angryponcho plays Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! - Part 20 of 41

We take on another speedway and tear it a new one!

Metro Speedway

Another speedway level.

This time you'll be knocking pigeons off switches, flaming signal guys, going through more arches and flaming guys with bungee cords.
 

Skelos Badlands

We have half of the orbs in the game now! Isn't this wonderful?

Anyway, your task here is to make it to the end of the level to help beat a bet made by one of the cavemen that you can't make it over to the other end of the level.

The fodder here are little red salamanders. You'll need them, because there's lava running throughout the level and it burns to the touch.

Along the way, there are catbats that fly around and spit fire at you. Hit them with your flame attack or with rocks. There are also Fire Wizards that litter the path every so often. Ram into them with the charge attack, then back away so that you won't get hit by the ring of fire that results when the head explodes.
 

Orbs

Metro Speedway

1. There is a waterfall somewhere in the stage. Behind it is a hidden room with the Mayor of Metro Speedway inside. He'll tell you about the crime problem that's been happening in the city, and he wants your help. Take his offer. (Strangely, he sounds just like Moneybags minus the British accent.)

Hunter will zap the cat burglars (that strangely look like raccoons), and it'll be your job to catch the loot they drop. Grab all the loot before it falls into the water, and you'll get an orb for a job well done.

[b]1.[/b] Across from the metal box at the beginning of the stage is a little caveman village of sorts that's isolated from the rest of the level. Talk to the caveman over here and he'll lower the bridge for you. Take down the Lava Lizards as soon as they hatch, and you'll get an orb when you touch them all. If you're too slow, one of the cavemen will get eaten and you'll have to start all over.

They hatch in a specific order, so you'll be able to get this one down pat after a few tries.

Skill Points

Metro Speedway

Under 1:15 - If you can take out all the targets in 1:15 or less, you'll get a Skill Point and an extra life.
