1. I n t r o d u c t i o n
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==============================================================================
I learned about this game by coincidence on a board that had nothing to do
with the game, and being an avid platformer fan, I checked up the game and
instantly knew that I was going to buy it, even before knowing that its price
was so cheap. Well, it turned out that this game was well worth the money I
spent for it, and although it's a fairly short game, it can be challenging and
above all, it's a fun game like I haven't played in a while. To think I could
have missed this great platformer if I hasn't been on that board on that day..
Few people knows about this game, but if you enjoy platformers, I urge you to
try out this game, and I hope my walkthrough will help you complete it.

walkthrough for finding the Crystal Gems as the checklists are not accurate
or the checklists along with the walkthrough.
LEVEL 1 -------------
*********** a) Chimerum ******************************************************
-------------
From the starting point, go straight and jump on the vine. While on it, jump
to avoid the spikes. Then, keep going straight and jump over the stepy stones
to reach the other side. Don't take too much time as they fall after a while.
Go on until you reach a low cliff. Climb it up, then jump on the green pad on
the ground and you'll notice that some purple plants around will open,
revealing items. After jumping on the green pad, hurry to the left before the
plants close and quickly grab your first CRYSTAL GEM (1/10) in the plant at
the left.
Then, keep climbing up and kill the enemy here. Go right and grab your second
CRYSTAL GEM (2/10). Then, go down and jump on the stepy stones to reach the
other side. Don't forget to grab the CRYSTAL GEM (3/10) at the right. Go
straight and you'll meet Leon. Then, jump on the vine and you'll see another
vine at the left. Switch to this one and you'll land on a small cliff with a
CRYSTAL GEM (4/10).
Go back on the vine and stay on it until the end. Then, use the double jump
to jump on the platforms and reach the other side. Break the cocoons at the
right to find a CRYSTAL GEM (5/10). Keep going and you'll see a flying lizard.
After talking to Leon, jump on the vine behind to reach the next area. Go
straight and double jump to reach the top. Jump on the other vine here to
reach yet another area. Keep climbing up until you reach the top. Once you've
reached the top, after double jumping over the large gap at the end, turn
around to see a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10) floating in the air. Use the double jump
to reach it.
Carry on and jump on the vine at the end to reach the next area. Exit the
cave to end up in a more open area. Start by going left and climb to the top
of the cliff. Jump on the green pad here to open the purple plants and
quickly go back down the cliff before the plants close. Hurry to the plant
with the CRYSTAL GEM (7/10) and grab it. Then, go straight and jump on one of
the moving platforms. Try jumping on the one with the stepy stones next to it
so you can use them to reach the large platform in the center of the moving
ones. There's a CRYSTAL GEM (8/10) on it.
Then, jump back on the moving platform and jump to the area with a cave when
you pass next to it. At the end of the cave is another CRYSTAL GEM (9/10). Go
back on the moving platformers and jump to the area on the other side. Climb
up to the area above and defeat all the enemies that show up. Then, go on and
enter the cave. Defeat all the enemies on the other side. Now, carry on and
go left to see stepy stones by the wall at the left. Jump on them to reach
the small area on the other side and defeat the enemy here. Then, break the
cocoon in the center to collect the last CRYSTAL GEM (10/10).
Then, go back to the previous area and climb up the cliff to find the EGG and
teleport back to Leon. Talk to Leon and visit the shop to buy upgrades with
the Klokkies you collected, then leave the level and enter the next one on the
world map.

