Play Moeyo Gonta!! Online

Konami released Moeyo Gonta!! in arcades back in 1993, a time when side-scrolling action games were common sights in dimly lit game centers. It fits right into that era of straightforward, energetic titles designed to grab your attention and your coins, offering a familiar but frantic take on the genre.

You control Gonta, a young swordsman who automatically runs forward through each stage, leaving you to focus on jumping and attacking the stream of enemies that pour in from both sides of the screen. The main goal is simply to survive each stage and defeat the boss waiting at the end, but the constant forward momentum means you can't stop to plan your moves. Your primary actions are slashing with your sword and using a screen-clearing bomb when things get too crowded; the real challenge comes from managing the crowds that quickly surround you, since getting hit just once means losing a life. It feels like a controlled scramble, where success depends entirely on quick reflexes and memorizing enemy patterns.
