------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------[TWINKLE STAR SPRITES: LA PETITE PRINCESSE]--------------- -----------------------------------[Playstation 2]----------------------------- --------------------------------[by Ice Queen Zero]---------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- o---------------------o INTRODUCTION o---------------------o This game was only released in Japan for the PS2 because at the time SCEA had a grudge against 2D games outside of bundle packs at the time but it wouldn't have been an issue today due to the PSN store. It is the sequel to the game Twinkle Star Sprites. o---------------------o GAME o---------------------o There are three modes: Story mode, Character mode, and Vs. Mode. In story mode, you play as Time Buttermint and you battle your way through five random opponents then face Mikoto in the final stage. There are funny little cutscenes in between stages and since we don't know Japanese well, we can't make a script out of the cutscenes in this FAQ. Sorry! :( Character Mode is almost the same as Story mode except you can play as any of the other characters as well. You may notice three blanks spots at the start but complete Story Mode to unlock them. Vs mode is self explanatory as you and another player can go head to head in an all out battle. You need two DUal Shock controllers through to play. o---------------------o OPTIONS o---------------------o Game Lvel: 1 to 5 (1 easiest, 5 hardest) Player: 1 to 5 lives Vs Round: Best of 1,3, or 5 Slow Mode: Toggle on or off Vibration, Demo Voice, Auto Save: ditto Sound: Mono or Stereo Key Assign: Assign buttons Save and load: duh!

You will be able to go online with KDDI and challenge other players online to a game of Twinkle Star Sprites La Petite Princesse provided that you live in Japan preferably. o---------------------o GALLERY o---------------------o There are two options here: Graphic and Sound ~Graphic: View up to 38 pictures~ 1-7: Beta drewings of the attacking partner 8-18: Beta drawings of characters 19-37: special drawing 38: Hidden until unlocked ~Sound: There is music you hear in the game. 26 in all.

Discouraged (2) o---------------------o GAMEPLAY o---------------------o There are 5 kinds of attacks: normal, extra, death, boss, and reversal Normal Attack: Defeated enemies are turned into fireballs that attack the opponent Reversal Attack: If you are attack, shoot the fireballs to send them back at your opponent Extra Attack: After a series of reversals, the fireballs turn into the player's extra attack partner clones and attack the opponent in different patters that depend on the character Boss Attack: If the lower guage is filled and the player launches a complete charge shot, then the partner, appears in the opponent field in an enormous size. It can be destroyed with enough shots but its attacks are deadly. Death: Grim Reapers randomly appear and touching them equals instant death to the one who touches it but destroying it kills all onscreen enemies. As you fight through waves of enemies, there is a ball that appears and if you grab it, you'll go into fever mode. This allows you to move much faster and build up for a boss attack. Get your opponen't heart meter to zero and you win the match and in character or story mode, you proceed to the next round. Lose a match and you lose a life. Win the match and your score is tallied by the time you took to win and the number of maximum chain hits. o---------------------o MEET THE CAST o---------------------o Each character is classified by speed, shot, type, extra attack, and boss attack.
