How to play
In Tengai, players select one of several unique characters to fly through horizontally scrolling stages, battling waves of mythological and mechanical enemies. The core controls consist of an joystick for movement, a standard shot button, and a bomb button. Holding down the shot button charges a powerful character-specific special attack, which is crucial for dealing heavy damage to bosses and clearing tough enemies without wasting resources. Collecting power-up items enhances your primary shot and increases the effectiveness of your charge attacks. To survive the intense bullet hell patterns, focus on micro-dodging while keeping an eye on your character's small hit box. Use your limited bombs defensively to clear the screen of enemy projectiles and grant temporary invincibility when cornered. In the early stages, prioritize memorizing enemy spawn patterns to collect power-ups quickly. During tense boss encounters, cycle between charging your special attack and using bombs strategically to survive complex bullet patterns.
