Twinkle Star Sprites is a 1996 scrolling shooter arcade game developed by ADK and published by SNK. It was ADK's last production for the Neo Geo. Two players are each in separate, side-by-side, vertically scrolling levels. Combinations of shots and timed power-ups damage the other player. These attacks also serve as counters to the opponent's attack.
