Stick more enemies and become much stronger. Sticky 2D shooter, 'TUMIKI Fighters'.

How to install.

Unpack tf0_2.zip, and execute 'tf.exe'. (If the game is too heavy for your PC, please try 'tf_lowres.bat'. This batch file launches the game in the low resolution mode.)

How to play.
- Movement Arrow / Num / [WASD] / Joystick
- Shot [Z][L-Ctrl][.] / Trigger 1, 4, 5, 8
- Slow/Pull in [X][L-Alt][L-Shift][/] / Trigger 2, 3, 6, 7
- Pause [P]

At the title screen, push a shot key to start the game.

Control your ship and destroy enemies.
You can catch the enemy's broken piece. Pieces are stuck to your ship and counterattack to enemies. You can earn the bonus score by keeping many pieces stuck. Stuck pieces are destroyed when they touch a enemy's bullet.

While holding a slow key, the ship becomes slow and the ship direction is fixed.
Stuck pieces are pulled in and you can prevent a crash of them, but the bonus score reduces to one fifth. Enemy's pieces are not stuck while holding this key.

If you stick many pieces, enemies become more offensive and tend to fire more bullets.

The ship is destroyed when it is hit by a bullet. The body of the enemy has no collision damage.

The ship extends at 200,000 and every 500,000 points.

These options are available:
-brightness n Set the brightness of the screen.(n = 0 - 100, default = 100)

 -res x y       Set ths screen resolution to (x, y).
 -nosound       Stop the sound.
 -window        Launch the game in the window, not use the full-screen.
 -reverse       Reverse the shot key and the slow key.
