Medicine Pop

The main character Medicine Melancholy must traverse a series of single-screen mazes. She is capable of walking on floors or ceilings but not walls. She can climb steps and traverse high walls by extending her legs until she is tall enough to pass onto the next step.

She is capable of throwing hand grenades to her left or right which, after a short period, explode into a cloud of smoke. Separate fire buttons control rolling to the left (B button) or right (A button). The player is killed if caught by the explosion cloud.

Each screen is played against a time limit, marked by the character walking along the top of the screen.

Melancholy's aim is to reach the top of the screen before the time limit expires. She is delayed in this process by a series of solid walls. In order to get past the walls, she must free her partner from cages using her hand grenades.

A further obstruction comes in the form of the enemy Yamame Kurodani hatching from eggs. Hand grenades can also be used to destroy the enemies or the eggs producing them (however, the player will get bonus points after completing the level for not destroying any enemies).

Later levels include moving platforms and water bottles that when blown up flood the level with water. The water does not destroy anything or in any way inhibit the movement of the enemies, but it allows Melancholy to swim to otherwise unreachable platforms.
