*PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE BEGINNING!!!
After completing the first level, you could select the next three. Before
starting the second level, you will have to complete level three to get the
Bird-Man Widget trasformation.
------------------
Stage 1 Mega Slank
------------------
Watch out because the gators below you could shoot you. Keep moving to the
right and kill the bug that gets in your way. Jump over the cactuses because
they will hurt you. Keep moving and kill the flies that get in your way. After
you kill two flies, the worms will start appearing so go slowly. Try to kill
them from a distance because it is the best way. There will still be a few
flies as you move to the right. Keep moving to the right and when you get to
the area where you're on the ground instead of elevated platforms, you will
only see flies. At the end of this path will be a gator. Be careful because
they shoot rapidly and take a while to kill. Jump on the platform where that
gator was and jump down the tube.
Wait down on this low platform. The ghost to the far right won't attack you
unless you jump while it's looking in your direction. The ghost above you will
attack you by falling off the platform and chasing you. When it starts falling
off the highest platform, start jumping and shooting. Keep shootingit before it
reaches you. Now get on that platform with the money on it. Now keep moving to
the right. Take your time with these bugs. Don't fall down there to attack
until they are far away. When they come near you, jump back onto the platform
to the left. Don't jump the gap yet. Move to the edge and you will see a gator
to the far right. Attack it from here and avoid its shots. Jump over the
platform when you kill it. There will be another at the next gap so use the
same strategy to kill it. Jump over there when you kill it and grab the items.
Climb down the ladder.
Climb down to the very bottom of the ladder and start moving to the left. Watch
out for the nibbler ahead. Kill the nibbler and move all the way to the left.
Kill the gator up there and grab the gun upgrade. Move to the right up on this
platform and grab the heart. Now fall down to the lowest platform and climb
down the ladder. Wait at the top of the ladder. Let the fly fly by you and it
will fly off of the screen. Now fall down and land on the platform above the
spikes. Keep jumping to the right along these platforms. Climb down this
ladder. Fall down to the bottom and kill the bug. Just avoid these nibblers and
climb to the top. Fall down to the left and through the doorway.
Move to the right and kill the enemies when you reach them. There will be a
gator up ahead after the nibbler on an elevated platform so be careful. Now
fall down to the right onto the lower platform. Move all the way to the left
and kill the ghost there. Grab the gun upgrade and move back to the right.
Climb to the top and jump across these conveyor belts. Avoid the flies when you
see them. Go across the middle of these obstacles and climb to the top platform
when you see a few conveyor belts. Don't worry about saving up too much health
here because there will be an item that will fill your health up all the way at
the end of this path. Jump to the door at the end. Now you will have to fight
Mega Slank. Just keep shooting him from where you are and when he's hit, he
will be stunned for a second. Keep attacking him as quickly as possible and you
will move into him. Get hurt, it shouldn't matter. He will jump to the left.
Now look to the left and keep attacking him from where you are and he should
die quickly.
----------------------
Stage 2 Bizzarre Brain
----------------------
*NOTE - Before starting this stage, you have to play stage 3 to get the bird-
man transformation. At the area where you see the planet, you could switch
stages so finish stage three before you start this stage.
Stay where you start and kill the hermit crab from a distance. Now start moving
to the right and there will be some clams. Be VERY careful because if they hit
you, you could easily fall off the platform and die. Time your jumps and shots
perfectly to get those clams without getting hurt yourself. Avoid that pot
because it will attack you. Keep moving to the right and kill the hermit crab
and the crabs. You will reach a clam on a platform. Kill it and jump on that
platform. Now jump to the right and onto that platform. Climb up the ladder
from there. Up here, you could grab the items that will give you more maximum
MP. Climb back down the ladder when you are done collecting the items. Move to
the right and keep killing any and all enemies that get in your way. At the
end, climb on the platform where the crab was, and jump to the right to get
into the door.
Now kill the clam to the right. Now transform into Bird-Man Widget and fly
across these areas and onto the next large platform with no enemies around.
Turn back into normal Widget. Keep moving all the way to the right as far as
you can and kill all of the enemies that get in your way. Turn into a mouse at
the end to sneak into the door. Now there are two paths you could go by, take
the lower path. Kill the crab and then go back and take the high path. You have
to take the high path here to get past the big ice wall up ahead. Fall down the
hole to the far right and then go to the left to get down the ladder. Now keep
moving to the right and avoid those little fuzz balls. Go down the ladder to
the far right and grab the items. You could get the item in the bottom right by
going next to the area and crouching and moving to the right. You will slide
under and grab the item. Now do the same to get out and go back up the ladder.
Go up to the top and you will have to jump across these blocks to the left.
Kill the enemies when you can and go through the door. This boss is a little
difficult just because the platforms are slippery. You have to attack its head
and nothing else. If you hit its hands, it will bounce off. It's only attacks
are moving around a lot and throw icicles in random directions which are never
aimed at you. Just keep attacking his head until he falls.
-----------------
Stage 3 Dr. Dante
-----------------
Move quickly to the right because if you stay in one spot for too long, the
snake will shoot at you. Quickly kill it and start moving to the right. This
jump is a little difficult to make but you could still make it. If you don't
want to risk a death, turn into a mouse to make the jump. Make the next jump
without jumping too high and there will be a snake with a few bats there. Avoid
the bats and climb the ladder at the top. Wait near the middle of the ladder
and let the bats fly by you. Now start moving to the right and kill the bear.
Fall down and kill the snake next. Now leave the bats above you alone. Keep
moving to the right and sneak under the bear. Grab the health if you need it
and go throught the door.
