Rocket Punch is Dribble & Spitz's boss microgame in WarioWare: Move It!

Gameplay[edit]

The player controls KOM-MODE MK. II, a toilet-themed robot flying through the sky. The player can fire rocket punches by pressing the shoulder or trigger buttons on their Joy-Con controllers. In the first section, the player must defeat all the approaching enemies. Light-blue enemies are stationary, blue enemies fly left and right, and red enemies fly around and stop at certain intervals. Some enemies can fire missiles at the player, who must destroy them with their rocket punches.

After three waves of enemies, the player must hold the controllers in position to recalibrate. The player then faces the boss, who fires missiles at the player with plungers. The player must hit the screws to destroy the boss's force field, then hit the screws that protect its nose. When its nose is exposed, the player must fire punches into its nostrils to blow it up and defeat it. After defeating it, KOM-MODE MK. II poses and flies away in its toilet form.

If the player is hit by either an enemy, a missile, or the boss's sneeze, the robot is destroyed and the player loses.

  • Level 1: The first and second waves include 2 light-blue enemies, and the third wave includes 2 light-blue enemies and a blue enemy. The enemies rarely shoot missiles. The boss's force field is protected by 4 screws, its nose is protected by 2 screws, and it is stationary when its nose is exposed.
  • Level 2: The first wave includes 3 light-blue enemies, the second wave includes 2 light-blue enemies and a red enemy, and the third wave includes 2 blue enemies. The enemies shoot missiles more often. The boss's force field is protected by 6 screws, its nose is protected by 3 screws, and it moves around slightly when its nose is exposed.
  • Level 3: The first wave includes 4 light-blue enemies, the second wave includes 2 light-blue enemies and a blue enemy, and the third wave includes 3 light-blue enemies, a blue enemy, and a red enemy. The enemies shoot missiles often. The boss's force field is protected by 8 screws, its nose is protected by 4 screws, and it moves around erratically when its nose is exposed.

In multiplayer, both players each control a KOM-MODE MK. II, and the bosses' screws take two hits to remove.
