Dragon Saber/Gameplay

Controls

 * Joystick: Use the 8-way joystick to direct Huey the Blue Dragon (or Siria the Red Dragon if you're player 2) around the screen. They are always moving forward, but you can direct them anywhere.

 * 1 or 2 Player Buttons: Push these buttons to begin the game as player 1 or player 2.

Huey and Siria


The protagonists of the game. At the start of the game, they hold their sacred saber up to the sky, which gets struck by lightning and transforms them into the blue and red dragons. They can take up to four hits without dying, and have up to three heads.

Powerups

 * Blue Egg: When this is bombed, a blue ball will fly out. If you obtain it, Huey (or Siria) will grow another head. Obtain another when Huey (or Siria) already have two heads and they will grow a third head. When Huey (or Siria) are hit with multiple heads, they lose one of them.
 * Red Egg: When this is bombed, a red ball will fly out. Obtain three in order to get level 2 flames. Obtain three more when Huey (or Siria) already have level 2 flames and they will get level 3 flames, but when they are hit with level 3 flames, they will be reduced back to level 2 flames and if they are hit with level 2 flames, they will be reduced to normal flames.
 * Fire Ball: When an orange egg is bombed, one of these will fly out. If you obtain it, Huey (or Siria) will turn orange and breathe flames similar to anti-aircraft fire.
 * Axe Ball: When a green egg is bombed, one of these will fly out. If you obtain it, Huey (or Siria) will turn green and be able to breathe flames at a cutting angle.
 * Spark Ball: When a black egg is bombed, one of these will fly out. If you obtain it, Huey (or Siria) will turn black and be able to breathe sparks instead of flames.
 * Steel Ball: When a white ball is bombed, one of these will fly out. If you obtain it, Huey (or Siria) will turn white and be able to breathe flames that will home in on the enemies.
 * Small Dragon: When this is obtained, Huey (or Siria) will shrink in size, but if they are hit, they will return to their normal size.
 * Power Wing: When this is obtained, Huey (or Siria) will become temporarily invincible. Any enemies flying into them will be instantly killed.
 * Jewel: Obtaining this will give you 1000 extra points.
 * Anti: If you see this one, avoid it at all costs. Obtaining it equals a hit.