Move slowly to the right and let the fruit fall from the tree. Attack them all
and start moving to the right when they all die. Now get on the higher platform
to the right and let the fruit fall. It should jump off the edge now. Jump onto
the branch and kill the bat. Climb up the ladder here. Start moving to the
right here and kill the enemies. Jump the branches at the end and if you land
on the bottom branch, it's ok. You could jump onto those knots in the tree to
the far right to get onto the highest branch and up the ladder. Kill the snake
and fruit to the right. Climb to the top platform and to the left to climb up
to the next screen. Let the bat fly off the screen and the fruit to jump off
the branch. There will still be one there so kill it. Now jump onto the branch
to the left and turn into a mouse. Sprint and jump to make it to the next
branch. Now jump through the hole in the wall.
Kill the cobra from a distance here and jump the gap. Now you will reach some
knights. Shoot them for them to charge at you and then jump over them. Keep
moving to the right and turn into a mouse to get into that small area where the
ladder is. Climb up the ladder. Climb to the top of the ladder to get the bear
jumping. Now climb back down to the middle and it will jump off to the right.
Climb onto the platform the bear was on and jump the gap. Go into the door to
fight Dr. Dante. He's not to hard. You can't shoot him when he looks like a
friendly scientist but you have to shoot him when he looks like he should. Stay
close when he turns into Dr. Dante so you could keep attacking him. He will
throw a wrench every once in a while that will float in the air and then come
down on you. Run away whenever it's been floating for a while or you will get
hit. Just keep attacking him until he falls.
-----------------
Stage 4 Flim Flam
-----------------
Immediately jump to avoid the rolling enemy. Move to the right until you see
the bouncer. Keep shooting at it and stay behind the wall because it will take
the enemy a while to sneak under it. Now keep moving to the right and kill the
poacher. Stay on the lower platforms and avoid the enemies. Jump the gap and
kill the bouncer. Now keep moving to the right and do a light jump over this
gap. Kill this bouncing enemy that will only bounce in one spot. Keep going for
a few more of those rolling enemies. You will have to jump some acid here. Keep
jumping it and land on the blocks. Kill the enemies you will see here as fast
as possible. Enter the tent at the end of this path.
Wait here where you start and let the rolling enemy come to you. Jump over it
when it's near you and get on the higher platform. Now keep going to the right
along this platform and avoid or kill the enemies up ahead. Avoid the spike up
ahead and jump through the hole. Try to always stay on the highest platforms.
Get on the very high platform with the blocks on it up ahead for a secret. You
could walk through these blocks. If you can't, try jumping and moving to the
right. Grab the health down there and move back to the left. Fall down to the
lowest platform and start moving to the right. Kill the dino up ahead, it will
be a little difficult because it's hard to jump over the lower shot, you could
duck under the higher shots. Go through the doorway after you kill it.
Kill the fireball here. If you want the extra life down below, turn into the
bird form of Widget and grab it. Now jump the gap and avoid the first falling
arrow. Turn into a bird and avoid the next. Get onto the higher route and fly
over the rolling enemy. Now turn back into normal Widget and continue to the
right. Jump to the next gap and turn into a bird here. Fly across here and keep
moving to the right either killing or avoiding all enemies. Get into the door
when you reach it. Now you have to fight Flim Flam. This fight isn't hard, it's
just annoying. You will see three figures flash above you. You have to guess
which one is the real one and shoot it when it appears by itself. It will drop
a flame and shoot at you. Just keep aiming up and guessing. A good tip for
using an emulator is to use save states while they are flashing. When you see
which is the real one, load the saved state and attack that one. Keep doing
that until he falls.
---------------
Stage 5 Ratchet
---------------
Fall down one platform and you should be one above the pig. From here, you
could shoot it and it will charge towards you but will never hit you. Keep
doing that until it dies and continue to the right. Keep killing the enemies
and jump the gaps when you reach them. Kill the plant at the end and you will
see a pig guarding the only way out. You will have to lose some health here.
Turn into rock man and jump down there. Punch it once for it to die and grab
the MP refill. Now turn back into nomral Widget and climb down the ladder. Kill
the plant to fill your health with the item. Go down and kill this pig the same
way you kill the first pig. Now keep moving to the left and kill the master.
Fall down to the left and go down the ladder. Kill these two plants from a
distance and kill the pig up ahead the same way you killed the first. Go
through the door.
Shoot the master to the right from here and give the pig time to walk off the
screen. Now move to the right and avoid the plant. Go down the ladder only if
you want to increase your maximum health capacity. I don't recommend it because
you need to use too much MP and you'll lose a bit of health so try to stay away
from there. The higher ladder will only give you a gun upgrade where you will
also lose a bit of MP and health so I'd also avoid that. Just stay on this main
path and continue to the right. Kill the pig to the right and turn into a mouse
to get through the hole. Turn back into normal widget to kill that plant. You
will have to turn into a mouse again afterwards to sneak through the next hole.
Grab the MP refill here and turn into a bird. You could go through the middle
blocks up top. Go up there and to the left for the item. Hide and wait for the
enemy to disappear again. Now quickly go by it and turn into nomral widget on
the lower platform. Look at the bricks you walk on. You could fall through the
bricks that look different so pay attention. Jump over the pig and go through
the door at the end.
Go to the right and kill the eye. If you need health and can spare some MP,
then turn into a mouse. You could go through the blocks that look different on
the bottom right section of this area. Grab the health and get back out. Now
jump to the right and kill that plant on the lone platform. Keep going and
sneak by the lizard enemy when it disappears and go through the door for the
boss fight. Now he will appear in one of six spots along the side on each
platform. He will throw one straight object. When you hit him, he will shoot at
you so get ready to avoid it. You could go down platforms by holding down and
jumping. Keep going after him and avoid his shots until he falls.
