How to Play Spiral Wave
Quick start
Read the mission on the mothership, select a destination or command with the directional pad and confirm with I. In combat use I to fire, and use II RETURN before energy becomes critical; clearing every enemy is not required to move on.
Controls
Mothership: use the directional pad for command selection, I to confirm, II to change, and RUN to pause or adjust dialogue speed. Flight sections: directions steer, I fires, II uses RETURN to return temporarily to the mothership, and RUN pauses.
