1.Introduction
============
Gex: Enter the Gecko is a Game Boy Color game
developed by David A. Palmer Productions, and published
by Crave Entertainment. I am writing this FAQ at the
request of a Current Events user, IR_Scanner.
==================

====================================
3.How to find Remotes/Hidden Remotes
====================================
"How to find remotes?!" you say, "But isn't that what this
whole walkthrough is FOR?!" you shout in frustration.
Don't worry, I'm not getting lazy or leaving you on your
own. This is just a section meant for describing how to find a
specific remote in my walkthrough.
Finding a remote works like this: Open up your find box
by pressing CTRL+F on your keyboard. Once it is open, type
in the number of the remote you are looking for (1, 2, 3, etc.)
then put a decimal after it, followed by the number of the world.
(1.1, 2.1, 3.2, etc.)
For example, if you were looking for the third remote(3) in
the world Out of Toon(1, as it is the first world) then you
would press CTRL+F and type in "3.1" and it would take you
to Remote 3.1 - Whack five purple mushrooms.
If you are not sure which order the worlds are in, check
the table of contents.
Hidden remotes work the same way, except you use a lowercase
"h" before the number of the world. For example, searching for
"h.2" takes you to the hidden remote in world two.
--------------------------------------------------------
===========
a1.Gameplay
===========
Gameplay in Gex:Enter the Gecko is done by platforming
your way through different worlds to find tv remotes.
You find these tv remotes by following various hints
given to you before you start the level. Once you're
inside the world, you have to complete the task given
from the hint.
After getting your first remote, you go on to the next,
and so on. You rinse and repeat this process until you
unlock access to the next world(s) in the game. You can
also continue your game through a password that is given
to you while playing Gex:Enter the Gecko.
============
a2-Controls
============
Directional Pad = Move\Run
UP on directional pad = Enter door\Climb surfaces
A button = Whack tail
B button = Jump
Start = Pause
Select = Check status\Enter password\Eat flies
B button when landing on tail = Double jump
Okay, for some wacky reason the B button is to jump in this game
and the A button is to attack. This is the opposite for the standard
in almost EVERY platformer game. It may be frusturating at first, but
if you are willing to play through this game then you will get used to it.
When you are moving in either direction, after about two seconds Gex will
begin to run. This is great for making long jumps and the momentum stays with
you during double-jumps. The best part about this is that if you mess up and
make a long fall, you won't get hurt as long as you hit the ground. There are
some exceptions to this rule, like some holes and never-ending death pits, but
usually you just get a noise and an animation.
Pressing the select button inside of levels will make Gex stick out his
tongue. You can use this to eat flies that you can free from breaking boxes
with a gecko paw or Gex's face on them. Eating will either restore Gex's
health, or give him an extra life depending on the color of the fly. If it is
a green fly, then you will get an extra life. If it is a blue fly, then all
your health will be restored.
Pressing the select button outside of levels, however, will open up a screen
that displays remaining lives, health, and the amount of remotes you've
collected along with a feature that lets you see your current password.
==========
a3-Story
==========
You know, I honestly have no idea what the story to this game is.
The console versions have some plot where a guy named Rez takes away
TV from Gex, so I'm assuming its the same here.
-----------------------------------------------------------
************************************
* 4.Walkthrough *
************************************
Okay, when you first turn the game be prepared to wait
a really long time for a game of any kind to show up.
When you finally do reach the title screen, your ears
are treated to some awful ominous-sounding music. Quickly,
press the B button(I know, I know) to start the game and
make it stop!!!
ENTERING... The media dimension. Ok, so apparently we're
going into some crazy pop-culture infested world. That
doesn't sound so bad actually... OH GOD THE MUSIC ISN'T
STOPPING! If you want to, go ahead and mute the game from
here, it might make it a bit more tolerable.
Now that you're in this hamby-pamby fancy new world, you
will notice that you have taken control of a lizard. What
will they think of next?! Anyways, when you're done exper
imenting with the controls, head on over to the left past
the bonus section and into the Out of Toon world.
*****************
*4.1-Out of Toon*
*****************
Ahh, here we are. The remote selection screen.
This is basically just picking your objective in the level,
so pick which one sounds best to you. However, I recommend
starting with Remote 3, because it is the easiest one to do.
=======================================
Remote 1.1 - Jump to the teetering rock
=======================================
Jump... to the teetering rock... sounds treacherous, doesn't it?
Actually, the rock you're going to isn't "teetering" at all, so
don't even worry about it. Run to the right, and dodge the killer
sunflower by running through the hammer at the end of it's swing.
You might think its going to hurt you, but it is actually safe to
go through.
Go until you reach the cliff with the rock, hop up to it, and
head right until you reach a waterfall. Make your way to the top
moving log by riding on the lower log and jumping onto the support
in the middle. After you are on the top log, head to the left cliff.
Make a running jump to the left starting from the right-most edge of
the cliff.
Once you land you will be next to a river with a fish in it. Whack the
fish, and hop onto the moving log. Jump over to the left and go until
you reach the cave. Enter the cave by pressing UP on the directional pad.
When you come out, go right past the sunflower and dodge the hunter's
bullet up ahead, then whack the hunter to death.
Keep running to the right past the tv and through the water until you reach a
levitating log. Jump on it, then wait until you reach the top and jump over to
the cliff with a giant stump on it. On top the giant stump is a television and
a soda can(how fitting), if you need more health you can break the tv and eat
the fly that comes out of it. (Eat the fly by pressing SELECT.)
After you're done with that, avoid the bear trap and double-jump onto the
cliff and run to the right while jumping over and running under bear traps
until you reach a giant stump. Hop across the giant stumps and avoiding the
bear traps until you reach the cliff. Jump onto the branch and then onto
the stump. There is a hunter past here, and if you want to avoid him
altogether you should make your way across the tree branches instead
of taking the ground path.
Go right until you reach another mailbox with a sign and a cave next to
it. Enter the cave by pressing UP and head to the right until you reach
some water, stop in the water to whack the fish(or jump over it) and keep
going. There will be another river with a fish, make your way through it
just like before except this time jump onto the slanted cliff and whack
the checkered TV box with your tail. These are checkpoints.
"About dang time!" you shout, but alas, your shout falls on deaf ears.
After you are done yelling into the air/screen/wherever, move your little
lizard feet up to the top of the mountain by climbing the slopes. Walk over
to the right and run across the log above the waterfall. Get off the log when
you have reached the end, dodge the sunflower hammers, and move on.
Use what little space you have to make a running jump over to the other side,
and whack the scorpion that shows up. You can climb the green substance on the
walls to get some collectible soda cans, but it isn't really necessary. Walk
over to the right and enter the cave. You will exit out of... the sky? O__O
Ok.. I don't know much about the laws of science, but I'm pretty sure that
isn't possible. After you're done breaking time & space, move to the right
until you reach a cactus making a hump-like motion. Yeah... I think its
humping the ground. Poor little feisty cactus doesn't have a cactus
girlfriend. Anyways, you can either time your dash to run under these things,
or you can jump on top of them to defeat them.
One of those two options is clearly easier, but I just wanted to let you know
that if you DO want to run under one of these things, maybe because you have
to or for conveience sake, their patterns are to hump the ground four times,
then jump up, then three times, jump, then two times, jump, then one time, and
a final jump. After the final jump these enemies reset back to humping the
ground four times, so in layman's terms 4-3-2-1. You can use this timing to
your advantage to get past them.
Ok, so get past this first cactus and keep going right past the first slope
until you reach a second, smaller slope. Make a dash up the slope, and double-
jump of the platform hanging in mid-air to reach the next cliff with a cactus
on it. Dispatch this cactus and onto the next cliff. Jump up in front of the
mountain with two cracks in it and go to the left until you reach a cactus.
Jump on it, run under, whatever. Keep going left and you will reach another
one. Take care of this prickly jerk, and head left until you reach a dead
drop.
Wait for a log to come down and hop onto it. Wait for it to take you to the
top, and jump onto the floating rock. Hey, that rhymes! Move to the right and
you will most likely be stopped dead in your tracks by a giant freaking bee.
Whack the bumblebee, and hop over to the cliff on the right. Walk to the
right, drop down onto the log, and then onto the next mountain. Make a running
dash over to the right, and jump onto the next mountain, either taking out or
avoiding the cactus in the process. Run up the slope, kill the cactus, and
once you reach the end JUMP for dear life onto the nearest log.
