Prey the Stars/Abilities

In Prey the Stars, abilities are obtained once the player's character has eaten three objects that share the same elemental property. They can be triggered at any time by tapping the R button once.

This method may alternatively unlock the Morph skill, which turns the player's character into an invincible giant capable of eating anything on the map for a few seconds. Using this ability can make clearing stages a whole lot easier when activated at the right time.

Strategy
When wielding abilities, one must consider how to use them efficiently in order to gain the upper hand. For example, projectile-based abilities are best employed when the target is preoccupied with eating objects. Note that the user's viewing position also affects the trajectory of these attacks. Abilities with wide coverage are far more effective when more than one opponent is standing on the same spot. Due to the game's hectic nature, such an occurrence may happen more than once. In higher difficulty settings, monsters controlled by the AI will often block incoming assaults while moving or standing. This makes using abilities all the more complicated.

In regards to morphing, players are less likely to achieve this feat in every stage unless they prioritize on devouring elemental objects of the same type. The chances of receiving this rare ability are slim unless one wears a skin with the More Form skill. Should a player's character transform into an elemental monster, they must decide whether to pursue the other participants or devour nearby items for extra points. Morphing can also be used together with GABUGABU Time for devastating effect.
