[Version 1.01] January 31, 2003 - 22:49 (MST)
Since today is Friday, I had the chance to play some NES! But since my
VCR isn't hooked up to my tv anymore, I wasn't able to tape myself
playing the game (which by the way, is how I write my guides)...
So since I get sick of playing-writing-playing-writing really quickly,
I was only able to write down enough guide to take you through most of
the second level of the game.
[Version 1.00] January 20, 2003 - 20:06 (MST)
I'm starting my second Nintendo Entertainment System game guide!
So far I've got my ASCII banner and the basic layout all laid-out :)
I also got some of the walkthrough done (up to the second area).
___________________________________________________________________________
.:: 2) Introduction ::.
Once upon the time, a man by the name of Charlie Chaplin started making
movies. The man was so successful, that about every newspaper cartoonist
tried their very best to compete with him, and therefore, gain some fame and
hopefully, some money...
Anyways, making a long story short, a very talented artist known as Otto
Messmer, developed a short film that stared a curious and mischievous little
cat, who since then has gained tons of momentun and fame...
So in 1992 (about 40 years after the first movie aired), Hudson Soft decides
to develop a game based on the, then famous, cartoon show, where Felix plays
the main character. The game actually looked beautiful, with very well done
graphics (based on the MMC 5 technology), beautifully designed level, crispy
animations, and very pleasant tunes...
As Felix, you must travel through Felix World and defeat eight bosses
including the Professor to rescue Kitty. You must use items from you magic
bag to get rid of many enemy creatures you will encounter on your way.
There are 9 areas in the game and multiple rounds in each area. To clear a
round, you must exit the round at the end. To clear the area, you must
defeat the boss.
Also, as you play through the game, you will sometimes find a few hidden
Magic Bags throughout the game. If you find one, stand on top of it and press
Down on the Control Pad. You will enter the bonus stage.
To exit the bonus stage, get on top of the Magic Bag and press down again. If
there is more than one Magic Bag, take your pick! Different bags will lead
you to different places!
This game, being such a masterpiece, just happens to be one of my favorite
games of all times! And for this very reason, I decided to write this
document, which will hopefully help you on your quest to rescue Kitty Cat
from the hand of the evil Professor...
My walkthrough will guide you through the whole entire game, making sure you
collect every single little item in it. I won't be killing all of the enemies
that cross our way, and some times I'll suggest you to just ignore a few of
them. However, if you so desire, you may go ahead and shoot them out.
If you're just looking for some bag locations, general tips and tricks, and
the like, then just skim through the guide, and try to enjoy it. Remember,
'If you don't give Professor the bag, he will take it from you anyways...'
(in-game dialogue)
Good luck!
___________________________________________________________________________
.:: 3) Plot ::.
The evil Professor has captured Kitty Cat and taken her far, far away! He
wants the incredible Magic Bag of Tricks from Felix. If Felix can't rescue
his girlfriend, who knows what the Professor will do?
Luckily, Felix still has the Magic Bag. You must use the awesome powers of
the Magic Bag to their fullest if you want to rescue Kitty.

.:: 5) Items/Characters ::.
[ Lives ]
You begin the game with three Felix's. You will receive an extra Felix for
every 50,000 points you score. You will lose a Felix if:
1) You touch an enemy creature without having any extra magic items.
2) You fall off the screen.
3) You run out of time.
...........................................................................
[ Magic Items ]
Felix uses items from his Magic Bag as weapons. You start the game with one
magic item, a punching glove. To gain Magic Items, you must collect Felix
heads that are found throughout the game. For every 10 Felix heads you
collect, a heart from Kitty will appear. If you catch the heart, you will
get a Magic Item.
Magic Items only last for a limited time. To check the status of your Magic
Item, look at the upper left-hand corner of the screen. You will see a small
picture of the Magic Item and up to 10 hearts. If the hearts run out, you
will lose your Magic Item. To keep from running out of hearts, collect milk
bottles. Three milk bottles will appear when you collect five Felix heads.
...........................................................................
[ Felix ]
Of course, the main character of the game. Perhaps that explains why the game
inherits his name...
...........................................................................
