Game Description:​

A young witch called Nata de Cotton is hot headed, immature, overreacts and rides on a broomstick, accompanied by a fairy named Silk. Cotton is crazy about candies called “Willows”. But those candies are so good that she won’t let anything get in her way to get them. Talk about sugar cravings! 

Armed with explosive fire power, a cast of cunning enemies to confront and some enchanting and beautiful graphics sees this endearing title as one that enlightens the imagination. Cotton embarks on her journey through the game’s seven amazing colorful stages with the hope that she will be rewarded at the end. As you move through a graveyard with wormed eyeballs or through a forest with trees that are part human form, eyes and mouth, hails of bullets and triple laser fire from Cotton’s latest weapon resource that can be swapped and changed throughout as an endless onslaught of enemies fill the screen with their own arsenal of power. Maneuvering becomes as important as straight shooting.  

Remaster of an iconic “cute’em’up” Cotton Reboot is an updated, remastered version of the classic and iconic “cute’em’up” Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams with brand new features and updated visual designs. The game also features 3 game modes:

X68000 original mode faithfully emulates Sharp’s personal computer from the 1993 version

Arrange mode features 16:9 screens, redesigned graphics and characters

Score attack mode the player competes for scores online within a limited time (2 minute and 5 minute mode can be selected)
