How to Play El Viento
Quick start
Start on Easy and learn Annet's boomerang before spending magic. Stay mobile, jump over low shots, and throw from the edge of enemy range. Collect spell items and use magic against dense groups or bosses rather than single guards. Many stages scroll quickly or add hazards, so move in short advances, watch platforms before jumping, and keep a spell ready for enemies entering from behind.
Controls
D-pad: move, crouch, climb, and aim. A: use the selected magic spell. B: throw Annet's boomerang; repeated presses create a rapid attack. C: jump. Start: pause. Collect spell icons to change or strengthen magic, and combine a direction with jump or attack for angled throws and aerial attacks.
