DarkChaosRenamon plays Bucky O'Hare (Arcade) - Part 5 of 14


We get on an asteroid and free a mouse with nature powers. Only in Bucky O'Hare, guys.

Stage 4

Asteroid Belt


Willy stops the Climate Converter, while Jenny gets a distress signal from the Asteroid Belt.

If it isn't apparent to you already, the voice acting in this game is really, really good. I'm surprised this game didn't show up on Super Nintendo or Sega Genesis/Mega Drive.

Anyway, you'll be jumping from one asteroid to the other as the screen autoscrolls to the right. Segments of some of these asteroids will break apart as you stand on them, and if you're on them as they slowly fall (or if you're teetering on the edge of an asteroid), quickly mash the jump button to get off of it with your jetpack!

The rock creatures near the captured prisoner take a good amount of abuse before the crumble and flash out of existence. Use your stronger attack on them, especially when they're close to each other. These guys will roll around and cover a good amount of ground in seconds, so stay on the move!

When you beat all the rock men, you'll rescue the mouse that was behind the energy barrier. He'll help you out by growing plants and trees on the asteroid belt, and this foliage will help you get from one asteroid to another without having to jump everywhere. Use your stronger attack against the robots that look like mines as well as the toad ship. The mouse will show back up and bring segments of an asteroid up for use as a bridge when you reach what seems like a dead end and an unjumpable pit.

When you reach the ship at the other end of this screen, you'll fight a Toad jet. Your main target is the center of the jet. Stand between the cockpit and the jet turbines at the side when it takes off and tries to hit you, and jump over the laser it fires when it returns.

The two laser cannons next to the one in the center will move apart from each other and get back to their original positions as they fire. You'll have to stay on the move here. Using Deadeye Duck's stronger attack if you can move to the side and avoid these two lasers altogether is ideal, as you can sneak in some extra damage. Thankfully, you can also destroy the laser cannons to put them out of commission.
