'''Speed Eaters''' is one of the [[Sub- | '''Speed Eaters''' is one of the [[Sub-Game]]s available from the start of ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]''. Speed Eaters is a sub-game based around anticipation and reaction, and it pits four [[Kirby]]s (pink, yellow, red, green) in a competition to inhale the most food. | ||
A similar Sub-Game was later featured in ''[[Kirby: Squeak Squad]]'', known as [[Speedy Teatime]], and it can be considered as the successor to Speed Eaters. | |||

==Gameplay== | |||
[[File:KatAM Speed Eaters.png|thumb|left|The four Kirbys surrounding the plate.]] | |||
The player only uses the A button in Speed Eaters. The objective is for each Kirby to fill themselves up with food before their opponents do. Their fullness amount is represented by a small icon. The first Kirby to fill their icon wins at the Sub-Game. | |||
== | In Speed Eaters, the four Kirbys are standing around a dinner table, surrounding a dish covered by a silver lid. Each of them are holding a fork and knife (although they do not use them). Either four [[food|apple]]s or [[bomb]]s are usually hiding beneath the platter. Right when the lid vanishes, two red exclamation marks appear on screen, and either item is revealed on the plate. If they are apples, Kirby must quickly inhale them before his opponents, but must avoid swallowing the bombs. If the Kirbys have the same reaction speed, the apples or bombs are shared between them. | ||
< | |||
< | If the Kirbys attempt to inhale before the lid lifts, a red X appears above their head, prohibiting them from competing until the next round. Swallowing bombs has a similar effect, because it penalizes the Kirby from participating in the following round. It also darkens the Kirby and knocks him down. | ||
</ | |||
The first Kirby to swallow eight apples in total wins. The Kirbys share a ranking if they end with a tied meter, or by filling themselves first. Kirbys in first place are ranked as "Winner". | |||
Like the other Sub-Games, Speed Eaters has three difficulty levels, and Kirby's opponents react more quickly in higher difficulty levels. | |||

==Trivia== | |||
*The Sub-Game's official Japanese website has a [[Media:KatAM Japanese wallpaper 3.jpg|wallpaper]] based on Speed Eaters. This is also the case with the other two Sub-Games, [[Crackity Hack]] and [[Kirby Wave Ride]]. | |||
*Like with [[Quick Draw]] from ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'', Speed Eaters was directly ported into a [[wikipedia:Adobe Flash|Flash]] game on the official Japanese website. The Flash game and its dimensions were designed to fit into the screen of a pink Game Boy Advance SP image. The player would use their computer mouse as a substitute for the A button, either by clicking on the Flash screen (with an icon of the A button for the mouse cursor), or by clicking the A button on the Game Boy Advance SP image itself.<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/bk8j/setu_p/index.html Speed Eaters (Flash game) - official ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'' website]</ref> [[Crackity Hack]] and [[Kirby Wave Ride]], the other two Sub-Games, did not receive a port. | |||
