Important Health Warning About Playing Video Games

Photosensitive seizures

A very small percentage of people may experience a seizure when exposed to certain

visualimages,includingashinglightsorpatternsthatmayappearinvideogames.

Even people who have no history of seizures or epilepsy may have an undiagnosed
condition that can cause these “photosensitive epileptic seizures” while watching
video games.

These seizures may have a variety of symptoms, including lightheadedness, altered
vision, eye or face twitching, jerking or shaking of arms or legs, disorientation,
confusion, or momentary loss of awareness. Seizures may also cause loss of
consciousness or convulsions that can lead to injury from falling down or striking
nearby objects.

Immediately stop playing and consult a doctor if you experience any of these
symptoms. Parents should watch for or ask their children about the above symptoms—
children and teenagers are more likely than adults to experience these seizures. The risk
of photosensitive epileptic seizures may be reduced by taking the following precautions:
Sit farther from the screen; use a smaller screen; play in a well-lit room; do not play
when you are drowsy or fatigued.

If you or any of your relatives have a history of seizures or epilepsy, consult a doctor
before playing.

ESRB Game Ratings

The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) ratings are designed to provide
consumers, especially parents, with concise, impartial guidance about the age­appropriateness and content of computer and video games. This information can
help consumers make informed purchase decisions about which games they deem
suitable for their children and families.

ESRB ratings have two equal parts:

• Rating Symbols suggest age appropriateness for the game. These symbols

appear on the front of virtually every game box available for retail sale or
rental in the United States and Canada.

• Content Descriptors indicate elements in a game that may have triggered a

particular rating and/or may be of interest or concern. The descriptors appear
on the back of the box next to the rating symbol.

Zephyr’s Mission Log: First Entry

Captain Nimbus has decided that it is time for him to step down and hand the reins of
the squad to Zephyr, a young Wind Warrior. Zephyr, and his friends are all Wind Warriors
and it's their universal task to create atmospheres on lifeless planets.

Becoming Captain was going to be the most exciting event of Zephyr's life, but then
he met Omegaton. He was the greatest hero of a strange backwards dimension, which
he described as an anti-matter universe, whatever that is. Omegaton's enemies joined
forces and overpowered him. Omegaton was stripped of his six orbs of power and
banished to our universe.

He would've perished if the Wind Warriors didn't find him. Nimbus realized that
Omegaton needed to absorb positive matter in order to maintain atomic cohesion in
our universe. Without them, Omegaton couldn’t survive. With the approval of Nimbus,
Zephyr gave his rst order. They would nd Omegaton's orbs and help him return home.

Their search took them to Earth, and to their rst big problem: its giant sun. Its radiation
is deadly to their kind, but Omegaton assured them he had a solution. Omegaton gave
them the "lightweight object amalgam device," or L.O.A.D. STARR. The L.O.A.D. STARR
can locate the orbs Omegaton needs and give the Wind Warriors cover from the sun's
deadly UV rays. It can also collect and hold the Fire Flyers.

The Fire Flyers? They're agents of the enemies of Omegaton, and now the Wind Warriors'
enemies too...

HOW TO PLAY &

HUB SCREEN

GAME SCREEN

Fire Flyer: S moky ob jects and sp arks are
indications of Fire Flyers.

Hero: Zephyr a blue spiraling Wind Warrior.
Category Level: Fill up this meter to grow in size.
Score: Multiplier based on captured Fire Flyers.
Fire Flyer Counter: Tracks the number of Fire

Flyers absorbed.
Grabbed Fire Flyers: Shows the number of Fire

Flyers held.
Wobbly Objects: Objects that can be picked up

with the current Category level.

NORMAL STAGES

Start o as a small tornado and pick up little objects from owers to rocks. Keep picking
things up and you will grow in size, allowing you to grab larger objects. Stay clear of
sunlight, since its radiation will hurt you. Try to grow big enough to atten the entire
level and absorb all the Fire Flyers!

Each level is divided into zones. As you complete a zone, you will be given a score and
moved to the next zone. After completing a certain number of zones, Zephyr will have
to go up against the Totems.

GATHERING FIRE FLYERS

Look for sparks and smoke coming from the bottom of certain objects in a level to nd a
Fire Flyer. Expose the Fire Flyers by running over the object they are hiding under. After
they've been exposed, hold to start grabbing Fire Flyers. Release to send them to
the L.O.A.D. STARR.

STORM GATES/VORTEX RACE

Before starting a Totem Battle, you have to create a large tornado. Storm gates allow
Zephyr to build the ultimate storm. Stay in the gates as you travel around the level and
you will continue to gain speed. Miss a gate and they will start to shrink. Catch up to
Nimbus to nalize the tornado.

Use caution, as sometimes the Fire Flyers will sneak into the Storm gates. If the Storm
gate is orange with fire, press to absorb them. If you forget and are hit with the
resultant blast, your speed will decrease.

TOTEM BATTLES

Work your way through the maze of passing clouds while staying in the shade. If
you’re caught in the sunlight, you will lose one of the Wind Warriors protecting you.
Once you get to the Totems, you will enter battle mode. When the Totem opens one of
its gates, use the left stick to point towards the open gate. Zephyr will get very close
to the gate. Hold the left stick in that direction and tap rapidly until the Totem's
head is destroyed.

Later on, the Totems will begin to defend themselves by shooting reballs. If one of
these reballs hits you while approaching a Totem, it will take out one of your Wind
Warriors. Defend against the reballs by holding . Zephyr will defend himself, but

will be saved and displayed after completing a level or selecting a previously completed
one. Completed levels will also display the number of Storm gates missed and total
score for the level.
