Story mode (1-2 local players): An explosive adventure where you’ll find yourself fighting invaders and searching for the origin of evil. There’s an endless onslaught of enemies for you to shoot, blast, zap and disintegrate every which way. A cute and charming world with challenging levels full of surprises.

Tournament mode (2-4 local players): A battle experience where you compete with your friends to find out who's the real hero. Deathmatch: Everyone out for themselves. Last beak standing wins. One gun mode: Each player starts with the same randomly chosen weapon which cannot be changed for that round. Drop Hearts mode: A player drops some hearts when he is hurt and he or any other player can collect them. Skull keeper mode: Grab and keep the golden skull without losing it for a certain amount of time and all your opponents will lose 1 HP. Hunting mode: Each player starts with a spear.
