Speed Up!

Speed Up! (Faster! in the English versions of WarioWare: Twisted! and WarioWare: Smooth Moves) is a recurring event in the WarioWare series. Every time this prompt is shown, the game increases in speed, giving the player less time to complete the microgames. Generally, two "Speed Up!"s occur at certain intervals during a level, which are then followed by a "Boss Stage" prompt (introducing a boss microgame). If the player is replaying the level, a "Level Up" prompt appears after the boss microgame, which increases the game's difficulty; the speed resets; and the cycle repeats. After two "Level Up"s, the "Level Up"s are replaced by "Speed Up!"s, increasing the game's speed gradually until the player loses all of their lives.
