Star Forneus

Star Forneus is a Retro Game item.
==Effect==
Star Forneus can be played during the protagonist's daily life. The full game is split in 3 chapters, with each requiring a single session to be completed; if a chapter isn't completed, it'll have to be done from the beginning.
The rules of the game involve having to mash the X button a certain amount of times in a specific amount of seconds. The minigame will be triggered while progressing certain dialogue.
* The first session requires the X button be pressed 25 times in 7 seconds;
* The second session requires the X button be pressed 30 times in 5 seconds;
* The third session has 2 minigames: first one requires 10 presses in 3 seconds, while the second is 40 in 10.
* Using cheats will halve the number of button presses needed. The only exception is the first session, which reduces them from 25 to 17 (2/3, decimals rounded up.)
For each completed session of Star Forneus, the protagonist will receive 2 notes of Guts, but only 1 if he fails. Upon completing the entire game, he will also receive a Shooting Card, a redeemable item.
