How to Play Tetsuwan Atom
Quick start
Press START on the title to begin. First, let's check the basic movements of running left and right, crouching below, jumping with A, and punching with B. You can move to flight by pressing A three times in the "hop, step, jump" manner while turning left and right. Investigate people and stores, collect information, save coins and items, and solve the mysteries of the stage. If uranium is dangerous, you can call the doctor by pressing Up + A, but the doctor's uranium is limited. If you have 10 or more coins when the game is over and you are in stages 2 to 9, you can choose "Continue".
Controls
Cross button left and right: Operation of running/flight direction. Cross button down: Crouch. A: Jump. Left/Right + A: Jump in the direction you press. Press A 3 times with good timing while inserting the left and right sides: Shift to flight (in narrow spaces, it is also possible to fly by alternating the left and right sides). B: Punch. Up + A: Call the doctor and replenish uranium if conditions are met. START: Displays the number of coins and items you have when starting the game/during play. SELECT+B: Pay coins or use matches in the skull maze. In rock-paper-scissors, you start with A, choose your left and right moves, and decide with A.
Tetsuwan Atom — About this game
"Astro Boy" is an action-adventure in which Astro Boy advances through 9 stages to save Serenade and Indra and restore peace to Atlantis. You can't advance just by defeating enemies; you need to get information from people, pay coins at shops to get clues, and solve mazes and tricks. The key to success is the unique operation of pressing the A button three times in a rhythmic manner to begin flight, and the flight time is determined by the TMP meter. Pay attention to both Atom and the uranium that the doctor has, and gather the necessary items and information to overcome difficult points in each region.