[ Kitty Cat ]
This sexy babe happens to be Felix's sweet heart, who gets kidnapped by the
evil Professor, whose goal is to get Felix's magic bag of tricks.
...........................................................................
[ Poindexter ]
The Professor's young ally, always there to thwart Felix.
...........................................................................
[ Rock Bottom ]
This canine creep may not be bright, but he packs a wallop!
...........................................................................
[ Master Cylinder ]
A mad machine out to stop our heroic feline.
...........................................................................
[ Gulpo ]
This underwater nemesis blasts out King of the Blobs dangerous bubbles!
...........................................................................
[ The Professor ]
Felix's oldest and deadliest foe. If he can't ransom Kitty for the magic bag
of tricks, he'll try to destroy them all.
___________________________________________________________________________
.:: 6) Walkthrough ::.
Alright, here we go... This game isn't very long, but still, before we get
started, I would highly recommend you to go get a nice, comfortable chair,
and some Pina Colada for you to celebrate your victory with =P
First, in case you're somewhat lost, insert the game cartridge inside its
proper slot in front of your Nintendo Entertainment System (or Famicom System
in case you have one). Remember, if the power button is not pushed in, you
won't have a whole lot of fun playing the game ;)
Now, seriously..., once your game is ready to go, do what it tells you, and
'press the start button.'
...........................................................................
[ Felix World 1-1 ]
Here we go... As you start, go to the right (after all, this is an old
school platformers!), and grab the little Felix head over the suspended
platform. Kill the two little monsters in front of you, and make sure you
get the heads as you do so.
After you jump over the tree, smack your opponent, and jump over the
platform in the air, for yet another head. As you go over the bridge, collect
all of the four heads, and follow strait down to the right.
Once you reach the spring on the floor, jump OVER it, and grab the head to
the right of it. Now go back to the spring... When you are over the spring,
hold down the A button to jump real high... Be very careful when you land
on the platform to your right! There will be an enemy there, so make sure you
don't let it hurt you. Keep on going... Now, once you see this group of heads
all lined up vertically, just jump down that same axis, and keep the A button
help down, so the spring on the floor will throw you back up there for more
heads. Grab the M bottles (if you haven't been collecting all of the heads
on your way, then you might not get any M bottles here), and keep on rolling.
Walk across the white blocks (with the ! sign printed on them), but make
darn sure you don't stand there until your clothes go out of style! Really,
if you do stand over them for too long, they'll disappear, and gravity will
probably make you mad! Of course, if you do let them vanish, and fall down,
you'll only be confronted by a stupid little enemy... Don't bother doing so,
though. Just walk strait past it, and jump over the tree to your right. As
always, grab all of the head as you see them.
Remember to keep yourself over the top platforms here. There is nothing down
there, but enemies! If you don't believe me, and go down the ! blocks to see
if you can find any items, you'll probably get hit, and loose your magic...
Jump over the trees, and don't worry about the enemies down in between them.
Get the heads on your way, and don't forget the M bottles. Now jump over the
horizontally moving platform, and jump on top of the spring to your right.
Hold down the A button, and once you're up in the air, go to your left. Try
to land over that bag, and once you're there, hold down to go inside.
Collect all of the heads here, then go back to the main frame (just get back
over the bag, and hold down again).
Now we got a magic upgrade! Yahoo!!! Okay, okay, calm down... Get a few more
heads in front of you, and upgrade your ugly looking cart into a phat, wicked
tank! The trick with the tank is to hold the button longer, if you want the
shot to go farther. Jump low, and barely touch it, and your shot will go just
a little bit away from you... Go forward, and exit the area.
...........................................................................
[ Felix World 1-2 ]
Right when you fall down, shoot your opponent, before it ends up hitting
you. Like in the previous level, jump over the platform, and grab the head.
As you keep on going right, get all of the head you can see, and take the M's
with you too...
Take you time now, and with no hurry, make your way across the river. In
case you lose your balance, and end up at the bottom of the river, well, you
will have to start over from the beginning of the area (1-2).
Now you want to go all the way up this mountain in front of you, but be
VERY careful with the enemy over on top! Just shoot it down, and collect the
two heads over there. Jump back down to your right, but make certain you
don't go too far out to the right! Otherwise, you'll die again...