Double-jump onto the higher log, and then jump onto the cliff and head right
to claim your reward.
=================================
Remote 2.1 - Hunt the two Hunters
=================================
Two hunters are on the lookout for a wascally wabbit!
Not really, but you do have to go "hunt" two hunters... and by hunt, I
mean kill. Dodge the sunflower's hammers by waiting for the end of the
swing, and then moving on. You will be safe if you run through the hammer
while it is not swinging. Keep going to the right until you reach a cliff
with a rock, and jump up to it.
Run to the right eating all the carrots along the way, and once you reach
a waterfall, jump to the top log and hop on over to the left mountain.
Stand at the right-most edge of the cliff and then make a running leap
over to the left where the carrots are. You should land and be next to
a river with a fish swimming in it. Whack the fish, and then jump onto
the log.
Go over to the left until you see a sign next to a cave entrance. Yikes!
They must be hunting wascally wabbits! We can't let that happen, so head
on into the cave. Run right passing the mailbox but be careful to avoid
the sunflower's hammers. Go past the log or hop up on it to get what I
assume are Bugs Bunny's carrots, either way keep moving right until you
reach the first hunter!
WATCH OUT! That hunter is firing bullets the size of bullet bills
from his rifle! Dodge his bullet(s), then whack the crap out of him
until he dissapears. I mean, really keep tapping the A button even
when is down. If you let him get back up, he will do damage to you.
After that blatant display of murder, head over to the right until
you reach a tv.
REMEMBER this tv. This is where you will claim your remote later.
Anyways, run to the right again through the water until you reach
a levitating log and hop up to it. Jump over to the cliff where you
can see a tv and a soda can sitting on top of a giant stump. Look out
for the bear trap though, if it touches you it will damage you.
If you got hurt, double-jump from the rock onto the giant stump
and break the tv to release a fly, then press SELECT to eat it.
These blue flies will completely restore your health. After you
are done here, hop over onto the cliff to the right but look out
for more bear traps. Run past the tree until you reach the next
giant stump, and double-jump onto it.
From here, go across all the giant stumps avoiding the bear traps
on each one. Once you reach the cliff, jump on the branch and then
onto the stump. Drop down, then move to the right but keep an eye
out for the hunter's massive bullet. Hop over it, and whack the
last hunter to death.
The game should now show the tv I told you to remember earlier,
so run back to the left until you reach it. Be careful though,
because if you die you will have to start over from the beginning
of the level and kill the hunters all over again.
Annoying, I know.
========================================
Remote 3.1 - Whack five purple mushrooms
========================================
As soon as you start, head to the left to whack your first purple mushroom.
Feeling good about yourself? Then run on over to the right but STOP, because
there is a flower in the way, and it wants you dead. Every second or so, these
flowers will try to lay the hammer down on you, although I don't know how,
because they don't have hands. After the hammer reaches the end of its swing,
it is safe to run past it without getting hurt.
After avoiding the deadly sunflower, keep going to the right and make your way
up to the cliff with a rock on it. Keep running to the right. YUM YUM CARROTS!
Ok now slow down there speedy gonzales. You will reach a waterfall with two
logs moving back and forth, jump on the one you can reach and head over to the
other side.
Keep runing right until you reach the next purple mushroom and whack it. This
is only our second one, but keep this place in mind as you will need to return
here later to claim your remote. Ok, now go BACK to the logs in the waterfall
except this time jump to the top log and take the right path until you reach
your third purple mushroom. Once you have slain the fungus, go back to the
left and drop back down onto the first log.
This time, go back to the cliff with the rock on it from before and make your
way below. Run to the left making sure to drink all that ice-cold refreshing
pop on the way over. Shortly after you should have found the fourth purple
mushroom. Then, you must whip it! Whip it good! Ride that whip! Ok, once you
are done jamming to the catchy beat I just put in your head, keep going left.
Keep running left until you reach a bouncing smiley face on top of a boulder.
Once you have reached him, you now realize that A.You're tripping balls, or
B.Getting closer to the next purple mushroom. Anyways, whack that smile right
off his face and double-jump onto the cliff. Go over to the left and jump up
to the third branch on this tree(the longest one) and make a running leap of
faith to the log on the right. After landing, double-jump onto the next log
and then onto the cliff.
Go right and you will discover something new. A green television/box!
Whack it right open to get the firefly/lightning bug or whatever it is
out of it. Once it is flying around press the SELECT button to eat it
and gain an extra life. Oh, and also.... THE FINAL PURPLE MUSHROOM! :D
Here it is... the moment you have been working so hard for... take
your tail and slam down hard on the evil fungus with the fury of a
thousand lizards! Take that, purple mushroom! You won't be hurting
children anymore! Yeah... after you are done on your little power trip,
go back to the place I told you to remember before. (Past the waterfall)
If you kept going to the right, dodge the sunflowers like you did
with the first one and keep going. When you reach a slanted cliff,
hop onto it and walk up. Jump up to the cliff with the rock like
before, and make your way across the waterfall again. Keep going
right to where the second purple mushroom was, except THIS time,
claim your remote by jumping onto the button! You have earned it!
*****************
*4.2-Smellraiser*
*****************
Ahhh, you smell that? Smells like the halloween-themed level
smellraiser! For this world, I reccommend starting with the
first remote, as the other two remotes have objectives built
on top of that one. Now go in there and raise some smell!
(Horrible pun, I know.)
========================================
Remote 1.2 - Survive the Haunted Mansion
========================================
The level starts up, showing you a door and the location of the
remote you need to get, followed by letting you take control of
Gex who is in-between two torches. Run all the way to the right,
it doesn't matter how, until you reach a silver bolt-studded wall.
Press the UP button to climb up it then make your way across the gap
and enter the door. Coming out of the door, head right until you reach
an elevator and take it up until you can reach a platform, then jump
to it. Hop across the chandelier and go right to enter the next door.
Go down the stairs past the sign that says "Step into the light" and hit
the checkpoint. Whack the bat in your way and keep going forward and when
you reach a ghost, jump over it. Then keep running right past the tv and
go up the stairs. Whack the bat at the top and then make a running leap to
the next platform.
Go left a little bit and whack the purple head, then jump across. Next,
either jump or double-jump your way up to the next ledge. When you reach
the longest one, make a running leap to the left so that you will land
safely on the platform, but be careful of the pumpkin enemy. Whack the
bouncing pumpking and then make another running leap to the left.
You will land on another platform, go left until you reach a door that
you can hop up to. Enter it, then go down the stairs and across the water
until you reach an elevator. Oh, before you ride it though, if you need
health then keep going to the end of the river to reach a box with a blue
fly inside it.
If you're perfectly healthy, ride the elevator and kill the bouncing pumpkin
at the top. Hop across the brown platform and then over to the blue ledge
where
a door will be waiting for you. Enter it, and you will come out to a sign that
says "No haunting before 10pm". No, that isn't some secret time to play the
game that will make the enemies disappear, they will always be here.
Anyways, run down the slope and dodge the two statues of armor's axes.
Run up the next slope past the grandfather clock and keep running until
you reach the peak of the last slope and JUMP over to the blue platform.
What is this, Gex or Sonic the Hedgehog?! Ok, so hop across the platforms
and bookcases until you reach a tv and whack it if you want to.
Then, hop on down and keep moving right until you reach some steps.
Bounce yourself up there with buoyancy of a basketball. Woah, were
you Michael Jordan in a past life?! After your amazing display of
dribbling, double-jump up to that zombie and whack it to death.
Infection avoided. Make your way across the platforms to the left
by double-jumping and then make your way left past another "Step
into the light" sign and jump over the ghost. Once you are past
the ghost, make a runnin LEAP to the chandelier and QUICKLY
dobule-jump to the next platform.
Run up the slope, whack the head, and go past the fireplace until
you reach a door and enter it. Look familiar? Then go up to the
middle by taking either path and jump on the button in front of
the tv.
Congratulations! You have survived the Haunted House!
=========================================
Remote 2.2 - Smash the five blood coolers
=========================================
This level starts out in the same area as the last one,
as usual. Go right until you reach the studded wall and
then take the moving platform over to the left and walk
across the ledge until you reach the first blood cooler.
Whack it, and you are well on your way to victory!
Take the elevator back across, then jump over the hole and
enter the door. Run down the slope, and take the elevator when
you reach it. Jump to the right, and make your way across the
chandlier and to the next door. PROTIP: Go to the left first
if you want an extra life.