LEVEL 2 ------------
*********** b) Bakuldo *******************************************************
------------
At the start, go in the left path and jump on the vine. Try to collect static
electricity while you're on the vine so you can charge up a bomb. When you see
the spikes on the vine, jump over them and grab the first CRYSTAL GEM (1/10)
in the air. Then, when you get off the vine, you'll see a metallic shell
nearby. Blow it open using the Electric Bomb attack for the second
CRYSTAL GEM (2/10).
Then, go back to the start and go in the right path and jump on the vine at
the right to enter the Bakuldan territory. Avoid the obstacles on the vine to
reach it. Here, kill your first Bakuldan. You'll need to kill eight. Go on
and defeat the second Bakuldan a little further on. Continue and defeat the
two other Bakuldans here. Jump up and kill the fifth one. Then, enter the
cave and go left for the sixth Bakuldan. There should be a metallic shell
here, also. Break it open using the Electric Bomb attack or come back here
when you have the Bakuldan transformation and throw a bomb on it to find a
CRYSTAL GEM (3/10) inside. Then, go a little further into the cave for the
seventh Bakuldan. Then, go to the end of the cave and kill the last one. You
can now transform into a Bakuldan.
First thing, spot the worm nearby and throw a bomb at its mouth while in your
Bakuldan form. Blow it up to reveal an alcove behind with a CRYSTAL GEM (4/10)
inside. Then, go right and you'll see a force field blocking your way. Place
down a bomb next to the emitter to blow it up and bring down the force field.
Then stand in the blue teleporter to be brought back at the entrance.
Go in the right path again and transform into a Bakuldan. Throw a bomb into
the hole in the boulder blocking the way straight ahead to blow it up and
clear the path. Go straight ahead and keep going straight until you reach
another force field. Take it down by blowing up the emitter, then turn back
into Scaler and jump on the cliff above. Go straight and you'll come to a
higher cliff. Transform into the Bakuldan and throw a bomb in the flower bulb
nearby, then jump on the pad to go up to the top of the cliff.
Carry on and defeat all the enemies ahead. Then you'll see another force
field. Put down a bomb between the two emitters to blow both of them and the
force field will go down. Jump on the stepy stones at the left to reach
another force field. Put down a bomb between the two emitters to take down the
force field. Continue straight and break the metallic shell here with a bomb
to find a CRYSTAL GEM (5/10) inside.
Then, blow up the boulder here too by throwing a bomb in the hole. Enter the
cave and jump down to the next boulder. Blow it up, then go outside and jump
on the stones to reach the other side. Blow up the boulder here too and go in
the cave. Defeat the enemies here, then blow up the other boulder blocking the
way and go out of the cave. Go straight and defeat the enemies to get a
CRYSTAL GEM (6/10).
Continue straight and traverse the cave. Outside, go down and throw a bomb in
the flower bulb, then jump on the pad to go up to the top of the cliff. Defeat
the enemies here, then use the other flower to reach the cliff above. Enter
the cave here and blow up the explosive mushrooms in your way with bombs.
Cross the ledge to reach the other side and jump on the vine. You'll land in
another cave. Go to the end of the cave and blow up the boulder in your way,
then go out to find a force field. Put down a bomb between the six emitters
and wait until it explodes to take down the force field.
Go straight and defeat all the small enemies. Then, you'll face a Dragon War
Beast. Avoid his first attack, then when he uses his punch attack, jump to
avoid it and hit him while his fist is stuck in the ground. Repeat the process
until he's defeated and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (7/10) at the end of the fight.
Then, blow up the boulder ahead and go outside. Jump on the platforms to reach
the other side and go straight ahead for the EGG at the end.
Back at the entrance, go in the right path again and this time, jump on the
left vine. Once on the ground, climb up the path to the top. Once there,
before going on the next path, jump on the small cliff at the left of the path
behind you to find a metallic shell. Break it open with a Bakudan bomb and
you'll find a CRYSTAL GEM (8/10) inside. Then, climb down the next path.
Defeat the enemies at the bottom of the path and start climbing up the next
path ahead. Avoid the slimes and once you reach the end, throw a Bakudan
bomb in the worm's mouth to blow it up and reveal a CRYSTAL GEM (9/10) in
the alcove behind. Then, climb to the top using the double jump and go on the
path with the slimes. At the end, defeat the enemy and grab the last CRYSTAL
GEM (10/10). Then, double jump to reach the platform with the EGG. Talk to
Leon and exit the level. Enter the next one on the world map.

