Practice: Difference between revisions

In the ''[[Rhythm Tengoku]]'' version of ''[[Karate Man Returns!|Karate Man]]'', the game's practice starts off by asking the player to hit 3 pots without providing music. After doing so, the next set asks the same thing of the player, however this time the pots are timed to a jingle (which is used again at the very end of the game). After doing so, the real game begins. Interestingly, the "Hit 2!", "Hit 3!" and Flow Meter mechanics are not explained during the practice. [[Karate Man 2 (GBA)|Karate Man 2]] and [[Karate Man Tempo Up!]] do not have practices. [[Karate Man Returns!#Karate Man 2P|Karate Man 2P]] and [[Karate Man 2 (GBA)#Karate Man 2 2P]] both use a non-interactive demonstration instead of a practice. The [[Karate Man|short version of the game]] in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' is also short, being only one set with one pot. It doesn't explain the "Hit 3!" cue which also appears in the game. [[Karate Man Returns!]] does not have a practice.<br />In the ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]'' version of ''[[Karate Man Kicks!|Karate Man]]'', the player first practices a set of pots, ending with a "Hit 3!", with the caption "Tap to punch and send things flying, karate-style!". In the next set, the player must kick without anything flying at them and without any music. The caption reads "After tapping to punch, hold and flick to kick. Try it on your own." After performing four kicks this way, the player moves on to the next set. Here, the player does a set of pots including a barrel with a bomb inside (which unlike the real game has the word "bomb" with an arrow pointing to it) at the end. The caption is "Coping with Bombs When you hear me say "Punch, kick," punch and then kick!". Interestingly, this set starts with no pots flying in, then a lone "Punch, Kick!" voice clip, after which the set starts for real. The next set is comprised of a pot, a "Hit 3!" and two barrels. The caption is "You may have figured this out, but watch out after those lightbulbs." After this set, the real game begins. [[Karate Man 2 (DS)|Karate Man 2]] does not have practice. The ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version of the game shortens it, the only set includes a pot, a lightbulb and a barrel. The caption reads "Press and hold A to break the barrel... Then release A to kick the bomb away!"<br />In the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]'' version of [[Karate Man Combos!|Karate Man]], the practice is played in a similar order to that of ''[[Rhythm Heaven]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s version. It begins with a set of pots ending with a "Hit 3!", the caption reading "Press A to punch the objects flying your way." In the next set, the player is asked to perform a combo five times without any things to punch or music. The caption is "To do a combo, hold A and B, then release." The next set is comprised of a pot, a light bulb and a combo. The caption is "Watch for lightbulbs!" after which, the real game begins. [[Karate Man 2 (Wii)|Karate Man 2]] does not have a practice. Interestingly, the ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]'' version of the game is kept unaltered, aside from the second caption being changed to "Hold B to start the combo, and release to finish." due to changes in controls, and the third caption being changed to "Get ready when you see a light bulb!"<br />The practice for [[Karate Man Senior]] begins with two groups of multiple punches ending with a single rock. The caption is "Press A to punch." The next set is identical to [[Karate Man Kicks!]]'s practice, with the caption "Hold A to punch. → Release to kick! (The yellow light bulb is your cue.)" The next set is the same as [[Karate Man Combos!]]'s practice from the second set onward. The captions are "Hold B to start the combo, and release to finish." and "Hold B to start. → Release to finish. (The blue light bulb is your cue.)" Interestingly, the presence of single pots and the timing for the combos in the practice don't match up to what is present in the real game.