Enter the door, head down the steps and whack the checkpoint.
Whack the annoying bat and then go across the top of the
bookcases. When you reach the last one, gain some momentum
from running and then do a double-jump up to the blood cooler.
Its tricky(frustrating) but with some practice you will reach
it.
Ok, so once you're done cursing at the screen, make your way right
past the ghost and the TV(Once again, remember this place) then head up
the stairs, making sure to whack the bat at the top. Make a running jump
to the left, and keep going until you reach a head. Whack it, and jump
across to the next ledge on the left.
Run across, hopping up to each ledge while collecting skulls & tombstones
until you reach a long jump. Run and jump, but look out for the bouncing
pumpkin. Whack it, and leap to to the left until you reach a door that you
can enter. Do just that, and head down the stairs and run through what I
can only assume is the sewage system, until you reach the second brown
platform with three tombstones on it.
Hop across the platforms to the left until you reach a zombie, and
whack it to death. Run to the left and bounce across the next platform
right onto the next ledge. Keep running to the left until you reach the
blood cooler and whack it. Three down, two to go! Run back to the right
and take the elevator you saw earlier up to the top.
Whack the smug look off that pumpkin's face, and enter the next door.
Run your little lizard feet down the slope and keep running to the right
while avoiding the two statues' axes. Run across the next two slopes
speedy-gonzales style until you reach the peak and JUMP to the next
platform. Keep hopping across until you reach a tv, then drop down.
Go right, hop up the steps, keep going right, and hop up to the zombie
and whack it to death. Gex is the only cure for this virus! After you
are done slaying the undead, head to the right and break the fourth
blood cooler. How much blood do these people need?! Anways, double-jump
yourself across the platforms to the left until you reach the next ledge.
Run to the left, but avoid the ghost you will come across. When you reach
a bookcase, be careful not to fall off. Do a running jump to the chandelier
and then quickly double-jump to the next ledge. Run left up the slope and
whack the purple head you will come across. Go past the fireplace, and enter
the first door you see.
Run up the slope to the right, and keep going up the steps until you reach
the fifth blood cooler. The game will display the tv I told you to remember,
so start making your way back in that direction. What? You don't want to walk
allll the way back? Too bad, if you want this remote, you have to EARN it!
Exit the door you came through and run right past the fireplace then down the
slope and drop down from the ledge. Make your way back to the left past the
two slopes from before, dodging the axes until you reach the door. Hey that
rhymes! Enter the door, and drop yourself off the ledge to the left.
You will land in some septic tank water next to a tv. If you really need
any health, break the box and eat the blue fly that comes out of it. After
you're done contemplating what could possibly be in this water, run to the
left up the stairs and enter the door. Go right and drop down. Ouch.
Run to the right, past the bookcases and dodge the ghost until you reach
the television again. Hop on the button, and you have successfully completed
your task!
======================================
Remote 3.2 - Ride the Haunted Elevator
======================================
Sounds easy enough, and it really is, IF you know what to do. Since
you have come to my walkthrough for help, I'm going to go ahead and
assume you DON'T know what to do. Good thing you have me here to guide
you along. :)
Start up the level, and you will get a little cutscene showing you where
the remote is. You start between two torches in the same room, as usual.
Anyways, make your way right to the studded wall again and climb up until
you reach the top and hop across the hole then enter the door.
Run down the slope, going right until you reach an elevator. Take it up
until you can reach a blue platform. Hop over to it, then across the
chandelier, then to the ledge. Run right past the door until you reach
a bookshelf with a mona lisa painting above it. Whack the bookshelf with
your tail, and a lever appears. Whack that too.
You will get a cutscene displaying a larger version of Mona Lisa going from
OFF to ON. What does this mean? Well, it means the haunted elevator is now
activated. "But WHERE is it?!" you shout in fear of being lost. Don't worry,
I'm here to guide you, remember?
Enter the door you past before, and go down the stairs. Whack the checkpoint
and the bat. Keep running to the right past all the bookcases and avoid the
ghost that gets in your way. Go up the stairs and whack the bat at the top
of them. Run to the left, making your way to the next ledge where there will
be one of those heads waiting for you. Whack it, and hop over to the next
ledge.
Run left, and jump up to the platform and onto the ledge. Make a running leap
to the left from here, being careful not to touch the pumpkin enemy on the
next ledge. Whack it, and make a running jump to the next ledge. Go left,
hop up to the door, and enter it. Run down the stairs and through the sewage
until you reach a brown elevator. Take it up to a bouncing pumpkin, whack the
enemy, and hop across to the right.
Enter the next door you come across, and run down the slope. Go past the two
statues while avoiding their axes and keep running across the next few slopes
until you reach the end and LEAP across like a wild cheetah. Keep hopping
across the platforms and bookcases until you reach a tv and whack it for some
health if you want.
Drop down, go right, and bounce up the steps. Hop onto the platform, and
double-jump up to the zombie and whack it two times to kill it. Double-jump
across the platforms on the left to get to the ledge and run to the left
avoiding a ghost until you reach a book case. Make a running jump to the
chandelier and quickly jump again to the next ledge. Run up the slope,
and whack the next head you come across.
Run past the fireplace and ignore the first door you see. Keep running,
and you will come across a second door. Enter this one, and... notice
anything familiar? Head to the right and take the elevator to the bottom.
Run to the right avoiding the statues' axes and jump onto the brown platform.
Take it down and go to the left through the water to get a hidden remote(h.2)
Then go back to the right and take the elevator back up to reach the tv
and claim your remote.
Did you have fun riding the haunted elevator? OoH-oOh-OoH!
*********************
*EMERGENCY BROADCAST*
*********************
Ok, so now you should have six, count em', 6 remotes! If you wait a little
bit in the hub world the red gate that was locked before should open, you
can enter it the same way you as you do for doors(Pressing UP) and you should
be in a place that looks a little familiar, but it isn't the same place.
Ok, so head right a little bit and then you will run into... another Scream TV
box? "I have to play the same world AGAIN?!" you shout in anger at your little
plastic game boy color. Don't worry, it isn't exactly the same world, but it
does have the same theme and music... kind of a cop out on the developers part
wasn't it?
Anwyays, after you're done wondering if you should even play this game
anymore,
hop on the button. Welcome to...
************************
*4.3 - Frankensteinfeld*
************************
Ok, just so you know, I won't be interrupting you between these next few
worlds, so do them in any order you please. As for this guide, however, we
will be starting with this one. You've got three choices this time, Run the
Axe Gauntlet, Head down the Ramp, or Stick across the tower of doom. I don't
know about you, but that axe one sounds pretty fun.
=================================
Remote 1.3 - Run the Axe Gauntlet
=================================
The level starts out, and you can see another one of those studded
surfaces in front of you. Climb it by pressing UP and move over to
the right then drop down. Run to the right and enter the door. Make
a running leap across the gap and then make your way to the furthest
door on the right and enter it.
Run up the ramp and use the brown platform to jump over to the next
ledge before it disappears, then whack the frankenstein. Run down
the ramp, and then jump over to the next one to get over the lava.
Leap over to the steps and make your way up them, then head up the
ramp on the left.
Whack the ghost at the top(you can kill these ones) and run to the
left until you reach a gap. Make a running jump over to the left and
run up the ramp, then under the statue's axe. Head down the next ramp
and jump across to the next ledge and up the next ramp. Run to the left
until you reach a pumpkin and kill it. Head through the little cubby-hole
and drop down.
WELCOME TO THE AXE GAUNTLET! Are you lizard enough to survive?! *cough*
Ahem, make your way left past all the statues' axes until you reach the door
and enter it. Double-jump yourself up the platforms and claim your remote.
Not as epic as you thought it was going to be, I bet.
===============================
Remote 2.3 - Head Down the Ramp
===============================
Ok, so to get this remote you head down the ramp.
..What? Oh, you need to know how to get to the ramp first?
Then go buy a map or something, I'm not your personal guide.
"But you wrote this walkthrough!!!"
*sigh* Fine.
Climb across the studded wall to the right like you did before,
drop down, go right and enter the door. Run and jump across the
hole and enter the first door you see. Run to the right and drop
down to get a hidden remote(h.3) and then take the ramp to the
left back up to the door.
Use the brown platform before it disappears to make your way across
to the ledge. Run across to the platform to the right and hop across
the next two chandeliers, then grab onto the silver studded wall by
pressing UP. Climb up until you reach a door and enter it.
