Patapon Overview
You control the Patapon tribe by entering four-beat drum commands with your keyboard. Each command, like "Pata-Pata-Pata-Pon," makes the tribe perform a specific action, such as marching forward or attacking. The main objective is to guide your line of Patapons through side-scrolling levels, defeating enemies and overcoming obstacles to reach the end. The challenge comes from maintaining the rhythm. If your timing slips, your tribe stumbles and becomes vulnerable. The game has a steady, almost hypnotic pace when you're in sync, but it can quickly become frantic if you lose the beat. It feels like conducting a small, determined army through music.