BOSS ----------------
*********** c) Iguana King ***************************************************
----------------
For the first boss of the game, you'll need to transform into your Bakuldan
form. First, you'll need to bring down the force field around Iguana King. Put
down a bomb near one of the emitters and hit it to make it explode (Bakuldans
don't take damage from the bombs they set). Then, put down a bomb next to the
second emitter and make it explode to take down the force field. Then, throw
bombs at Iguana King during that time and avoid his earthquake attacks.
Now there are four emitters. You'll have to blow up all emitters pretty fast
or they will keep on reappearing. Either place a bomb near each and hit it to
make it explode quicker or try to have the enemies hit the bomb to make it
explode. Either way you choose, quickly set the bombs and blow up all the
emitters to take down the force field. This time, Iguana King will chase you
around. Try to stay away from him and throw him bomb when you have the chance.
The force field will then be back and the emitters are now scattered around
the area making it trickier to take down the force field. Plus, Iguana King
will attack with his earthquake attacks and the small enemies will also come
after you. Do the same as you did previously, put down a bomb near each
emitter and let the earthquake or small enemies hit it to make it explode
faster. Blow up all the emitter to bring down the force field and throw bombs
at Iguana King until he is defeated.
LEVEL 3 ------------
*********** d) Klonium *******************************************************
------------
At the start of this level, go straight and jump over the stepy stones, then
go left to the area below and kill all the spiders. Then, jump on the green
pad on the ground and run to the last purple plant before it closes and grab
the CRYSTAL GEM (1/10) inside. Then, go up and defeat all the enemies here.
You'll need to take down five Krocks total in this level before gaining the
new transformation. After defeating the two Krocks here, continue and jump on
the other green pad here to open the plants and grab the CRSTAL GEM (2/10)
inside the plant at the left.
Then, climb up the wall and go to the far right. Jump on the green pad here
to open the purple plants and quickly run to the far left to grab the CRYSTAL
GEM (3/10) inside the plant before it closes. If you have difficulty getting
to it in time, come back here later when you have the Krock transformation
and roll to the plant instead.
Then, enter the cave ahead and jump on the floating platform, then on the
platform in the center and defeat all the enemies. Leave the cave then and
go straight. Jump on the spinning platforms to cross to the other side. Keep
going on and you'll come across two more Krocks. Defeat them, then go on and
jump on the stepy stones and platforms to reach the other side. You'll need
to fight the last Krock here. You can now transform into a Krock.
Go straight and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (4/10). Then, get in the slide in your
Krock form and jump over the gaps until you reach the end. You'll end up in
a Cannon Flower. Launch yourself on the island at the right. Then, go in the
slide here and press the turbo button to go up (check options - controls in
the menu), then jump over the gap and you'll land in a new area. Here, go in
the tunnel at the left and avoid the holes. Jump over the gap at the end and
grab the CRYSTAL GEM (5/10) at the left of the slide.
Then, go in the slide to reach the next area. Here, climb up the wall in your
normal form to reach the top and go at the end of the passage. Jump on the
vine here to the next area. Jump on the stepy stones to reach the other side
and go straight, then right to see a metallic shell. Use an Electric Bomb to
blow it open (you get Electric Bombs from the static electricity you gather
while on vines) to reveal a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10) inside. Then, go up and in the
slide. Use the turbo button and the jump button to leap over the gaps and at
the end you'll find an EGG.
Back at the start of the level, go back to the Cannon Flower and this time,
launch yourself on the island at the left. There's a CRYSTAL GEM (7/10) right
here. Then, go in the slide to reach the next area. Here, go in the Cannon
Flower at the right. You'll need to pass through the doors under the time
limit. Then, go in the other Cannon Flower and do the same as before, only
now the path is longer and harder.
At the end of the path, jump on the cliff above and press the green pad on
the ground to open the purple plants. Backtrack and follow the trail of
lianas on the ground until you reach the last plant and quickly grab the
CRYSTAL GEM (8/10) inside the plant before it closes. Then, go back to the
end and jump on the vine to reach the next area. Here, jump in the Cannon
Flower.
While in the course, the path will split in three ways near the end. Go in
the path of mud at the right of the main path and at the end you'll find a
CRYSTAL GEM (9/10). Then, get back on the main path and reach the end before
the timer hits zero. At the end, break the metallic shell with an Electric
Bomb and grab the last CRYSTAL GEM (10/10) inside, then pick up the EGG.

LEVEL 4 ----------
*********** e) Altus *********************************************************
----------
First, talk to Leon and go in the shop to buy the Camouflage. Now, jump on
the vine nearby and jump over the obstacles until you reach the end. Then,
transform into the Bakudan and kill the huge enemy. Then go straight and jump
on the green pad to make platforms appear. Jump on the platforms to reach the
other side and go straight. Kill the enemies here, then jump on the other
platforms to reach the other side. Use the Bakudan to defeat the big enemy
here, then go straight and jump on the green pad to make new platforms appear.
Now, turn around and backtrack a bit to see other platforms that weren't there
before. Jump on them to reach a small area with a force field. Use the double
jump to land on a small area at the right with the emitter. There's also a
metallic shell here, so throw a bomb at it to blow it up and reveal a CRYSTAL
GEM (1/10). Then, blow up the emitter to bring down the force field. Go back
in the area where the force field was and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (2/10) in the
shell behind.
Go back to the previous area where you pressed the green pad and jump on the
platforms that appeared at the right. Reach the top platform to collect a
CRSYTAL GEM (3/10). Then, jump to the next area. Use the double jump to reach
the low cliff above and climb up the wall. Defeat all the enemies in the next
area and put down a bomb near one of the emitters to blow it up. Then quickly
do the same with the two other emitters to bring down the force field.
Now that the force field is down, go on and press the green pad to make other
platforms appear at the left. Jump on these platforms to reach the next area
and defeat all the enemies here. Then, press the green pad to make platforms
appear again. Reach the other side and grab the EGG.
Back at the entrance, go straight and use the camouflage ability to sneak past
the Trapper. Jump on the vine to reach the next area. As soon as you land in
this new area, transform into the Bakudan and drop down below. Throw a bomb at
the wall on your left to blow it up, revealing an alcove behind with a CRYSTAL
GEM (4/10) in. Then, follow the path and defeat the enemies along the way,
while using your camouflage ability to sneak past the Trappers. At the end of
the path, transform into the Bakudan and throw a bomb at the wall blocking
your way to blow it up. Use the camouflage again to sneak past the Trapper and
continue straight ahead.
Defeat the enemies here with bombs and throw a bomb in the worm's mouth at the
right to blow it up and reveal a passage leading to a CRYSTAL GEM (5/10). Then
turn back and go straight. Jump on the vine to reach the next area. Here, use
the camouflage to reach the next safe spot of ground. Transform into the
Bakudan and throw a bomb at the right to hit the metallic shell in the corner
at the right. Use the camouflage to go and get the CRSYTAL GEM (6/10) after
blowing up the shell.
Go back to the safe spot and throw a bomb at the left to blow up the rock wall
blocking the way. Use the camouflage to cross to the other side now that the
wall's gone. Defeat the enemy here with the Bakudan, then throw a bomb at the
rock wall straight ahead to reveal a secret alcove behind. Jump inside and
throw a bomb at the shell to get a CRYSTAL GEM (7/10).
Go back outside and throw a bomb to the wall at the right (left if you're
coming from the alcove) to reveal a new area behind. Use the camouflage to
reach the safe spot, then throw a Bakudan bomb at the enemy on your left and
use the camouflage to reach the spot where that enemy was. Throw a bomb at the
metallic shell in the corner and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (8/10).
Then, go back to the previous spot and throw a bomb in the worm's mouth in
front of you to blow it up. Go through where the worm was to access a new
area. Go straight and jump on the cliff, then press the pad to make platforms