Run to the right and jump across to the ledge and then head down the
ramp(ahhh, so THAT'S why its called that!) and past the next two statues.
Bounce up the steps and whack the zombie. Head to the right and make your
way up the platforms until you reach a door.
Enter it, head UP the ramp(wtf?), and claim your remote.
===========================================
Remote 3.3 - Stick Across the Tower of Doom
===========================================
No, this isn't pole-vaulting. You're a lizard remember? You
must physically STICK across the tower! Now that we've cleared
that up, head over to the door on the right and enter it.
Run and jump across the hole, and enter the door furthest to
the right. Run up the ramp and use the brown platform before it
disappears to get to the next ledge. Whack the frankenstein, then
head down the ramp to the right and jump over the lava.
Head right, drop down, and hop up the steps then go up the ramp to
your left. Whack the ghost at the top before it throws its head and
make a running jump going left to reach the next ledge. Dodge the
statue and hop to the next ledge. Run up the ramp, and use the next
platform to get up to the next ramp.
Keep going right up the ramp and whack the ghost at the top. Head right,
going down one ramp and up the next, then use the brown platform before it
disappears to get to the next ledge. Make a running jump to the right and
triple double-jump up the next three chandeliers. When you land on the
ledge, go right a little bit and whack the frankenstein.
Keep running to the right and jump to the next ledge. Head up the ramp,
go right and whack the bat you run into, then use the disappearing brown
platform to reach the studded wall and cling to it. Now that you are on
the wall(the tower of doom), start by heading north and then east.
Head east until you have to turn north, then take the first left.
Head north from that posistion until you have to go right, then
take the path going north. When you hit a wall, go east until
you reach a dead end. Oh no, we're stuck! Sike, press the (B)
button to drop down and press UP to catch yourself on the next
wall.
You may have noticed flying spiked balls flying at you from
different directions. You could spend all your time dodging them,
but to make your life much easier just press the (A) button when
they get near you to do a spin attack and destroy them.
From your current posistion, head right while destroying any
spike balls that get in your way then take a left(north) and
a right(east). Head south(right) from here while attacking
the spiked balls and take the next right(east).
Take your next left(north) and destroy the next spike ball.
Head east, then south and destroy the spiked ball that gets
in your way. Head east until you reach a third turn and head
north(left). Take your next right and land smoothly on the
ledge. Enter the door to your right, and walk up the ramp
to your left while avoiding or destorying the spiked balls
to claim your final remote for this world.

=====================================
Remote 1.4 - Defeat the Deadly Dragon
=====================================
Alright! Gex's first boss! Wait, what? We have to get to him first?
Aw, man! :(
Start out by going left and entering the building. Go right, take the
elevator up to the gong and whack it with your tail. Wait for two platforms
to appear, then drop down(you won't get hurt) and walk right over to the
yin & yang symbols and jump while standing on them to get up to the ledge.
Run to the right and hop on the platforms you summoned from before. Enter
the hut and run right over to the next building, eating all the kung pow
chicken you want along the way. Enter the building, then whack the gong to
open the door. Enter the newly-opened door and climb the yellow surface to
your right.
Run and jump over to the roof of the hut on the right, make your way up
to the gong and whack this one too. Wait for two red platforms to appear
just like before, then use them to to get up to the ledge and exit the
building. Hop to the next roof over and whack the checkpoint if you want
(You DO want.) Then enter the next building to your right.
Oh hey, look, a cute little scorpion! Kill it with your deadly
tail and make your way to the platforms on the right. Make your
way up these platforms, murdering the scorpions one-by-one until
you have to climb a yellow surface to get to the top. Head left,
using the yin & yang symbols to get to the highest platform with
chinese food on it.
Make a running jump over to the next building and enter it. FOOD!
Om nom nom. Walk over to the right edge of the roof and wait for
a moving platform to reach you. Take it over to the other side,
and hop onto the next roof that it takes you to. Drop down from
either side, and enter the door in the middle.
Smash the vase to take out some anger if you want, then run
over to the right to kill a ninja. Jeez, do you need anger
management or what? After you have killed the ninja, a cutscene
should show up displaying that killing the ninja has spawned an
elevator into existence. Newton's Law has gone terribly, terribly
wrong.
Take the newly-created elevator up to the ledge and climb the yellow
wall until you reach the other side. Run to the left, but be careful,
because the dragon is here. Avoid any part of the dragon's body, and
jump onto the roof. To kill it, you have to fire the cannon at its head
by jumping on the cannon. You can also whack the cannon to turn it around,
but I recommend keeping it pointed in one direction due to the whackiness
of this section.
After hitting the dragon about eight or nine times, it finally goes down
in a satisfying explosion of purple fireworks. A door opens somewhere,
and rocks and/or possibly chinese food is all over the place. The reason
it burst into those objects is because the ESRB decided the original scene
where you tore out the dragon's intestines was too graphic. So, yeah, those
are dragon intestines. Eat up. (Not really)
Walk over to the left, jump over to the open door and enter it. Break the
vase, hop up on the platform, and climb the wall to reach the tv and claim
the remote you rightfully deserve.
You are now Gex, the dragon slayer!
===============================
Remote 2.4 - Traverse the Steps
===============================
Here we go. This is MUCH more exciting than fighting a dragon!
I mean, dragons are ok, but these are STEPS we're talking about here!
There could be walking, some steps, and then some more walking... its
gonna be great!
The level starts in the same place as remote 1, but for a bit of
refreshment, we go right instead of left. Enter the building,
then enter the next one. A weird design choice if you ask me,
but anyways... hop across the next three set of steps until you
reach a yellow wall. Climb up it, drop down, and dodge the
guillotines until you reach a moving platform.
Jump onto it, hop over to the hut, and enter it. Walk down the
steps, using the yin & yang symbol to get back up to the ledge
if you need to, and head right until you reach a hole. Jump
over to the steps, climbing up them until you reach a gong.
Whack it, and wait for the elevator to start moving.
Go left back to where you saw the elevator before and take
it up to the next yin & yang symbol and use the symbol to
reach another gong. Whack it to open a door, then jump
to the ledge on the right and climb the ledges to get to
the door and enter it.
Woah, is there anything he... LOOK OUT A NINJA!
Whack the ninja here to his ninja-death, then wait for
a cutscene to trigger that will show you that killing a ninja
has inadvertently created two more of those yin & yang symbols
for you to use. What is with this place?!
When your jaw is done dropping, use the left-most yin & yang
symbol to reach a gong and whack it. Jump across the platforms
to the right and then drop back down to earth. Move over the
platform that got lowered earlier and enter the door.
Here we are. Climb the yellow wall to your left and move across
the moving platforms until you reach the tv. Hop on the button,
and get the last remote for this world.
Wait... where were the steps?

==========================================
Remote 1.5 - Scale the Bionic Launch Tower
==========================================
We have bionics, and they need to be launched!
Start my going left and running in front of the computer
chip to start flashing yellow. You will find out what this
does soon. Go left and climb up the yellow wall to reach the
large gray computer chip on the left. Double-jump up to the
partially green cube with some red wires behind it, then stand
on it and press the jump button to do a giant leap onto a green
ledge to your left. This is part of what embuing Gex with a computer
ship does, the other part is yet co come.
Run up the slope and use the next cube to get to the next ledge, then
walk up it to reach a hallway. Enter the hallway by pressing UP and make
your way past the green beams in this room while walking past another swirling
computer chip. Hop onto the next ledge, then run and jump to the ramp on your
right. Run down it, but jump over the purple electricty coming after you.
Make sure you reach the end before Gex stops flashing yellow. Once you are at
the bottom, jump onto the green elevator to ride it to the top then jump over
to the next slope at your right. Run across it while dodging purple
electricity until you reach the end, and jump up to the next one. Run to the
end of this one too, and jump over to the ledge. Either whack or jump on top
of these red plugs to kill them. Head past the green beams, hop up to
the ledge, and enter the hallway.
Run to the right, getting Gex to flash yellow again, and then go to the right
until you reach another cube and use it to get up to the ledge. Head up the
ramp to the left, use the next cube, and run right up the next ramp while
getting Gex to flash yellow again by running past another one of those
computer chips. Use the next cube to get on the next ledge, run to the left
and use the next cube to reach the following one, and then head
right and use a third cube to get up onto a third ledge.
