Letting go launches him off in a given direction, dependent on the time of release. Additionally, 'Star Handles' are placed in levels, where the player must have Ristar grab and use momentum to swing him around in a 360 degrees circle. Ristar is also able to grab on to enemies and objects in mid-air and swing on them. Many pole-like structures are present to swing Ristar from one side to another, across gaps or to ascend or descend platforms vertically. īeyond attacking, Ristar's arms are also used as a method of projecting him through levels. Additionally, his elastic arms can merely be used for grabbing and/or throwing objects as well. The same motion also allows for opening treasure chests containing various items, or striking different parts of the environment, such as knocking trees over. Ristar's extendable arms are used as the main means of attacking enemies through extending his arms, grabbing the enemy, and pulling himself towards them into a ' headbutt' motion to defeat them. The player must maneuver Ristar through the level to its end, while avoiding damage from obstacles and enemies. Ristar is a 2D sidescrolling platform game, similar to games in the Super Mario or Sonic the Hedgehog series of video games, but focusing less on jumping and speed, and more on the use of Ristar's stretchable arms, which can reach in 8 different main directions.