BOSS ----------------------
*********** f) Looger's Henchmen *********************************************
----------------------
When the fight starts, jump over the platforms at the right until you reach a
large platform. You'll need to fight Jazz. She will slide once, then stop, so
use that opportunity to hit her. Then, she'll start sliding twice in a row
before stopping, and three times at the end. Be careful and avoid her, then
attack her until she is defeated.
Then, you'll need to cross to the next large platform while the dragon shoots
ice at you, so be quick and use double jumps to jump from a platform to the
other. You'll then need to fight Rhombus. He'll jump and try to crush you,
but you can easily avoid his attacks by running away and jumping to avoid the
wave. Then, attack him after his attack. Sometimes he'll jump twice in a row
so be careful. Hit him until he is defeated.
Then, jump on the platforms at the right to reach the last large one. You'll
fight Turbine here. The dragon will also attack you while Turbine does, so
you'll need to be extra careful. Avoid the dragon's shots, then avoid
Turbine's poison breath by trying to stay behind him so very far from him.
When he stops, attack him. Repeat until he is defeated.

LEVEL 6 ------------
*********** h) Koradus *******************************************************
------------
At the start of this level, go straight and jump over the platforms until you
reach the other side. Here, you'll see spiked cocoons, so use the camouflage
ability to sneak past them. Then, go in the mud at the right still with the
camouflage ability to reach the first CRYSTAL GEM (1/10).
Then, go straight ahead and down to the area below. At the bottom, go right
and jump on the vine. In the next area, go straight and jump over the spiked
cocoons at the right of the boulder at the end to find a metallic shell. Blow
it open with an Electric Bomb to find a CRYSTAL GEM (2/10) inside.
Then, jump down in the area below at the right and cross to the other side of
the mud using the camouflage or jump on the higher area at the right and then
to the other side. Jump down below again and cross the other muddy area by
jumping over the rocks. Reach the other side and double jump to the cliff
above, then jump on the vine here. In the next area, climb up the path and
avoid the slimes. Then, at the bottom of the path, jump to the next path to
climb it up. You'll arrive in a new area. Go straight ahead and drop down on
the lower ground to find a CRYSTAL GEM (3/10).
Then, go back up and you'll notice that there are two paths you can take to
reach the next area. Go in any of the two as they lead to the same place. Once
in the next area, continue on the next path. At the end of the path you'll
find an EGG.
Back at the entrance, go straight again until you reach the spiked cocoons.
From there, use the camouflage to get past them and head left. Jump on the
vine here to reach a new area. Once there, go straight ahead and jump over
the stepy stones until you reach a cave. Enter it and go straight to find a
CRYSTAL GEM (4/10) in the middle.
Then, go to the end of that section of the cave, killing the many enemies
along the way. Then, go left to access a different section of the cave. Keep
going further into the cave until you reach another section of the cave where
the ground is green. Here, kill the Dragon Warrior, then jump on the pad
nearby and run back to the first plant near the entrance of this section by
following the liana on the ground. Quickly grab the CRYSTAL GEM (5/10) in the
plant before it closes.
Now, go back to the end of the cave and climb up to reach the outside area.
Jump on the higher ground over the mud to avoid the Trappers and then jump
down to the ground below, in the corner of this area to find a CRYSTAL GEM
(6/10). Then, climb to the top of the cliff and defeat all the enemies here.
Jump on the vine then to reach the next area.
In this area, break the metallic shell with an Electric Bomb to get a CRYSTAL
GEM (7/10). Then, jump on the vine to reach yet another area, and jump on the
vine here too to reach the last area. Once in this last area, you'll notice
that there are 2 paths you can take, but first, go to the very far right of
this area and look in the corner at the edge to find a metallic shell. Break
it open for a CRYSTAL GEM (8/10).
Then, climb up the path nearby at the left, which leads to the top of this
area where a metallic shell is. Break it open for another CRYSTAL GEM (9/10).
Jump on the vine here to go back down to the area below. This time, go left
in the small cave and climb up the path here. At the top, go straight ahead
and defeat all the enemies to make a CRYSTAL GEM (10/10) appear. Pick it up,
then grab the EGG nearby.

