Sora is souped up for the demo with skills like: Ice Breaker, Sparkga, Slot Blade, Rainbow Wind, Balloonra, and Curera. Meow Wow and Neko Cat (Japanese name) follow Sora as his two friendly Spirits. You can swing on lampposts using the Flow Motion actions and grind on electric wires. The whole thing including the boss fight takes less than 20 minutes to complete.
