FAQs

Does TENGAI support online multiplayer?

No, this port focuses on local co-op gameplay mirroring the original arcade cabinet experience.

Can I use a fight stick for this game?

Yes, TENGAI is fully compatible with most standard PC-compatible arcade sticks and controllers.

How do the randomized levels work?

Upon starting a new game, the engine selects the stage order procedurally, meaning the difficulty and environment of your early levels will vary.

Is there a way to save my progress mid-level?

The game follows classic arcade logic, meaning you must complete the run or use continues; there are no mid-stage save points.

What are Psikyo Bullets?

They are the signature fast, complex bullet patterns fired by enemies and bosses, known for their precision and high difficulty.

Is this game compatible with high-resolution monitors?

Yes, but the game will likely display in its original aspect ratio with borders to maintain the integrity of the arcade visual design.

Troubleshooting

Game won't launch on Windows 10/11

Verify the game files via the Steam or launcher library and ensure you have the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributables installed.

Controller not recognized

Ensure your controller is plugged in before the game starts and check the 'Controller Configuration' menu to bind your inputs.

Input lag or delayed response

Disable any unnecessary background applications and ensure your monitor is set to 'Game Mode' if using a television.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best experience, ensure your controller is connected before launching the game, as TENGAI is optimized for arcade-style fight sticks or D-pad controllers.

  1. Compatibility: The game supports Windows environments; ensure your DirectX drivers are updated to the latest version.
  2. Controls: Navigate to the options menu immediately upon launch to remap buttons to your preferred layout.