Run left and use the next cube to get up on the ledge, and whack the robot
coming at you. Run to the right until you reach the tv. Hop on it to get your
remote.
=======================================
Remote 2.5 - Cross the Data Bus Bridges
=======================================
Go left and use the yellow chip to flash yellow again, except this time
head right and scale the gray computer chips until you reach a block with
a green arrow on it. Jump on to it, and it will create a data bus bridge.
This is the other use of those yellow computer chips. Run across the bridge
until you reach a cube and use it to get onto the gray computer chip, then
hop onto the next data bus bridge.
Run right to the next cube and use it to reach the ledge, then jump to the
next data bus bridge. Run left across the bridge until you reach a hallway,
stand in front of it and press UP to enter. Head to the right and whack the
plug enemy, then hop onto the next ledge. Jump over to the long green ledge
with a generator sticking out of it, run to the right and drop to the next
one while being sure to avoid electricity, then drop down to the third one.
Run to the right and hop up to another green ledge, then run across that
one and hup up to yet another green ledge. Hop onto the generator and run
across it, then run to the end of the ledge and hop to the next. Jump over
the next two ledges, then make a running leap to the third one. Run across
this one, and jump to the next.
Do another running leap to the next ledge, and jump to the one straight
across from it. Make one more running leap to the next green ledge, and
then jump over to the smaller one with a generator on it. Hop over to
the ledge with black & yellow caution stripes on it, then drop down, go
to the right and whack the red plug enemy and head right past the beams
until you reach another hallway. Enter it.
Head right and jump across the hole. Make a running leap from here to
the next ledge. Head right, getting rid of the bouncing plug enemy,
then jump over and head right to the next yellow chip. While flashing
yellow, back up and make a running jump to the data bus bridge. Run
across it and do a running double-jump over to the next bridge.
Run across this bridge and do the same type of double-jump you did before
to reach another yellow chip. Run to the right, all the while whacking and
jumping on the red plug enemies until you reach a hallway. Enter it by
pressing UP, then head right and whack or jump on the next two enemies.
Jump onto the cylinder-shaped platform and wait for an elevator to come
get you.
Ride it until it takes you to the furthest right-side of the room and hop
across to the ledge on the right. Head right, killing the enemies until you
reach a hallway. Enter it, then head right past the elevator, then over
a small hole. Whack the robot that gets in your way and keep going right
until you reach another yellow chip. Use it to start flashing yellow again,
then head back to the elevator.
Hop on the data bus bridge it takes you to, then run across it to reach
another elevator. Jump on this one, and then jump onto the next data bus
bridge. Run across the bridge until you reach a gray computer chip platform,
double-jump up to it and run past the next yellow chip, then jump up to the
bridge. Run across this one too until you reach an elevator, ride it and it
will take you to the tv containing your remote.
Press the button to end the level.

===================================
Remote 1.6 -Assault the Laua Island
===================================
Those darn Lauans! I've had enough of their shenannigans!
Lets go invade their island and teach them who they're messing
with!
As soon as the level starts out, you are being attacked by a giant
dragonfly. This must be the work of the Lauans! They must have sent
it to assassinate you! Whack it, then run to the right until you reach
a fire-spitting plant. Whack this one too, then keep moving and if you
see an egg, just ignore it. Run right until you reach a stream of what
looks like chicken legs or caveman clubs, and jump across the gap while
collecting them.
Keep going right but dodge the falling boulder(this must have been the
end of the perhistoric age) and then run down the ramp and jump over
the hole. Walk up the next ramp and kill the fire-spitting plant, then
run up the next ramp and whack the egg. Don't feel bad. Didn't you see the
way it was bouncing around? It clearly deserved it.
Take the moving platform in the lava over to the ledge on the right, but
look out for the pteradactyl swooping down to get you. Jump over to the
next ledge and then drop down while collecting the meat. Jump onto the
moving platform, then onto the next one, and then onto the ledge. Break
the box and eat the red fly to become INVINCIBLE! Thats right, nothing
can stop your path of destruction and fury now! Anything that touches
you will instantly DIE!
Drop down to the right, and keep going that direction until you reach a
lava waterfall. Holy smokes. Either this is the apocalypse or a volcano
just erupted. Since it sounds much cooler, and knowing how chaotic this
level has been so far, I'm going with apocalypse. Wait for a moving rock
to jump on, and then use it to get to the next one. From that one, hop
over to the ledge and go right to whack a fire-spitting plant and enter
a cave.
Head up the ramp to your right, then make your way across the rocky platforms
to reach the next ledge. Run over to the right and climb up the steps, then
wait for a moving rock to take you to the other side. Ride the next rock to
the other side, and then head right until you encounter some more lava. Use
the platforms to get up to the tv and claim your remote.
==============================
Remote 2.6 - Climb the Volcano
==============================
Start the level, whack the dragonfly, run to the right and whack
the fire-spitting plant. Keep running right past some bones and
up a ramp and keep going right past an egg and up another ramp.
Jump and collect the stream of meat while jumping over the hole.
Go right but dodge the boulder with the finesse of Indiana Jones,
then run to the right and jump over the next hole with a stream of
meat over it.
Run to the right and whack the plant, then go up the ramp and wait
for a moving rock to take you across the lava. Run and jump to the
ledge, then drop down while collecting the line of meat. Wait for
a levitating rock and use it to get to the next one, followed by
jumping onto a ledge with a tv on it. Whack it and eat the fly to
become invincible if you wish, then drop off the right side.
Run over to the right and climb up the steps with the skulls on them,
and past the egg until you reach a lava waterfall, or "lavafall". Wait
for a rock in the lava to float down, then use it to jump to the ledge
to the left at the top. Run up the slope, whack the egg, avoid the blood
drops, and whack the next egg. Climb up on the cobblestone wall, and move
to the north-east while avoiding the blood drops again.
When you reach a brown platform, drop onto it and double-jump on to
the ledge then run to the right and up two ramps to get to an egg
in front of a cave. Whack the egg, and enter the cave. Run to the
right, dodging the boulder and start climbing the cobblestone wall
to reach an extra life. Drop back down, and go to the right to kill
the plant. From here, you have two options. Take the lower & longer
path to get a hidden remote, or keep going and just get the normal
remote.
I don't want to force you to have to take one way, so I'm going to
branch it off into multiple paths here.
---------------------
|Path 1(Hidden Remote)|
---------------------
From where you killed the plant, drop down to where the skulls
are going but move to the left to avoid the lava. Wait for a
moving rock to show up that you can take across the lava, and
shortly after you should collect a hidden remote(h.6). Let
the rock take you all the way to the other side, and then
jump to the ledge.
Follow the skulls down to where they are going, and you should
land in a place you might recognize. It is the two rivers of
lava right before the tv for remote #1. Instead of going to
the tv this time, use the rocks to get across the rivers of
lava, whacking the pterodactyl, and then use the brown platforms
to get past the tv and to the other side of the river of lava
under it.
Run to the right and whack the demonspawn of Barney, then run
up the slopes until you reach a lava waterfall. Take the moving
rock to the ledge on the other side, then head up the slopes and
jump down in the direction of the lined-up bones while landing on
the triceratops so that it doesn't hurt you. Enter the cave.
Drop to the right, and kill the plant. Keep running to the right
and start climbing the wall. Climb down and to the north-east
just like before. Double-jump up to the ledge while avoiding
the blood drips, run up the ramps and enter the cave like you
did before. From here, go back to where the plant was before we
took this intersection and continue with Path 2.
---------------------
|Path 2(Normal Remote)|
---------------------
Run and jump to the ledge. Run and jump to the next ledge. Hop
up the platforms. Jump to the small one, and drop down onto the
ledge that the boulder is falling onto, but be careful not to get
hit. Run up the slopes and jump up the three platforms to reach the
one with four bones on it.
Hop onto the levitating rock, and then onto the next one. Jump onto
the two small brown ledges, then onto the next ledge. Hop up the step,
go past the bones and kill the plant. Hop up the next two ledges and
kill the triceratops. A meteor didn't take out the dinosaurs, you did!
Run and jump on to the next ledge.
Walk up to the river of lava and wait for a rock that can safely take
you across. While riding it, take out the pterodactyls then jump onto
the ledge the rock takes you to. Head right, and then left up the slope.
We begin our ascent up the volcano... make your way up until you encounter
some lava. No rock this time, so it looks lik we're gonna have to JUMP!
*phew* You made it.
