GETTING STARTED
Set up your PlayStation™ game console according to the instructions in its Instruction Manual. Make sure the power is off before inserting or removing a compact disc.
Insert the PROJECT: HORNED OWL™ disc and close the CD door. Insert game controllers and turn on the PlayStation™ game console.
To skip the opening demo, press any button. The game will begin at the Title Screen.
GAME MODES
1 PLAYER MODE
Choose this to play alone. Select your character first, then your difficulty level.
2 PLAYER MODE
Choose this to play with a friend. Each player can use either a PlayStation Controller, Konami ENFORCER™ Gun, or PlayStation Mouse.
DIFFICULTY SETTING
You can choose from 4 difficulty levels: EASY, NORMAL, HARD, and VERY HARD. On EASY mode, you only take on the first two missions.
As the difficulty levels increase, the number of enemies, the damage inflicted, and the boss's stamina and bullet supply increase. The number of enemies and the strength of boss enemies also increase when you choose simultaneous 2 Player Mode as opposed to 1 Player Mode. Try winning the game at a difficulty level above NORMAL!
TRAINING MODE
This is where you practice shooting before you set out on your missions. The idea is to shoot a given number of enemies within a time limit.
You will see a total of 50 Termes enemy characters appear on the screen. You must shoot them down before they shoot back. You lose a point for each shot you receive.
The amount of enemy characters shot down and the hits you receive will be displayed at the end of each game together with your technical ability score. The maximum technical ability score is 200 points. You will notice that the enemy characters will appear in a pattern, so try to follow them to obtain higher scores.
