Time Attack (2005 video game)/Gamemodes

Story
The Story mode is the primary part of the game. In this mode, the player goes through 16 stages as Tesla, Curtis, Izzy, or Mario. There are a total of 4 bosses. After beating the Story mode, the player would be able to play the stages and bosses in the Arcade modes.

Arcade
The Arcade mode is where the player can choose not just the four Story characters, but any character they have met so far in the game.

Classic
The player can replay stages they have cleared in the Story mode.

Hardcore
Like Classic mode, the player can replay stages they cleared, but this time, the enemies are unforgiving, the stages are harder, and you only have one life.

Missions
The player must complete missions on a stage in order to complete it. Each stage has 5 missions, which can be played in any order. They will be rewarded a random piece of bonus media that can be accessed in the Museum.

Mission 1: Collect 100 Saturnium fragments!

Mission 2: Defeat 50 enemies!

Mission 3: Complete the stage within (finite number) minutes!

Mission 4: Complete the stage unscathed!

Mission 5: Complete the stage in Hardcore mode!

Racing
A multiplayer game where up to 4 players can race each other to the end of the stage in the fastest possible.

Survival
In solo mode player runs on an endless stage, trying to avoid obstacles for the highest score possible. In multiplayer mode, up to 4 players must stay alive as long as possible. The game ends when there is one player standing.

Relay
A multiplayer mode where at least two players are assigned to the four Story mode characters, and must work together in order to make it to the end of the stage.

Museum
The player can view various bonus mediums they collected throughout the Story. These mediums include concept art, music, characters, cutscenes, places, and even deleted content of the game.

Unlike a typical media gallery, the Museum is actually a stage in the game. Going to this mode loads a museum-like stage, in a first-person 3D perspective, where player can freely walk around. The museum is divided into 4 areas: the characters, the artwork (including concept art and music), locations, and cutscenes.

Characters
"These are statues of characters that the Tesla Hunt have met. We have only received some of these statues, so please come back later when we have more."
