Shield-Folk World (猫耳, Cat Ear) is one of the 12 original locations accessible directly from the Nexus. This world is named after the Shield Folk that inhabit it, fluorescent decorative characters that cannot be interacted with in any way. They can be seen standing alone or in groups around the area and can act as landmarks. The floor is also dotted with strange moving lights that resemble eyes and make sounds when stepped on, similar to the tiles in Graffiti World.
There is a parallax background that looks like some sort of Mesoamerican creature, similar to the Aztec Rave Monkey in the backgrounds of Forest World and Block World.
The music consists of what sounds like a xylophone being played, creating a sense of wonder as the player explores the world.
Points of Interest
The Cat effect is received here by interacting with Nekoin, who can be found near a group of red-faced Shield Folk northwest of the entrance when the world is first entered. It will spin and move around the world randomly, making it a bit difficult to locate. Near the center of the map, surrounded by a few animated tiles, there is a black gate that leads the player to the Static Maze that serves as the route to the FC House. Other than that, the world itself consists of many lone Shield-Folk and more arrangements of tiles.
Trivia
- In older versions of the game, there was an additional gate present that led to the Checkered Tile Path, which would be moved to other locations later on. Interestingly, the location shared its music with that of Shield-Folk World in these previous versions.