BOSS ---------------------
*********** i) Giant Rattlecrab **********************************************
---------------------
For this battle, you will be on the Repbaldactile. First, you will need to
shoot the Rattlecrab's claws. When he's about to attack you with one of his
claws, shoot it repetitively until you hurt him. That way you will be able to
avoid his attack. Repeat this process several times with each of his claws
until he decides to change his method of attacking.
You will now need to shoot the four yellow dots on his head until you destroy
them all. However, this time he will send missile enemies at you, so you will
need to destroy these enemies before shooting the yellow dots. Shoot down the
enemies and as soon as you have the time, try shooting the dots, or try to do
both at the same time. Once you destroy the four dots, the Rattlecrab will try
a new way to take you down.
This time, he will try to use a radar on his head to shoot you down. Start by
shooting the radar first, then shoot repetitively in his mouth. If you destroy
the radar, you will prevent him from attacking you. Repeat the process, shoot
the radar, then his mouth until Rattlecrab is destroyed. Phew.
LEVEL 7 -------------
*********** j) Medoozum ******************************************************
-------------
When you start this level, go down and hit the platform activator to make some
platforms appear. Jump on them until you reach a new area. Here, defeat all
the enemies, then hit the platform activator and use the platforms to reach
the next area. Jump on the moving platforms here to reach yet another area.
Keep jumping on the other platforms in this area to reach the next again, then
defeat the Zarpac in this area and go right to hit the platform activator.
Jump on the platforms to reach another area and defeat all the enemies here.
Hit the platform activator in this area and jump on the platforms until you
are on a spinning platform. From this platform should be two other platforms
leading two different ways. Jump on the beige platform at the right and it'll
bring you to a new area. Here, go straight and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (1/10)
behind the fake surprise cocoons.
Then, go back on the beige platform to return on the spinning platform, and
this time, jump on the purple platform and keep jumping on the next ones until
you reach the next area. Defeat all the enemies here, then hit the platform
activator and jump on the platforms until you reach the next area. There
should be a metallic shell here, but you'll get it shortly. Jump on the vine
here and when the vine splits in two ways, jump on the vine at the left to
reach an area with a shell. Break it open with an Electric Bomb to get a
CRYSTAL GEM (2/10).
Then, jump back on the vine and you'll end up in the area you were previously
where the other shell is. Break it open for another CRYSTAL GEM (3/10). Jump
back on the vine here and when the vine splits, stay on the right one to reach
a new area. Here you'll need to fight the Doozum. When he throws a big fiery
rock, hit it with your tongue in the Doozum's direction to hurt him. Avoid
all of his other attacks and repeat the process until you defeat him to get
the Doozum transformation.
From where you are currently, drop down to the area just below the one you are
in and you'll find a shell. Break it open to get a CRYSTAL GEM (4/10). Then,
transform into the Doozum and fly to the area just below the one you are in
right now to find another CRYSTAL GEM (5/10) among some Klokkies. Then, still
in your Doozum form, fly around this area until you spot some blue enemies
shooting at you nearby. Shoot them all and a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10) will appear
where they were. Pick it up.
Now, there are two challenges in this level. Fly to the red portal and go
through it to start the Ring Challenge.
*Ring Challenge*
Pass through all rings before time runs out.
Use the speed boost and don't miss any ring. At the end you will get a CRYSTAL
GEM (7/10). Then, fly to the blue portal for the Tunnel Challenge.
*Tunnel Challenge*
Race to the end of the tunnel without touching any of the walls or obstacles.
Use the Quick Turn for some of the hard passages and at the end you will get
the EGG for this level.
The three last Crystal Gems can be found around the level. Find and kill the
three huge flying beasts around the level and you will receive a CRYSTAL GEM
(8/10). Then, fly to the very far right end of the level (use the map to go
there) and you will spot other blue flying enemies among some big floating
rocks (near the blue portal). Shoot them all and a CRYSTAL GEM (9/10) will
appear. The last one is hard to locate, fly to the bottom left corner of the
level (use the map once again) near the starting area of the level and land
on a land with many Ratos, on the other side of a barrier. The CRYSTAL GEM
(10/10) is floating in the air here.