Run up the slope and jump across another pit of lava. Run up the slope
and keep going until you have reached the television on top the volcano.
Press the button to cause the extinction of the dinosaurs.
********************
*4.7 - Fine Tooning*
********************
===========================
Remote 1.7 - Climb the Tree
===========================
For this remote, all you have to do is climb a tree. After you get past
all kinds of complicated gadegetry and gizmos, of course. Start up the
level and it will show you the tree you need to get to surrounded by bear
traps. That looks safe. As soon as you are in control of Gex head to the
east dodging sunflowers and eating carrots. Eventually you will come to
two giant dice. Sometimes the game decides it doesn't want to show enemy
sprites, so you may have been hit already. That's alright, just take it
a bit slower up through here.
To dodge the dice cubes, wait for the one on the left to touch the ground
and then IMMEDIATELY run under it and wait for the next cube to go up and
run under it too without getting hit. Repeat this process for all giant pairs
of dice we come across. Whack the giant bee up ahead and dodge the final pair
of dice. When you reach the hill, jump on it and head up to the top. Run to
the left and make a running jump to the next cliff. You can whack this red
bell to get the carrots if you want, it will make a noise confirming you have
hit it.
After you are done with all that nonsense, make another running jump to the
left and land on the cliff with a sign on it. "Hard Head Ahead"... hmmm..
wonder what that could me-.. oh my god a falling refrigerator look out!
Through this path there will be all sorts of things falling from the sky,
anvils included. Walk slowly through here and if you see something coming,
quickly turn the other direction and wait for the object to disappear.
When you make to the end of this madness, run and jump to the next cliff
on the left. Whack the bee, head up the small ramp, and get to the sloped
mountain. Be careful of the falling coconut-like bowling balls falling through
here and make your way to the top. Head to the right and hop on the log. Wait
for it to take you all the way to a platform next to a disappearing brown
block.
When the block disappears, jump over to the other platform.
Hop on the log, let it take you to the cliff on the other side and whack the
check-point. Head to the right and use the moving brown blocks to get up on
the cliff. Run to the right and use the next block to get up on the cliff with
the red bell on it. Whack it to make some brown blocks appear below, then drop
down. Head to the right until you reach the end of the cliff, and when the
brown blocks appear use them to get to the other side.
When you land on the cliff, whack the bell to get one of the blocks moving,
then whack the next bell on the opposite side. Use the moving blocks to get up
on the grassy platform, then hop onto the levitating log and use it to get
onto the next platform. Hop onto the next moving log and onto the next
platform, then onto the next log. Jump onto the next platform and make a
running-jump to the disappearing block on the left, then quickly press B to
double-jump when you land on it to get to the next platform.
Double-jump across the next two blocks on the left and land on the long
platform to the left. Head left until you reach the sign. You know the drill,
dodge the falling objects and make it to the left. Fall into the river and
whack the fish, then double-jump on to the other cliff. Head left past the
gated door and dodge the sunflower. Whack the boat to open two doors and raise
the boat's sails. Ignore all the information your brain just had to take in at
once and start going left. Dodge the sunflower and jump over to the other
side.
Dodge the next sunflower and whack the box open for health if you need it,
then keep going left. Use the blocks to reach the top of the cliff and whack
the target on the bell to get the blocks moving. Use the blocks to reach the
long platform on the top and once you land on it start running to the right.
When you reach a door, enter it. You will come out of a cave, head right but
look out for bear traps along the way. When you reach two stumps, use them to
get up to the top, then whack the bee.
Start heading left, once again looking out for bear traps. When you reach the
end, wait for a log to show up and hop onto it, but don't get hit by the bear
trap while you're waiting. Hop onto the levitating log that shows up, then
double-jump over to the cliff on the left. You can also make a running jump
using the platform with a tv box on the right, but just do whatever is best
for you. Its tricky, but you can make it.
Well, when you finally DO make it over there, whack the bee and make a running
jump over to the left to reach the next cliff. Go left past the rock and you
will reach a red bear trap and be at the place the level showed you when it
started. Do a running double-jump over the first bear trap and then double-
jump over the second bear trap on the giant stump, making sure to double-jump
over to the branch when you land on your tail.
Run to the left across the branch, and land on the next stump. Hop up the
branches and onto the tv button to get your remote.
=============================
Remote 2.7 - Storm the Castle
=============================
When the level starts up, it will show the daunting castle you have to storm
your way into. Heh, the king might as well have put up a sign that says
"Invade Here!!!" Anyways, remember that place you had to go to to open all the
doors and raise the boat's sail when you were getting the first remote? What?
You're doing this one first because it sounds cooler?! Argh, ok. I can agree
with you there.
Head left and dodge the sunflowers until you reach a pair of giant dice, wait
for the one on the left to touch the ground then quickly walk under both of
them. Do this for all following pairs of dice. Whack the bee and dodge the
dice, then head up the slope with all the carrots on it. Head past the door
and jump to the left to reach the next cliff, then run to the left and jump to
the following cliff.
Walk slowly through this next area, and when you see something falling,
quickly turn the other direction. Run until you reach the end, then run and
jump to the cliff on the left. Whack the bee and head left until you reach the
mountain with a bunch of ramps on it. Dodge the bowling balls while reaching
the top, then run all the way to the right until you reach the end. Wait for a
log and let it take you ALL the way to the other side.
Jump onto the platform, and when the block disappears, jump over to the other
one. Wait for a log and hop onto it, then jump onto the cliff and whack the
check-point.Use the moving blocks to get up on the cliff, then run to the
right and use the next block to get to the bell and whack it. Drop down, reach
the end of this cliff and double-jump across the three brown blocks to get to
the other side.
Whack this bell and the one opposite to it to get the blocks moving, then jump
on them to get to the grass platform above you. Jump onto the levitating log,
and then onto the next grassy platform. Get on the next log and hop onto the
next platform. Wait for the next log and hop on it, then the next platform.
Run and double-jump on the block to the left to reach the next platform, then
do the same with the following two blocks.
Up ahead is another one of those areas with falling objects, make your way
through it and drop in the river. Whack the fish and double-jump onto the
other side. Run past the gated door, then dodge the sunflower's hammers on the
left. Whack the bell to open all the doors in the level and raise the sail.
That boat is where you need to go. To get to it, head right past the sunflower
you just had to dodge and enter the newly-opened door.
You are now at the slope from the beginning of the level, run down it and keep
making your way to the right while whacking any fish that get in your way. Hop
your way up the sail and onto the log sticking out of the face of the cliff.
Whack the bee, and run to the right to get to the castle! Before we take care
of business here, I want to direct your attention to a hidden remote. First
climb up the castle, then make your way to the tower on the right.
Double-jump across the brown block and onto the ledge on the right to get your
hidden remote for this level. Now that we're done with that, drop off the
right side of the ledge to reach a tv box with a "fire"fly inside of it. Whack
it open and eat the fly to imbue Gex with the power to light things on fire
with his tail. Climb back up to the top of the castle and light the fuse on
the rocket by climbing onto it.
The rocket will blast off with Gex on it, taking you to the tv containing your
remote.

*EMERGENCY BROADCAST*
*********************
I think you get it by now, but the next world will be located through
the x13 Remotes needed gate. As a change of pace, before going through
that gate we're going to do a bonus level. Although when you are done
beating this level, you can go ahead and go through the gate.
*************************
*B.1 - Thursday the 12th*
*************************
Start by getting every skull in this room then entering the second door.
Grab all the skulls and enter the door on the far right. Get the skull
on the left, then hop across the chandelier on the right, get the skull
and enter the door. You will come out on top of a chandelier, quickly hop
to the right and get the skull on this ledge, then back across the chandelier
and to the ledge on the left.
Get the two skulls and enter the door on the far left. Get the three skulls
to the right, then run back to the left up the stairs and enter the door at
the top. Get the three skulls on your right then enter the second door here.
Hop across the chandelier and enter the next door. Go and hop across all the
way to the right to get all the skulls, then backtrack back to the door to
your left and enter it.
Get the skulls here by going all the way to the right end, then come back to
the second door you past and enter it. Quickly jump to the left and get the
skull before the chandelier falls, and if you fall, just re-enter the last
door you came through. When you are finally on the platform, Run all the way
to the left to get all the skulls, then hop back across the chandelier and
enter the third door you come across.
