Basic Movement
Movement in Eagle Island Twist follows a simple left and right horizontal scheme. When you run either way and suddenly change direction, your character will do a brief slide, then start running in that new direction.
Jumping & Grabbing
Jumping allows Quill and Fia to reach higher areas normally out of reach, which could allow them to grab onto a ledge and further access what was once inaccessible at lower heights. Certain runestones can further increase their jump height, along with being able to evade incoming projectiles and special enemy types.
Aiming
Quill and Fia utilize a multi-directional aim. However, their range to throw Koji/Kusako respectively is limited without the proper runestone! Players can take advantage of this directional aim to hit enemies beyond narrow pathways, traveling midair by hitting enemy to enemy, or to get a good angle to eliminate multiple enemies at once.
Attacking with different Elements and Maintaining Manaroc
Quill and Fia can attack by launching their flying companions at targets. Each owl can imbue itself with elemental powers to increase their potency and utility across different levels.
Below are just some of the many elemental forms you can have Koji or Kusako change into!

Switching between Elements Koji and Kusako are able to switch between multiple element types, increasing their potency and utility across different levels. Knowing when to use the Magira type over the Icora type could prove essential to defeating certain enemies, as well as maintaining your manarocs.

Quill's arsenal of solo moves consists simply of running, jumping and the occasional ledge grab - the game keeps to its classic 16-bit inspiration. Launch attacks with Koji in 8 directions using the D-pad-like aiming controls. Hit enemies in quick succession to earn greater rewards from combos. Miss an attack and you'll be forced to wait longer for Koji to return. If Koji is attacked or captured, Quill will be briefly defenceless and must take evasive action whilst vulnerable!