*********** k) Iridium *******************************************************
------------
At the start, take the path going left and use the camouflage to sneak by the
spiked cocoons. At the very end of this path, jump on the vine to reach a new
area. Here, go straight ahead and climb up the path to reach another area.
Once there, go left to find a CRYSTAL GEM (1/10) at the end of the path.
Go back from where you came and go straight, following the trail of Klokkies.
On the way you'll encounter your first Fruzard. Defeat him, then keep going
until you need to fight the second and third Fruzards. Continue jumping from
platform to platform until you are on one with a shell. Break it open with an
Electric Bomb, but watch out for the cactus. Inside is a CRYSTAL GEM (2/10).
Keep going and jump on the large platform with the fourth Fruzard on at the
right. Defeat him and the fifth Fruzard also. Then, go back to the previous
area and keep going on until you need to fight the sixth Fruzard. Then, climb
up the path nearby to reach the next area. Keep going further into the path
until your way is blocked by cactus. Use the camouflage to sneak past them
and go down the narrow path. Defeat the seventh Fruzard here. Then, jump down
to the area below. Jump on the sinking platforms to reach the other side and

the Fruzard and shoot down all those dragons using the sniper mode. Then,
jump down on the platform below with the Klokkies. Shoot down all the other
dragons that will appear and jump on the last platform. The path will stop
there but you'll see a trail of Klokkies leading to an unreachable portal on
the other side. Enter the sniper mode and shoot the yellow target in the air
to make platforms appear. Jump on these platforms to reach the other side
and go through the portal for a challenge.
*Balloon Challenge*
Shoot the balloon to keep it airborne! Target Time 23 seconds.
For this challenge, all you have to do is keep shooting the balloon so it
doesn't fall during 23 seconds. Just don't shoot it like mad and you will get
it. You will receive a CRYSTAL GEM (4/10) for this challenge. Then, go back
to the entrance of the level. This time, go in the left path and further in
that same path, shoot the lamp plant near the Dragon Warrior to get another
CRYSTAL GEM (5/10). Then, look in the air where the Dragon Warrior was using
the sniper mode and shoot the yellow targets to make platforms appear. Jump

This challenge can be hard. Shoot down all the dragons before they reach you
until the timer hits zero. You will receive a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10) for it. Then,
cross back to the other side where the Dragon Warrior was and jump on the vine
at the end of the path. Right after getting off the vine, don't move, simply
turn around and enter the sniper mode. Look in the air behind you (where the
vine is) and you'll see some floating balloons. Shoot them all as one of them
contains a CRYSTAL GEM (7/10). There's another Crystal Gem in a balloon in
this level and as it's near this area, we'll go get it now. Simply go
straight ahead and climb up the path to be back in the area where you fought
the Fruzards. Go where you fought the second Fruzard (near an area with 2
health units) and look in the air with the sniper mode to see floating
balloons. Shoot them as one of them contains a CRYSTAL GEM (8/10).
Now, go back to the previous area after the first vine where you shot the
first floating balloon and this time, transform into the Fruzard and enter
the sniper mode. Look in the air above the path at the left to see some
enemies throwing boulders. Shoot them to take them down. Then, you can safely
cross the path to reach the next area. Here, jump on the sinking platforms to
cross, then shoot the dragon in the air and go to the end of the path while
shooting the dragons along the way. At the end of tshe path, shoot the yellow
targets in the air at the left and platforms will appear. Use them to reach
the other side, then go on and shoot the enemies along the way, and at the
end, shoot the yellow targets here too to make platforms appear again. Jump

BOSS --------------------
*********** l) Bootcamp's Lair ***********************************************
--------------------
This boss may seem hard, but he's pretty easy to defeat once you know how. He
mainly has two attacks at the start of the fight, he'll either try to bite you
(which you can avoid by jumping on the nearest vine) or try to blow you away.
When he uses this attack, don't run away, simply stay on the platform and run
forward to avoid being blown away. Once he's done attacking, transform into
the Fruzard and shoot the boss' eyes. Repeat this process until he sinks down.
He will then come back and start breathing fire at you, but never stop to try
attacking him, keep jumping from vine to vine and eventually, your path will
be blocked. Transform into a Fruzard again and enter the sniper mode. The boss
will shoot two fireballs at you. Shoot both, then shoot his eyes. Repeat this
process until he disappears again.

