## What is Midnight Ennichi?

The festival where morning never comes. Charge your shot, send the ball bouncing through pins and pockets, and earn enough to pay the festival boss his tribute — or your night ends there. A retro roguelike built on smart ball, the nostalgic pachinko-style pinball once found at every Japanese festival stall.

HOW TO PLAY
- Hold to charge, release to shoot. Land balls in pockets to earn "mon", the old festival coin
- Every 3 nights, the festival boss comes to collect his tribute
- Can't pay? Your night ends there. Balancing what you earn and what you spend is everything

POWER UP AT THE STALLS
- Masks (41 to collect): wear up to 3 at once and watch your earnings soar
- Dagashi snacks: one-shot items for that one clutch ball
- Board tune-ups: add pins, pinwheels and tulips to build a board of your own
- Suspicious omamori charms: immensely powerful — but each one you buy makes the festival grow a little... stranger

FEATURES
- "Just one more night" — an addictive loop of snowballing upgrades
- Lanterns and festival announcements that change as the night deepens
- A mask collection to complete, and two different endings
- Fully offline. No ads, no data collection

If you love ball-bouncing roguelikes and cozy-creepy arcade nights, pull up a stool.

A perfect companion for staying up late. Just don't forget the tribute.

### 3/5 — Bugs

*2026-07-18*

I’m giving it 3, mainly for bugs I stumbled upon. For one, I get a lot of ball returns due to the ball hitting the gap space at the peak of the launch. 

Another thing is that since there’s a gap, one of my balls ended up getting stuck up there and causing a softlock.

There’s also no pause option?

**Developer response:** Thank you for the detailed report - it helped us pinpoint the exact cause. Update 1.2 closes the gap at the top of the launch lane, auto-returns any stuck ball, and adds a pause button. We hope it plays much smoother now!
