You're free to use this guide for personal use, and if you feel like reproducing it elsewhere, ask for permission first (it's common courtesy) or else I'll turn you into a tree! Who knows. Revision History ----------------- v1.29 - Corrected the Super Jump motion v1.28 - Added the Giant Bat attack and info about the mid-air Reverse v1.25 - Finished the Collection section - Corrected and added some things v1.20 - Started and finished the Cheat Codes section - Nearly finished the Collection section - Finished the Enemies and Mini-games section v0.65 - Almost finished the Challenge Mode section - Finished half of the sections - Started the FAQ ---------------- |1. Introduction | ---------------- This game is based on Ueki No Housoku (Law of Ueki), an anime (and manga) series (which I never knew until I saw this game, I must admit) about a boy that gets granted the power to turn garbage into trees, and must then engage in a battle to become the next "god". As for the game, it's a 2D fighter with a lot of moves (it's a pity you only get to control Ueki). Let's go! ---------- |2. Basics | ---------- Down: Guard (can guard in mid-air) Forward, Forward: Run A : Jump Up + A: Super Jump B : Attack Up + B: Wood Thrust attack Down + B: Rising Wood attack Air, Down + B: Jumping Hammer attack L + B: Giant Bat attack L : Used for Special Moves (see Moves section) R : Used for Super Moves (see Moves section) These 5 gauges under the life gauge are called "memories", and are used to perform special or super attacks (as usual). Pressing the attack button 3 times will trigger a basic combo, and you can cancel this combo into any of the normal attacks (i.e. 'Wood Thrust', that actually is a good combo finisher). The Jumping Hammer attack, if it hits the enemy, will stop the enemy on his tracks and make him bounce defenselessly against the floor. Then, you can juggle in some hit (or even a Super Move if you time it right, in some cases). The Giant Bat attack can be used to repel thrown objects, and will send the enemy flying into the air if it hits him. -------------- |3. Game modes | -------------- Story Mode ----------- In this mode you'll fight some enemies following the anime's story, gaining moves, minigames and cards for you collection. On each fight, depending on how you fight your enemy, you'll get some bonus points, that will add together to form a rank. The higher the rank, the rarest the cards you'll get. After you defeat an enemy in this mode, you can fight against him anytime you want in Challenge mode. Challenge Mode (not available at first) --------------- Here you can fight any enemy you have unlocked previously, to get a better rank (and then, new cards). Minigames (not available at first) ---------- Here you can play any of the minigames you have unlocked (see Minigames section). Collection ----------- Here you can see all the cards you've got (see Collection section). Option ------- Here you can adjust the game's difficulty, listen to the game's BGM (not available at first) and delete all your save data. --------- |4. Moves | --------- As you beat the enemies in Story/Challenge Mode, you'll get different moves for Ueki. Their real name are 'Jingis', but I won't be using that name much because there ARE differences between Special and Super Moves: -Performing a Super Move triggers full-screen pictures of the attack -Two bonuses after the battle ('Only One SM' and 'SM Finish') can't be gotten by Special Moves (i.e. 'Fuudo' or 'Reverse'). Here they are: Special Moves -------------- Name: Fuudo Command: Down + L + B Desc: A giant wood arm covered in metal punches upwards (also, defends him for a little amount of time) Cost: 1/2 memory Name: Raika Command: L + A Desc: Slides quickly forward (passing by enemies and/or thrown objects) Cost: 1/4 memory Name: Seikuu Command: Air, L + A Desc: Flies quickly forward (passing by enemies and/or thrown objects) Cost: 1/4 memory Name: LV 2 Reverse Command: Up + L + B Desc: Ueki concentrates and, if a enemy or a thrown object gets close to him, rises a shield that repels them. Can be used in mid-air Cost: 1/4 memory Super Moves ------------ Name: Kurogane Command: R + B Desc: Ukei makes a cannon from wood and fires a wood ball.

You can seize the opportunity to attack him freely Cost: 3 memories Name: Namihana Command: Up + L + R + B Desc: Ueki summons a large tentacle-shaped flower that attacks back and forth Cost: 3 memories Name: Maou Command: Hold L + R till you flash, then B Desc: Ueki fires a spiritual projection of Kobasen, his teacher, which will fly towards the end of the screen (hitting the enemy) and explode there Cost: 5 memories ------------------ |5.