------------
Follow the path at the start and enter the cave. Break open the shell at the
right with an Electric Bomb (there's a vine at the start if you need one) to
get a CRYSTAL GEM (1/10). Then, fight the enemies in that cave and defeat the
first Swoom. After this, climb up the cliff at the right and defeat the
enemies here too to fight the second Swoom. Then, slide down the slope to end
up in the next area.
Here, use the camouflage to get past the Trapper, then go in the middle of the
area and fight the enemies and the third Swoom. After the fight, you'll get a
CRYSTAL GEM (2/10). Then, use the camouflage again and follow the trail of
Klokkies to reach the other side of the area. Enter the cave here.
Jump on the stepy stones to reach the other side, then use the camouflage to
get past the Trappers and reach the next side. Fight the enemies here and the
fourth and fifth Swooms. Go straight then and use the camouflage again to get
past the Trappers. On the other side, fight more enemies here along with the
sixth Swoom. Then, look around this area to spot a CRYSTAL GEM (3/10) in the
mud. Go get it using the camouflage.
Then, use the camouflage again and follow the trail of Klokkies to reach the
next area. Here, jump on the platforms over the mud and grab the CRYSTAL GEM
(4/10) on one of them. Then keep jumping on the platforms until you reach an
area where you'll need to fight more enemies and the two last Swooms. You can
now transform into a Swoom.
Jump into the water and you'll be back in the entrance area. First thing to
do, swim around in the water until you spot a ring. Swim through it to start
a challenge. Swim through all the rings that appear without missing a single
one and you'll receive a CRYSTAL GEM (5/10).
Then, go back to the surface and from the entrance, go straight ahead and
enter the cave. This time, transform into the Swoom and jump in the water
inside the cave. Swim straight ahead and you'll come to a gate. What you need
to do in order to open that gate is to hit the three yellow switches nearby.
Once it's open, go through and swim to the next area, avoiding the enemies
and obstacles along the way. Hit the three yellow switches here too and the
gate will open.
Keep swimming straight ahead and you'll emerge in a larger area this time. Go
back to the surface and jump on the platform in the center. Defeat all the
enemies here to get a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10). Then, you'll need to find the three
yellow switches around this area to open the next gate. There are all on the
ground, so don't look underwater. The first one is on a platform with some
fake cocoons. The second one is on a platform with Ratos, and for the third
one, jump on the vine near the Ratos and you'll get to the third one.
Once you've hit them all, go back underwater and through the passage where the
gate was. You'll notice that the path splits in two here. Start by going in
the left tunnel and at the end, go back to the surface and jump on the ground.
Defeat all the enemies here to get a CRYSTAL GEM (7/10).
Then, go back to the intersection and this time, go in the path at the right.
Hit the three yellow switches in the tunnel to open the gate at the end. Go
straight ahead to end up in an outside area. Go right and break open the shell
to get a CRYSTAL GEM (8/10). Then, follow the path and defeat all the enemies.
Jump on the platforms over the mud and grab the CRYSTAL GEM (9/10) on the
pillar at the right.
Then, go to the end of the path and jump back in the water. Swim until you
emerge in a large area. You'll have to find the three switches again. The two
first switches are on small platforms in the corners of the area. For the
third switch, jump on the platform with the Klokkies and climb to the top.
Slide down the slope here and you'll find the third switch at the end. The
gate will now open so go through to the next area.
Go to the surface of the water and jump on the platform in the center. Follow
the path and you'll come to a CRYSTAL GEM (10/10) in plain view. Then, climb
up and jump on the vine. Defeat all the enemies in the next area, then climb

you. Once he's defeated, shoot the targets in the air and cross to the other
side using the platforms.
Once there, climb up the path to reach the next area. Here, go left and jump
on the platforms with the cocoons. Enter the sniper mode and look in the air
to spot a floating balloon above the path you just climbed. Shoot it to get
a CRYSTAL GEM (6/10). Then, go straight from the path you climbed and shoot
the dragon in the air. Defeat the big enemy on the other side, then cross
to the other side using the targets and platforms.
Here, climb up the path to the next area. Before continuing ahead, jump at
the left of the path after climbing it and enter the sniper mode. Look in the
air to see some balloons above the path you climbed. There are three windows
in the wall, and you can see the floating balloons through them. Shoot the
balloon hidden behind the wall in the middle window (you can barely see it,
but try to shoot it once you spot it) to get a CRYSTAL GEM (7/10).
Then, go straight and shoot the dragons and the big enemy on the other side.
Shoot the targets in the air then and jump on the platforms to reach the
other side. Defeat all the enemies here, then look at the right to see a
Crystal Gem floating in the air. Shoot the targets above to make platforms
appear and jump on them to reach it. Use your tongue to grab the CRYSTAL GEM
(8/10).
Then, go straight in the passage and jump on the pillars to cross the gap.
Jump on the vine on the other side and when the vine splits in two, jump on
the vine at the right to reach a new area. Defeat all the enemies here, then
jump on the pillars and shoot the lamp-like plant on the pillar at the left
to get a CRYSTAL GEM (9/10).
Cross to the other side and shoot the targets in the air to make platforms
appear and jump on them to reach the other side. Use the camouflage to walk
past the cactus, then at the end of the path, enter the sniper mode and shoot
the big enemy throwing rocks ahead. Then, drop down in the area below and use
the camouflage to pass between the cactus in the path. Stop in the little
alcove at the left where the Klokkies are and enter the sniper mode. Shoot
the big rock throwing enemy above the path at the right, then safely make it
to the end of the path and shoot the big enemy on the other side. Then shoot
the targets and cross.
Enter the cave on the other side and defeat all the enemies inside. Then, go
outside and break open the shell with an Electric Bomb to get the last
CRYSTAL GEM (10/10). Then go straight ahead and grab the EGG.

