Gameplay Screenshots

A Japanese garden, sakura blossoms drifting at the edges, lush green grass and flat stones, and a giant blue-purple beetle scuttling across the screen while you take aim with what's literally called a Fly Swatter. Insect Master from YGR is the bug-shooter cousin of the studio's fish arcades, swapping carp and stingrays for moths, beetles, and wasps. The whole thing taps into Japanese kontyū saishū tradition, the childhood pastime of catching insects in summer with a net.

Gameplay is the standard top-down arcade shooter. Bugs crawl and fly across the playfield, you shoot, you collect coins per kill. Small bugs (flies, moths, wasps) pay between x2 and x10 of your shot. Mid-tier targets like centipedes and stag beetles run x12 to x15. Premium catches, the Atlas Moth or Wolf Spider boss fights, push x25 to x70 territory or higher.

Four bosses anchor the game's progression. Atlas Moth with its giant snake-pattern wings, Titan Beetle, Wolf Spider, and the Egyptian-coded Scarab. They appear by room and rotate via boss configurations. Three difficulty rooms scale the bet: Beginner, Expert, Master, with bigger bugs and bigger bosses up the ladder.

Weapons are the hook. Fly Swatter is the signature, theme-perfect, AoE-style swing. Insect Net handles wide capture without burning bet on each shot. Add a basic Target reticle and a Smart Target auto-aim variant and you've got four distinct firing modes plus an Auto-catch mode with priority settings. Multiplayer tables fit four-plus players around a session, real-time bug spawns shared across everyone.

One real downside: RTP isn't published by YGR, so arcade volatility runs whatever the operator configures, typically 92-96%. There's also a Mission System (daily tasks) and a post-boss Roulette bonus wheel hinted at in the language data, but the wheel mechanic isn't fully documented in the demo. Starting bet is a friendly $0.04 per shot, one of the cheapest entry points in the catalogue. Worth a poke if you're into Japanese garden aesthetics or just want to hit a beetle with a swatter for once instead of a sniper rifle.
