- Levels
- Before the level selection screen loads, you are given a choice of which realms to play in.
- There are 3 realms available, but only one is playable at the start of the game.
- Finish all the levels in one realm to unlock the next.
- Levels are unlocked in sequence:
- Only the first level is playable at the start of the game.
- Finish one level to unlock the next.
- The first few levels act as a tutorial.
- When most new enemies are introduced to the game they have a tutorial explaining how they fire, if they can be defeated, how to defeat them, or how to use them to achieve various goals in the game like jumping higher.
- You play through 3 different realms: dungeon, Halloween, & space.
- Each realm has 10 levels.
- There are 30 levels in total.
- Basic rules
- Collect all the coins to open the door.
- Reach the door to clear the level.
- Your shield does different things as you play the game:
- When falling, your shield acts as a parachute that slows down your descent.
- When on the ground, the shield provides protection from shots.
- Enemies
- Do not make contact with enemies or their shots.
- Doing so and you die and must start the level all over again.
- You can stop some enemies but can only dodge others.
- Some enemies can shoot you.
- Avoid enemy shots by jumping or using your shield.
- You cannot stomp enemies that shoot.
- To attack flying enemies, stomp on them.
- Jump before you touch them.
- Land on top of them to stomp.
- Make sure you’re above your enemies before you try to stomp, otherwise they’ll attack you.
- They will try to attack by honing in on your position. Move fast to avoid them.
- Use the bounce pads to your advantage when dealing with these enemies.
- Dying
- If you get hit by a laser, an electric barrier, or another enemy you die.
- You die when hit once, but this game offers unlimited continues, restarting you on the level you died on.
- Jumping
- This game does not have a double jump feature, but instead has a glide feature which allows you to slowly descend while floating across the screen.
- Some levels have bubbles you can float on and propel you higher.
- Some levels have movable platforms which can carry you horizontally across the level. In many cases you need to jump while on these platforms to avoid shots from enemies on either side of the screen.
- The small red enemies near the end of the game reappear after you jump on them, but they also act like trampolines, allowing you to bounce off of them onto a higher vertical location provided you time hitting them near the apex of their movement.
- Strategy
- Pace
- On levels with respawning enemies it helps to play with haste as the longer you play the level the greater the likelihood you will eventually run into an enemy.
- On levels where there are no respawning enemies it helps to break the level into smaller chunks and pause at safe locations in between each segment of the level.
- Sometimes when you defeat enemies they respawn after you defeat them. In some such cases you may need to move other platforms so that when they respawn they appear in another location, like catching on a higher platform you moved into position.
- Weaknesses
- Each enemy you face has weaknesses which you can discover as you come across the level.
- Sometimes it is easiest to observe their weaknesses just by observing them while stationary, whereas in other cases tracking how they respond to your movements yields clues.
- Look at the full movement path of an enemy to see if they cross the full width of the platform they are on or the full width of the screen.
- Some enemies offer a visual cue before they fire like bloating outward or blinking.
- Coin order
- If a level has a respawning flying enemy sometimes it makes sense to collect the hardest to reach coin first, before the enemy is in close proximity.
- If a set of coins are only reachable by jumping off a platform sometimes it makes sense to do a glide jump and collect a number of them at once, focusing on the highest coin first.
- Target Audience
- The game is suited for players who like simple platforming & flying games.
- The game has no adult themed content.
