We finally face the green guy! Also, the final boss!
Museum
You'll take on a bunch of Ryukens and R. Ryukens at the start. Do yourself a favor and make sure you always throw one of them into any of the others to do more damage to them at the same time, as several Ryukens in a group can be deadly.
You'll have a couple of seconds to destroy some barrels and take what's inside before you go into the museum.
The pictures on the wall are of all the bosses in the game, especially the last two, who you're going to meet here.
Penta and Scramble are also Konami releases, hence why they're arcade machines here. You can destroy these machines, but be careful as they explode when you do.
Destroy the cage door to get a ring worth several thousand bonus points.
You'll meet the green guy at the end, and you'll finally fight him, too. This is Red Fredy, and if you thought he was pretty freaky to begin with, well...you're right!
Aside from the jumping and sliding kicks, he's got a spinning claw slash, a hair swipe and a dashing punch! Fight this guy much like you would Sledge, and stay on the move!
The gold armor to the left has meat that will refill your entire health if you need it badly.
When you beat Red Fredy, you'll face a boy. This boy, as much of a Frankenstein's Monster-stitch together as he is, grows in size and becomes a ferocious beast in seconds. The fireball he throws at you before his transformation is but a glimpse of what he can really do. (Yep, this is the "person you'd least expect to be the final boss" trope that Final Fight kinda threw around with Belger.)
If you didn't notice, Red Fredy hangs on to a piece of the museum as he falls in the background. Nice to see Konami thought of that.
Anyway, Geldo (or Geld, as he's named here) has a lot of attacks. He has a standing combo much like yours (albeit slow), he can shoot out a fire wave that travels across the floor and he can also toss mini-Hadoukens at you, too. Probably his weirdest attack is...spitting a loogie. Laugh if you want, but that loogie stays on the ground for a few seconds and will damage you if you touch it. Talk about being tripped up.
If Geld glows green, get away immediately. Fireballs will travel across the ground at a good distance around him. It doesn't last long, but given that Geld can rip you apart in seconds and can be quite a coin-eater unless you get his AI down to a near-science, it'd be pretty wise. Sometimes he won't do the fireballs when he glows green, especially if you're close by, but it still hurts. So watch it.
When you finally beat Geld, Sheena is saved and the city is safe! You did it!