Make your way all the way to the left to get all the skulls on this floor,
then enter the door you are in front of. Make your way left to get all the
skulls, then drop down one floor to get the remaining four skulls. To get
back to the top, go all the way back to the door furthest to the left that
is inbetween two torches and enter it. When you come out, enter the door
again.
Run all the way to the left past the two doors and jump onto the ledge
with a door sitting on it by itself. Enter it, head up the stairs, and
get your first golden bonus remote.

*4.8 - Samurai Night Fever*
***************************
======================================
Remote 1.8 - Navigate the Power Towers
======================================
At first, I thought this was going to have me climbing electrocuting
phone lines. Then again, maybe I'm just weird. This level is really
easy, so start by going across the bridge to your right and down the
ramp while eating chinese food to your heart's content. Walk up ahead
and dodge the floating spiked thing, then use the power platform to fly
up to the top and kill the ninja.
Head right and run down the ramp, kill the next ninja and hop onto the
platform with chinese food on it. Jump across the floating platforms that are
hovering over some lava, then go right until you reach a gong. Whack it to
make the platform start going, then hop on to it and make your way to the top
platform with a tv on it. Whack the tv box and get the fly, then drop off the
platform to your right.
Run to the right until you reach a yellow wall, then run and jump while
holding UP on the directional pad to stick to the wall. Climb to the bottom
and drop where the four collectibles are(usually chinese food), and you will
land on a platform with a hidden remote(h.8). Jump over to your left and enter
the door to come out to the roofs where a ninja was before. Start running to
the right and make your way ALL the way back to the yellow wall again.
Climb your way across it and drop onto the platform, then double-jump to the
top one and climb the wall to your left. Use the moving platform to your right
to reach a gong that will open a door. Whack it, then use the platform to get
back to your left and enter the door you just opened. Run to the right and use
the yin/yang tower to get over to the next one, then run up the ramp and climb
up the wall to get going down the next one. Use the next yin & yang tower to
get to the next platform, then use the tower on the right and use it to land
on the next tower.
Stand at the right-most ledge and jump again to reach the next tower, then use
that one to get over to the ledge with the tv at the top. Run to the right and
use the moving platform to reach a gong. Whack it, then after it shows the
platform it made appear, move to the right and ride it to two more gongs.
Whack both gongs, then head back to the left and ride the
platform again until another platform comes down. Double-jump onto it, then
wait until you get to the top and jump to the left. This is definitely one of
the harder jumps to make in the game.
Wait for another moving platform to show up, then take it all the way to the
left where the tv containing your remote awaits.
========================================
Remote 2.8 - Ride the Floating Platforms
========================================
Another really easy level, even easier than the last. Pretty much all
you have to do here is find the area and do exactly what the level told you to
do. What do you mean that's what you always do anyways?! Well, whatever.
This level is a bit more simple than most. Start by running to the left,
killing the mosquito, dropping off the ledge and whacking the gong.
Climb the wall and enter the door you opened. Hop up the platforms to the
right before they disappear and reach the moving one on top. Let it take
you to the next ledge and jump down to it. Ride the next moving platform
until you get to the ledge with the ninja. Kill him, then walk to the right
until you reach a levitating platform. Take it up to a bridge and cross it.
Run all the way to the end until you reach ANOTHER moving platform and take
it to the roof. Hit the tv for some sweet invincibility then head to the right
end of the roof and ride the next moving platform to a ledge with chinese food
on it. Hop across the next two platforms and then make a running jump to the
ledge and "whack" the ninja. Get it, WHACK?! Like the mafia says?
Wait for the tower to come down, then run across it and drop down to the next
ledge and use the platform to go higher up. Run past the street lamp and
across the bridge, then reach the end and ride the moving platform to the gong
furthest to the right. Whack it, then jump down onto the ledge and run across
the tower you just lowered to reach your tv remote. I told you it was simple.
======================================
Remote 3.8 - Climb the Towering Temple
======================================
Compared to the last two levels, this is a very high contrast in difficulty.
This level is convulted and incredibly complex, and it utilizes areas from the
last two remote's levels so I HIGHLY reccommend you get those two first.
Anyways, once you start the level head to the left and drop off the ledge,
then whack the gong to open the door.
Head through the door you just opened and make your way to the very far right
end of the area until you reach the first gong. Whack it and it will lower a
tower at the top of a ramp that you will get to later. Once you have activated
the gong, go all the way back to the left and enter the door you came through.
Start running to the right and cross the bridge then head down the ramp and
use the power tower to get up to where the ninja is, kill him if you need to,
then run down the ramp to the right and kill another ninja. Hop up on the
ledge you'll come across, then make your way across the platforms floating
over lava. Run to the right and whack the gong to make the platform start
floating, then take it up to more platforms that you can use to get all the
way to the top where a tv will be waiting for you.
Drop off the ledge to the right and land on a roof, then drop off the right
edge of the roof and make your way right to a yellow sticky-wall. Hop over to
it and press UP to stick to it, then climb across it until you reach a
platform. Make your way up the platforms and climb the next yellow yall to the
top of the ledge. Use the moving platform to get over to a ledge with a gong.
Whack it, then take the platform back over to the door you opened and enter
it.
Make your way across all the power towers and platforms here until you reach
the VERY LAST gong ALLLL the way on the right end of the area. Once you whack
it, it will open the other door from the beginning of the level. Head back
there and enter that door. Once you're in, head up the ramp and use the yin &
yang power tower to reach the ledge. Hop down the disappearing platforms and
land on the ledge. Run up the ramp and enter the door.
Either dodge or kill the annoying guy with the sword, then stick yourself to
the yellow wall to the right and start climbing up. Drop yourself off and hop
across the lava, then ride the moving platform to reach a levitating one, hop
off the levitating platform and double-jump onto the next yellow wall. Drop
yourself off again and use the two platforms to get to the middle ledge. Hop
onto the platform with the four collectibles and double-jump up.
Hop over to the left and run up the ramp and kill the ninja. After you have
murdered your 100th ninja for today, take the moving platform to the ledge on
the right. Run to the end and wait for a platform to come down and take you
higher up. Be careful of waiting on the platform in front of you though, as it
disappears. After you have taken the elevator up to the top of the roof, run
to the left and hop on the tv button to claim your reward.
**********************
*4.9 -- This Old Cave*
**********************
====================================
Remote 1.9 -- Watch for Falling Lava
====================================
This remote is ridculously easy to get. I think the developers got lazy,
either that or they are really just cutting you a break. Anyhow, whack that
dragonfly and head over to the right and hop across the lava using the tiny
platform. Next, climb up the wall and then drop down and head over to the
right where there are more platforms.
Hop up to the third one and jump to the right so that you will land next to a
climbable wall. Climb it all the way to the right and drop down. Jump all the
way to the top of the platforms, collecting onions along the way, until you
reach two eggs. Either hop on them or ignore them, but start climbing up the
wall either way.
Avoid the droplets of lava here and make your way up the next wall. Once you
are at the top you will see the TV, hop on the button and voila, you have the
next remote.
Easy, right?
==================================
Remote 2.9 -- Ride the Steam Vents
==================================
Start by going to the right until you reach the platforms from before that led
up to the eggs. Instead of heading up the platforms, keep on going to the
right past the ramp until you reach the platform with the crazy green lizard.
Kill your insane bretheren (Man this game is messed up) and then whack the
checkpoint to ensure your safety.
From here, the platform you need to be on is below you, but be careful because
there is a pit below that could kill you. Once you have successfully made it
down here, ride the moving rock across the lava. Head right and avoid the
droplet of lava coming out of the wall, but stop once you have reached the
geyser. Use it to propel yourself upward to the top-middle platform.
Using the platform, reach the Gecko paw box and eat the fly inside if you need
it. From here, kind of do a slight running jump to the next geyser platform
below. Use the geyser to reach yet another geyser platform, and then use that
one to get on the sloped platform to the left.
--------------------------
|Path 1(Hidden Remote)(h.9)|
--------------------------
If you cross all of the platforms to the east of here, you will find the
hidden remote on a ledge. Be careful of the egg enemy along the way.
---------------------
|Path 2(Normal Remote)|
---------------------
Head up the slope to your left, but stop before you reach the top so you don't
get hit by the dragonfly. Still heading left, hop across all the platforms
until you reach a vertical trail of collectibles leading downward. Follow
their path by dropping down, and then drop off to the left. Hop over to the
long horizontal platform to your left, dodging the fire balls that come out of
the plant. Whack the plant to kill it, then move over to your left and step
onto the button to claim your remote.
