Stage 2

Area 1

Bonus Area 4

Bonus Area 5

There's a bonus area just under the start. Step on the ledge in the floor (which tends to blend in with the ground) and use the Blue Copter as soon as you start falling to get there.

The MAD agents are here and they're dressed for the cold. They're also ready to lob snowballs at a moment's notice and jump when they see you jump. The snowmen will bounce around wildly when you approach them and take four hits to get rid of.

Area 2

Bonus Area 1

Bonus Area 2

Now it's time for our first strictly vertical area. The mechanical planes will try to drop bolts down at you, and they take two hits to kill. Your Red Copter will come in handy to take care of some of the enemies here.

The snowmen here are tinted red, and they're mercifully easier to destroy (two hits versus four from the last section).

Watch the snow. Wherever it blows, that where you'll be slowly pushed, especially in the air. It changes direction every couple of seconds, so watch it closely and time your movements to reach certain ledges.

Area 3

Bonus Area 1

Aside from the blocks that fly around in circles and the clock gear platforms that move up and down, you'll also have the wheel platforms that have you running in place when you walk on them.

Using the arrow will let you pick enemies off from afar.

You've also got the robots to contend with. When you hit them, the upper half will fly off, and will seemingly fly towards you. Even when they're dismembered, even touching the upper half while it's on the ground will cause damage. Either wait for it to die on its own or attack it with a ducking attack.

Boss

Dr. Claw is severely easy here. Keep your distance and hit him with three arrows. When he loses the swinging blade, hit three more times with the arrow while staying away from the spiked projectiles he tries to hit you with.
