Global Warning

Global Warning

Global Warning is the boss microgame found in the Total Drag stage in WarioWare: Touched! The name is a pun on the term "Global Warming".

Gameplay

The objective of the game is to drag the Earth through an obstacle course in space. First, pairs of watermelon-like planets will fire several small ammo at Earth, which it must avoid. Some comets will fly in after, and then the player must capture a stranded astronaut(which is being blocked by some giant asteroids) in the earth's gravity. This will allow what appears to be the moon to orbit the earth and shoot small beams. The player must use these to shoot down attacking planets, which shoot great quantities of ammo. if the Earth gets hit once, the player loses.

• 1st level difficulty: The planets at the beginning will shoot easy-to-avoid formations of ammo, and easy-to-avoid comets will slowly fly in. The astronaut is being blocked by two asteroids, which can easily be avoided, and they must simply shoot down the enemy planet and another small orbiting planet while being attacked with simple formations of ammo.
• 2nd level difficulty: Changes from Level 1 to this level include quicker comets and enemy ammo, the astronaut being blocked by three easy-to-avoid asteroids instead of two, and an extra, bigger planet along with the enemy planet, with the more difficult ammo formations.
• 3rd level difficulty: The comets and enemy ammo fly in very difficult-to-avoid formations at a great speed, the astronaut is being blocked by three difficult-to-avoid asteroids, and there is an extra planet resembling Saturn with the enemy planet. They all shoot extreme quantities of ammo that require great dodging skills.

The player must score 7 points or more to clear the microgame.