======================================
Remote 3.9 -- Bounce Up Over the Chasm
======================================
Another stupidly easy remote. Head all the way to the right, ignoring any
platforms along the way, until you reach a crazy fast green lizard. Whack that
sucker, and then head up all of the platforms from here until you reach your
tv remote.
Seriously, that's it. It's that easy.
***********************************
*4.10 -- Honey, I Shrunk the Gecko*
***********************************
================================
Remote 1.10 - Charge to the Top
================================
First off, I just want to let you know that I think this is one of the more
complicated maps in the game, but don't let that intimidate you. Once the
level begins, head over to the left to get a charge, and then head all the way
to the right and use the super bounce. Whack the next two bugs along the way
and get the next charge to use the elevator.
Hop off to your left, as this direction is where your next charge is located.
Be careful of the robot along the way, and then after you are charged head
back over the gap with the elevator to get on the right side. Whack the walker
here and use the super bounce, making your way left as fast as you can. Once
you reach the platforms, hop up them and climb the wall all the way to the end
without stopping.
Drop down on and cross the data bus bridge quickly, as you will be out of
charge soon. Enter the door at the end of the hallway. Head to the right and
whack the robot, making your way to the long horizontal platforms with the
electricity-producing generators on them. Make your way across them until you
reach the next door, but be careful because it is guarded by a bouncing chip.
Whack the checkpoint on your left, then head to your right, whacking robots
and getting a charge. Go all the way back to the left and use the super bounce
and climb up the wall. Drop down to get another charge and start climbing the
next wall. Go all the way across the data bus bridge and land in the hallway.
Whack the robot, then head to the right to whack another robot and get another
charge.
----------------------------
|Path 1 - Hidden Remote(h.10)|
----------------------------
Do you see the yellow wall directly under the door and to the left of the
super bounce? Climb it all the way around to reach the hidden remote, and then
climb back the other way around to keep going for the normal remote for this
level.
----------------------
|Path 2 - Normal Remote|
----------------------
Use the super bounce to get up to a door and enter it, then from here cross
the generator bridges until you reach a room with a little robot and another
door. Enter the next door, then head over to the right to get a charge and
keep going right to use all of the super bounces and reach the hallway with
your tv remote. Push the button to finish the level.
==================================
Remote 2.10 -- Find the I.O Tower
==================================
From here, head to the left just like before to get the charge, and then head
to the right and use the super bounce. Defeat the bugs, and then get the
charge at the end of the room to use the elevator. Hop off to the left and
head all the way to the end of the corridor to get charged, then head all the
way back to the right end of the room to use the super bounce.
Quickly make your way across the data bus bridge and platforms as fast as you
can. Once you have reach the left end of the room again, start going up the
platforms and start climbing the wall all the way to the end without stopping.
Drop on and cross the data bus bridge, then enter the door at the end of the
platform. Cross the generator platforms to your right until you reach the end,
where you will be in a room with another robot and a door.
Enter the door and whack the checkpoint to your left, turning back to the
right to get a charge. Once you are charged, head all the way back past the
checkpoint to use the super bounce and climb the wall to the top. Get charged
again and start climbing the next wall. Head across the data bus bridge and
into the hallway, whacking the walker robot and using the elevator if you are
still charged.
Hop over to the right and whack the robot, then start climbing the microchips.
Whack the bouncing plug here, then head down the hallway, whacking a bug in
the process. Climb the yellow wall until you reach a large panel of yellow
squares. Drop down the middle of them to land on a microchip, then jump and
whack the plug to the left. Run and jump to the left to land on the next
microchip platform, and then drop off to the left to land next to a
door.
Enter the door, and then head to the right and climb the platforms to reach
the top of the microchip. Hop over to the left onto the I.O tower and wait for
the moving platform. Ride it all the way to the top and hop into the left
hallway. Head to the end and hop on the button to claim your next remote.
=======================================
Remote 3.10 -- Charge the A.C.T. Steps
=======================================
Head to the left to get charged, then to the right to use the super bounce.
Whack the bugs and get the charge to the right to use the elevator, which is
also called an A.C.T. step. Hop off and head to the left to get the next
charge, and then head all the way to the right end of the room to use the
super bounce and cross the data bus bridge to the left as fast as you can.
Once you reach the left end of the room again, head up the platforms and climb
the wall all the way to the end before your charge runs out. Land on and cross
the next data bus bridge all the way to the right and enter the door at the
end of the hallway. Whack the robot to your right and cross the generator
platforms until you reach a room with a bouncing plug enemy and a door. Kill
the enemy, then head into the door.
Whack the checkpoint to your left, then head all the way to the right to get a
charge and then back to the left to use the superbounce and climb the wall up
to the top. Drop and get the charge and start climbing the next wall to the
right. Drop down and jump on the data bus bridge, crossing it all the way to
the right into a hallway with a robot. Use the A.C.T. step if you are still
charged, if not there is a charging chip right next to it that you can use.
Hop over to the right, whacking the robot and jumping up the microchips until
you reach a plug enemy. Whack it, head down the hallway and whack the bug
enemy, and then when you reach the end start climbing the yellow wall until
you reach a big panel full of yellow squares. Start climbing all the way up
them until you reach a door and enter it. Whack the incoming robot, then head
to the right to get a charge.
Run all the way to the right end of the room, whacking the walker robot and
hopping up the platforms to ride the first A.C.T. step. Hop on the next step
to ride it upwards, and jump off where you see the robot and whack it so you
don't get hurt. Hop over to the right onto the next A.C.T. step before your
charge runs out, and when it stops quickly hop onto the next one. Jump onto
the data bus bridge and cross it all the way to the left until you reach the
TV. Hop on that button and the final remote for this level is yours.
*******************
*4.11 -- Poltergex*
*******************
======================================
Remote 1.11 -- Ascend the Ghost Tower
======================================
Head to your left and enter the upper-left door. Hop across the two
chandeliers into the next room. Hop across another two chandeliers into
another room. Same thing here, but with more platforms. Enter the door when
you get to it, then head down the ramp and ride the vertical moving platform
when you reach it. Enter the door at the top. Climb up the wall to your right
and jump over to the horizontal paltform to your left.
Keep going across these platforms until you reach a frankenstein, and stop to
whack it so it doesn't get in your way. Keep heading the direction you were
going before until you reach a door and enter it. Cross the iron-plated wall
here all the way to the end until you reach the next door. Enter it. Run past
and dodge the axe-wielding armor suits and ride the vertical platform at the
end of the hallway.
Whack the pumpkin up here and back to the left end of the hallway to reach the
next door. Enter it, and start crossing the chandeliers and platforms to the
left until you reach yet another door. Enter this one too, and you will be
somewhere familiar. The room you need to be in! Head past the fireplace and up
the steps, dodging the head the ghost throws at you as well as the ghost.
Head up the next set of steps doing the same thing. Hop across and "head" up
even more steps. (Hardy har har.) Hop across again and go up the steps again,
whacking any ghosts along the way. Finally, hop across the next to last gap
and make your way up the last set of stairs to reach the tv you have been
looking for. Hop on the button to get the remote.

==========================================
From here, head into the left-most door. Go all the way down the hall to the
right and enter the next door. Head down to the right and whack the box if you
need it (You don't.) and start climbing the wall. Drop off at the top and

right, entering the next door you find. Head down the stairs and to the right
and start climbing the morgue. When you reach the top, start hopping across
all the platforms with skulls to the right, but DO NOT FALL OFF because you
will have to go back and climb back up again. Once you reach the tv, push the
button and this part of the world is finished.
============================================
Remote 3.11 -- Smash the Eight Blood Coolers
============================================
ARGH! I HATE these missions! HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE!!!!!! Wait, am I
supposed to be writing a walkthrough for you? Ok, if I have to. (I swear I'll
get you back for this.)
Directly above you is the first blood cooler. Head up the steps to the left to
collect it(By whacking it, if you have forgotten.) and then head to the
bottom-left door on this floor. Head to your right and into the next door. Run
over to the right and whack the box for some sweet-tasting invinicbility fly,
and then climb up the wall and enter the door. Run past the suits of armor to
the left, doding their axes.
Hop over the stupid cauldron with the lava and what not, and dodge the next
two suits of armor with their axes. Climb the iron-plated wall all the way to
the end here and smash the second blood cooler. Drop down and enter the door
