In case the recently reviewed Japanese shooter featuring Tofu enemies wasn't enough for you, the wonderful folks from that lovable place called Japan have brought you something equally as impressive.

This cat is having a hard time, you see. Firstly, it's only a head with a couple of flying arms. As if that wasn't tough enough, there are flying sea creatures out to kill the cat! Oh, no! Whatever shall he do?

Well, the answer is fight back. In this game, the cat has no attack mode. Only the ability to grab enemies out of the sky and hold them. He can then throw the enemies back. Successfully colliding one enemy with another harms or kills the enemy. Strategy comes when bigger enemies display resistance to the smaller hits.

Its a neat idea and its pulled off surprisingly well - the passive shooter. The enemies which fire at you can sometimes be held for a short time and used as weapons of your own. Crates smash through nearly everything and the bosses - while dangerous - are cute as a button.

In short, its another fantastic game from those odd-balls in Japan. It's only down side is its length, at only three levels. But they do, quite certainly, pack a punch.