Go over the river once again, and now move up with the vertically moving
platform. Jump to the platform on your left for an easy head, and then
continue going right.
Make your way across the little waterfall, and again, go past the little
spring on the floor, grab the head, and THEN jump over the spring to reach
the bonus level inside the giant bag. Again, as you stand over that bag, hold
down to go in, and do the same thing to get back to the game.
Once you're out of the bag, go right, but be extremely careful with this
white exclamation point blocks! They will be gone before you'll have time
to get out from over them, so please, be careful! We don't want to keep on
killing Felix, do we?!
Grab the heads on your way, and either kill or dodge the enemies you'll
encounter. Again, do everything in your power, not to stand over this evil
white blocks! This time we have a bottomless pit under them, and since we
don't want to kill our buddy Felix, let's avoid the blocks...
Jump over the trees, and leave that dude down there, alone. Jump on the
platform, and shoot the enemy standing over on the other side. Now jump over
to where the enemy you just shot was, and do the same with, but only shooting
the next enemy over... Shoot that stupid bird down as you jump over this next
platform, and since we're here, why not go ahead and shoot that fish also?!
Grab that head, and exit the level, and get one step closer to saving your
cute girl friend...
...........................................................................
[ Felix World 1-3 ]
Shoot down that bird and that fish... Head over that platform, and get
a head. Make your way over that body of water, and shoot that dude as you
do so. Again, go all the way up this mountain, and grab the head up there.
Just like in area 1-2, be careful not to get hit by that evil enemy standing
right under your face!
Now carefully go over the lake, making sure you get the head, and the heart
that should be popping out of it (in case you're following this guide
closely).
Use the spring to get to the bag on your left... Go inside, and collect
all of those little heads, since that's why they're there :) Now go back
outside the bag, and take those little heads on your right. Again, there'll
be three M (does that M stand for Milk? Cats do like milk, right?!) bottles
for you, as you get yet another Felix head.
Keep going right until you get to this very steep hill. Go up about 3/4
of it, then jump up on the platform on your left, and grab that head.
Now get back to that hill you came from... Once on top, slide down (to the
right, of course), shooting that bird as you go along.
When you get to the second little hill that slopes down (down to the right),
jump over it, instead of sliding it down! Now turn around, and shoot that bad
guy, and grab that head to your left.
Go down the third hill, but don't even think of jumping up from the top
thereof! There will be a bird flying by just in case you do jump up, and I'm
sure you don't want any bird killing Felix, right...
Jump over that tree, and then on the platform to your left. Now go to your
right, and jump on that pretty cloud, with the shape of Kitty Cat's head.
That will give you an extra live...
Use the spring in front of you to get a few heads, then go down the hill on
your right. Get the heads on your way, and get yourself up on that horizontal
platform. Shoot that fish (why does it keep on jumping out of the water,
anyway?), and jump over that other platform. Again, shoot the bird, and
don't forget to get that head.
After shooting that dude on the other side (hopefully before you get there),
enter that bag, and get ready for the boss...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[ Felix World 1-4 ]
[ ** BOSS - AREA ** ]
This guy is actually pretty easy... As you're in, collect only the two heads
to the right of the central platform. Shoot him, and wait until he stops
blinking until you shoot him again... The trick here is to stay as close
to him as you can, but make sure you don't get too close to him!
When the boss walks to the left of the screen, go to your right, and jump
over that suspended platform. Shoot him once or twice from up there, and
jump over, and grab those two remaining heads as soon as you can.
Just remember to stay close to him (so if he shoots at you, the shot will go
right over you, and you'll be safe), and keep on shooting. He'll die after
a few shots, with out ever changing his pattern...
Grab that last head in between the two stones, and exit to area to again, be
that much closer to rescuing Kitty Cat!
...........................................................................
[ Felix World 2-1 ]
Before you get going, I would recommend you fly around a little bit, so that
you'll get used to the mechanics of the flying levels... Just be catious
about that blue bird flying your way there... You don't want to die, like,
now, do you?!
