones, not realizing you lose if you fall below the red line...
  • moft, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0dofi-blog rulz
  • techsmack, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4Too addicting, I'm going to get fired.
  • Dunadan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4Maybe it's just me but the text on the page is all question marks, and I can't find the instructions anywhere. Would someone mind telling me the controls?
    • wesl56, on 10/11/2007, -6/+1just click around with the mouse lol its not hard
    • miggie, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Dunadan put the pointer on the mouse and hold down the left mouse button. Pull back with the button held down and let go. :-p
    • Arcesius, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2click on the kitty... hold down the button and pull back in the opposite direction of where you want to shoot... release when you think you have a good trajectory/speed... kitty will follow the arrow after you shoot...
  • jiggawoot, on 10/11/2007, -3/+8Anyone care to enlighten me of the controls? I tried the arrows, the space bar, then went with the keyboard mash, nothing seems to happen....
  • icu_, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1-12 on first try. Needs more courses - http://blog2.fc2.com/i/ishi/file/igt.swf

    I love bow-based games. Bowmaster - the balloon popping game etc. I love the concept - straight out of Loony Tunes.
  • TechLee, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Click on the cat, then hold the button and pull back. You should be able to aim and control power from there.
  • AlMightyBob90, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2+14 *insert my avatar here*
  • Hynuk, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Just click and drag on the cat. The further you pull away, the more power. You can do this in mid-air.
  • jeffiscool, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Maybe I'm completely blind, but where are the targets for which I have to aim?
    • TechLee, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3If you click on the eye in the corner, it'll show you the map for the course. Just aim in that general direction and you'll get there eventually.
  • Cheddar79, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5superb game...focuses more on gameplay than graphics...consoles could learn a thing or two here.
  • Bigworrm, on 10/11/2007, -3/+27i just got fired because i got caught playing this game
    • crash999, on 10/11/2007, -2/+24Look on the bright side- now you can play full-time!
  • Rapster, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2awesome game... am sick of those warcraft type games called power defense etc etc... something different atlast....
  • lukehh, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2my cat went outside the box
  • spikyface, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2AWESOME GAME!!

    Just click on the cat and drag it in any direction to catapult it
  • mlvassallo, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4ALBATROSS!
  • solemnraven, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3+58....I'm horrible at this game. still like it though.
  • unique172, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0-25 after too many tries. Must...stop...now...
  • javij, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0-17 good times
  • jmk81, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0AB SO LUTELY!!
  • voyetra8, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2ZOMG!!!! CLICK THE EYE IN THE TOP LEFT TO ZOOM OUT!!!!!
  • Barzillai, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0-21 on second try. On a few courses if your cat is on a thin strip of ground you can shoot through the ground at the target or at more ground and the cat gets pulled through. Helps get Condors.
  • dafool, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2My best score was only -10
    • Spuy767, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2's ok, I tallied it up, and my score was actually -52, but the game calculated it as -10, I don't get it.
    • kuwan, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Yeah, same here, the score for my first game was +30 but should have been under par. So I tallied up my second game and it was -25 but the score the game gave me was only -6. Definitely some math errors.
    • Gamer2k4, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Well, you get +19 for falling...did you forget to add in a fall?
    • Kauzman01, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1-40 is good, i think. I hope thats decent cause thats what i got my first try.
  • Spuy767, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Game is fun, but broken, I got nothing less than an eagle on every hole, and it said I had a +6 final score.
    • Spuy767, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Again, Math errors, I scored none over par, and the last hole got -5, somehow, my total score was only -9.
  • Trinitrogen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8"Cat With Bow Golf"

    Thats the most un-japanese title for a game I've ever read. I woulda guessed Archery Cat Spirit X or something like that.

    Great game though.
  • steveyu85, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1how to play? I am puzzled ( cos I don't speak japanese )
    • Spuy767, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3Speaking japanese is not a requirement to play this game, if you can't figure it out, you may want to go have your basic cognitive skills tested instead.
  • FrostyITRadio, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3How to play:

    Click on Cat, drag in opposite direction of the direction that you want the arrow to go. Length of drag = power, and hit the target.

    It is a very addictive game.
  • trixyfox, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1+ 11 first round, -15 second round, this game is pretty awesome though
  • esuedp, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1I can't stop playing, I can't get in the -20's yet though, -18 is the best i have got, hole in one's are awesome

    I should get back to revising, thing is flying cats seem more interesting than engineering at the moment
  • digmc, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Cool Game. I got a score of 82 on first try, but it could be because of the levels I got.

    This one is definitely going on my hidden bookmarks at work :-)

    G++
