Pavolia Reine, Anya Melfissa and Kureiji Ollie Clear Five Levels of New BOMBANANA! Map
The three returned to the cooperative bomb game after two weeks away and found its level order rebuilt around a new map.
HOLOLIVE — Pavolia Reine played the cooperative bomb game BOMBANANA! with Anya Melfissa and Kureiji Ollie on Wednesday, working through five levels of a new airplane map in a stream that ran about 98 minutes.
The group had last played about two weeks earlier, when they cleared levels up to 15. This time the game stopped them at level 15 and pointed them to an update that added the airplane map, which replaced the old level order. One of the participants said the map was reported to be hard, and the group chose it. Several modules were new to them, including a button module in which players press each colored button a set number of times, and they spent the opening stretch trying to work out what they were looking at.
The game splits the players into roles: one reads the manual, one can hear but not see, one can see but not hear. The three rotated through the roles, and the Simon-style color module and the maze caused the most trouble. A maze attempt reset about 79 minutes in, when the player on the controls could not follow the guide’s progress, and another reset followed minutes later. They then agreed to read out directions three at a time, and the next attempt got through the maze. Earlier they had also settled on skipping the explanation of the Simon module’s fixed color order, and on reading out the full sequence at once.
Each cleared level earned in-game money, which the players spent on outfits for their characters. The fifth level ended with a shout of celebration and a round of praise for the new modules. They agreed the map was fun, and that they expected about ten more levels on it, followed by an endless mode.
Chat greeted the stream with the “Holoro” shorthand used for the Indonesian second generation, and viewers cheered the maze clear and the group’s rotation of roles.