Alright, now, there are two ways to play this levels. One, you feel the
rhythm, feel the ride, and tell yourself it's 'beat them up' time! That
means you collect all of the heads you can, and kill all of the enemies (or
at least most of them) that cross your path. The second method is a bit
easier... You stay low in the screen (not too low, though =P) and fly the
level by. While the second method is not only easier, faster and uglier, it's
also safer. If you're in a hurry, and want to work hard enough just to get
by, then I guess there's nothing wrong with staying low in the screen... The
reason why you might want to stick to the first method described though, is
because you NEED to collect those heads, or else you'll die! Of course, you
can still 'stay low' and get enough easy heads to stay alive, but I like
playing the whole thing better :)
So this is what you do... From the platform you start the level in, fly
straight forward, making sure that bird doesn't take you down. Get that head
over that floating platform, and punch (or shoot, if you can) that cloud
with the shape of Doctor's face. After a few hits, it should release an extra
life for you (of course, if you try to hit it once, and nothing happens, then
nothing will happen. Try it once, you'll know what I'm talking about).
Keep going to your right, and stop on the very top of the pyramid. After
the cannon in front of you shoots, fly towards it, and sock it in the face!
Grab the head over the pyramid to your left, and the two heads under the
platform you were standing on. *Be careful with the bird!*
Go forward, and fly through the cloud that, for some reason, makes you think
of Kitty every time you see it :) Punch that cannon ahead of you, and grab
the head behind you. Keep rolling, but make sure you stay low. Shoot the
other cannon, and collect the heads round about. Keep going... After the
pyramid, fly through Kitty's cloud, but don't bother flying high this time.
There's nothing up there for us (DO'H!).
Once again, fly to your right... When you get to yet another pyramid, stop
at its peak, and fly straight up, and go inside the bag (remember, just stand
over it, and press down). Once inside, collect all of the items there, and
come back out. Now, when you get spit out of the bag, hold right, and don't
let go of that button! You'll get a little 'push' from that magical bag, so
you may as way make a good use of it. Keep holding right on your control pad
until you're flying pass that sorry cannon. Shoot it from behind
(mercylessly), and go get those head to your left (and while you're there,
shoote that cloud with Doc's face to get an extra life!).
Fly back to your right, and don't stop until I tell you to :) Stop at the
pyramid for a second... Okay, go on... But stay low! Shoot the cannon, and
collect a few more heads. Now you a little more to your right, and exit the
level!
...........................................................................
[ Felix World 2-2 ]
Before you go on any farther, notice that in this level, there are no
Kitty & Doctor clouds. Of course, we're inside a pyramid, and since they
don't usually have windows, no wonder why... Anyway, pay close attention to
that stylish wallpaper... Looking familiar? Yes, if you said it is just a big
coincident, you did indeed guess wrong! Seriously though, this creepy faces
on the wall function just like clouds. Every time you get so many faces,
you can punch Doc's face for an extra life, and jump through Kitty's face for
an easy 500 points bonus.
Now, as you begin the level, go to your same right, shooting the crap out of
that creature, as it crosses your way. Fall down into that first platform,
then to the second one. Be careful with that one moster down on your left!
Wait until it's out of your way, and jump there (to your left). Go all the
way to the left, and grab two heads. Go back to those platforms, and make
your way to the topmost platform on the far right.
Go strait and fall straight down. Follow the hallway to your left and grab
two easy heads. As you go back to your right, pretend that bag isn't there,
and walk right pass it, collecting two more heads. Now you go back west, and
get inside that bag.
After you clean up the room inside the bag, use the one bag to your left to
get back out into the main level. Continue going right, and go up the
platforms. Go right and fall down this first pit, but stay on that first
platform... When the approprite time comes, jump on the horizontally moving
platform, and then jump to the LEFT.
Being cautious with that creature on the floor, get those two heads, and
head back to your right. Go over that pit, and even if you feel tempted to,
I'd reccomend you not to jump down :) Now, see that bag? Yes, that is where
you'd been if you'd chosen the bag to your right, when you were inside that
first bag. Of course, if you had done so, you wouldn't had had all of this
heads with you, so be greatful!!!
Continue running east, being carful not to get hit. When you get to that
spring, jump on it, but try not to go too high. There'll be a head on top
of each spring, so jump down on them, and collect them all. Just remember
to stay somewhat low. Good job, you've made it through yet another level...
