Normal Beam
When there is a Helper present and Kirby does not have a copy ability, he can press 
to use the Normal Beam. If this beam hits the Helper, it will turn into an Ability Item. If Kirby then swallows this Ability Item, he will regain that ability.
* When Kirby already has a Copy Ability and there is a Helper present, Kirby can press 
to turn his current Copy Ability into an Ability Item.

How to Advance
Control Kirby as he advances through various stages, overcoming enemies and obstacles. Defeat the boss at the end of each stage to advance to the next. When you get hit by enemies or their attacks, you will lose health. If your health reaches 0 or if you fall into a pit, you will lose one life and you may need to start again from the beginning of a stage or your last checkpoint, so be careful.
Game Over
When Kirby’s health reaches 0 and he has no remaining lives, your game will end. You can choose to continue your game from a certain point by selecting the option “Continue,” or you can choose “Quit” to return to the corkboard.
