Phelios/Gameplay

Controls

 * Joystick: Use the 8-way joystick to direct Apollo and his winged horse Pegasus around the screen. They are always moving forward, but you can direct them anywhere.
 * Firing Button: Use this button to make Apollo fire shots from his sword at the enemies. Pressing it lightly will make the sword fire a tiny shot; however, holding it down charges the sword, and upon releasing the button the sword shoots a bigger fireball. Even the smallest enemies take multiple hits, so the standard shot is of little use.
 * 1 or 2 Player Buttons: Push these buttons to begin a 1 or 2 player game.

Apollo (アポロー)
The protagonist of the game. Mounted on the back of his legendary winged horse Pegasus, he is on a mission to save his lover and twin sister Artemis from the clutches of Typhon. He can take up to four hits before dying (depending on what the arcade owner has set the "Life" option in the dip switch menu to), and can have up to four shots on the screen simultaneously (depending onn how many "O" powerups he has collected). However, if he is crushed against a wall or flies into one while at high speed, the impact will kill him instantly. He will also receive an extra life at every 50,000 points, but this setting cann be modified.

Item Flies (アイテムフライズ)
When one of these enemies is killed, he will leave a powerup behind and announce its name in Japanese. Each of the powerups has a different letter on it:
 * S: Speed up. This one will inncrease the flying speed of Peggasus for a short period of time.
 * O: Option. This one will cause a beam to appear adjacent to the right side of Apollo's sword, which allows him to have two shots on the screen simultaneously. Up to three of these beams can be adjacent to Apollo's sword at any givenn time, which means that he cann have a maximum of four shots on the screen simultaneously.
 * B: Beam. This one will allow Apollo to fire enormous beams from his sword for a short period of time.
 * A: Across. This one will allow Apollo to fire boommerrangs from his sword for a short period of time.
 * H: Homing. This one will allow Apollo to fire homing shots from his sword for a short period of time.
 * L: Life. This one will restore one of Apollo's lost life-hearts in the bottom-right corner of the screen.
 * P-H-E-L-I-O-S: These ones are only present on the seventh stage. When an item capsule (which looks like an orange bubble) is destroyed, it will leave either one of these or a bonus powerup (whose value can range from 50 to 5000 points) behind. All seven of them must be collected inn order to upgrade Apollo's charged shot, which is vital for the final battle with Typhon as he can only be injured by these upgraded charged shots; and if you miss any of them, you will have to crush yourself.