BOSS ------------------------
*********** o) Looger's Stronghold *******************************************
------------------------
Final boss. To beat him, you'll need to use Electric Bombs. First, he'll throw
thunderbolts at you (you can predict this attack as he will raise his hands
before using it), so run around the platform to avoid them until he stops.
Then, watch the ground and you'll notice that one of the spots will start
glowing. Run to it and stay on it to avoid Looger's attack. While you're
standing on that spot, you will gather static electricity and you'll get an
Electric Bomb when your bar is full.
Once you have an Electric Bomb, go near Looger and use that bomb on him. You
will need to repeat that process several times. He will also start to send
electric waves at you, simply jump to avoid them while standing on the glowing
spot to gather the static electricity. After a while, he will send Ratos to
attack you, and also a Zarpac. Defeat all of them. Then, you'll notice that
the four spots will be glowing. Don't go on any of them yet, wait until Looger
finishes his attack (he'll throw purple orbs on the spots). After his attack,
run to the spot without any orb and stand on it to fill your bar.
Keep attacking Looger when you have Electric Bombs and eventually, he'll send
a big enemy to attack you. The enemy will try to crush you with his head, but
stand back from it and once his attack is over, hit him as much as you can.
Repeat the process until you defeat him. Continue attacking Looger then until
his life meter reaches zero. But it's not over yet.
Looger will jump on the platform you are on and will try to hit you. Run
around the platform to avoid his attacks, then stand on one of the spots and
wait for him to attack you, but at the last second, get away and his punch
should hit the spot you were on. It should now start glowing so quickly go on
it to charge up your electricity bar. Repeat this process until you have an
Electric Bomb and attack Looger with it.
Then, Looger will return to his seat and continue to attack you with the same
attacks as previously. Attack him again with Electric Bombs and he will come
back on the platform with you. Repeat the same process as before but this
time you will need to hit him twice. Finally, he'll go down.
***
If you collected all 100 Crystal Gems, you will get the Alternate Ending.

*********** a) Story *********************************************************
----------
Our world is only one small planet in a vast universe. Our universe is one
speck within the "Multiverse". The portals that connect the planets are
unstable -- they can spawn and die out in the blink of an eye. If anyone could
stabilize and control these portals, he would wield immense power.
In a freak accident, Leon, a brilliant scientist, in the process of developing
just such a device, is sucked out of our world and into a bizarre dimension.
There, the evil Looger and his cronies torture the scientist and steal this
technology, perfecting it until it suits their own twisted purposes.
They break into our world, but before they can complete their fiendish plans,
they are discovered by Bobby "Scaler" Jenkins. They capture the boy and try to
get him to talk, but he breaks free, and escapes through a portal into their
world.
---------------
*********** b) Characters ****************************************************
---------------
Bobby "Scaler" Jenkins
-----------------------
Bobby is an energetic boy whose quick wit is matched only by his swift
reflexes. He loves skateboarding and lizards, not necessarily in that order,
and will move Heaven and Earth to save his friends.
Leon
-----
This once heroic and brilliant scientist is now merely a surly survivor -- but
he hasn't quite realized that yet. He befriends Bobby, and give the boy advice
and guidance as he explores the strange world he's blundered into.
Bootcamp
---------
"Captain Bootcamp" is Looger's right hand lackery. He's taken on the persona of
a drill sergeant in our world. He's really just a big lug, and Bobby's having
none of his bullying tactics.
Jazz
-----
She's on Looger's team, too, but in our world, she's taken on the guise of a
movie director. She is NOT one to be messed with, and Bobby has crossed the
line!
Rhombus
--------
He's nabbed a job as a CEO in our world, but he is really another Looger
compatriot. Hey, Rhombus! You're FIRED!
Turbine
--------
Turbine is Looger's "muscle" and is masquerading as a construction worker in
our world. Scaler's too quick for this bad-breathed baddie!
--------------------

open barriers.

Klokkies
---------
Collect these floating pollen particles, and Leon and his faithful Repbaldac-
tile can help you convert them into new abilities and upgrades.
Crystal Gems
-------------
There are 100 Crystal Gems in the entire world (10 per level). Besides being
worth 500 Klokkies each, collecting them all unlocks a super cheesy alternate
ending, the kind that Hollywood would have given you! Have a good chuckle.
Cocoons
--------
Most can be easily broken and many contain a collectable. Cocoons should be
approached with caution as some are traps or monsters.
Shells

These are tough to break and require an Electric Bomb Attack or a Bakudan
bomb to open. Shells usually contain a very valuable collectable.
Vitaloids
----------
They help you recover your health when you're hurt.
