PrinceWatercress plays Darkwing Duck - Part 3 of 7


Time to take care of the last of the initial levels...then find out more chaos is happening in the city!

Remember that sign in the Wolfduck stage that you can only reach with the Arrow gas? If you hang off it and shoot to the right, you'll find a bonus area. In this bonus area, you'll have to block the capsules with your cape to open them, then move Darkwing Duck so that Launchpad and Gosalyn move with him so that the power-ups fall onto them and into their net. It's not easy, as you have to jump from one hook to another and have to make sure Launchpad and Gosalyn are facing the power-up to ensure it falls into the net.

Oh, and I also show off how to get those two one-ups above that platform. Turns out, you have to hit the wall with the Arrow Gas on the apex of your jump, or else the arrow won't stick.

Sewers - Stop Liquidator!


The eggs come down on parachutes. When they land on solid ground, they sprout legs and come straight at you. You're better off just jumping over them, as they're very quick.

If you have the Arrow Gas, you'll be able to get your hands on three extra lives at the start. Watch out for the guys with the hammers, as the debris that drops down after they pull their hammers away can damage you. There are also alligator guys that come at you, but the Arrow Gas wipes them right out. 

There is a shortcut to the right when you start going down, and if you take it, you can use the green platforms to get an extra life. The green platforms can be used one of two ways. You can either stand on them or hang onto them from underneath. Both will come into play as you'll be dodging spikes while you take a ride on them throughout this level.

In the next screen, the screen will go dark. There are switches you can hang onto to turn on the lights, but they go back off when you let go. The eyes you see will be blackbirds that fly up and come at you.

The kangaroos only throw bombs at you if you shoot at them. Otherwise, they'll just sit there.

The bonus round is above the second kangaroo. Just shoot up into the air and you'll find it.

Liquidator


Liquidator hangs out on the surface of the water, because he is the surface of the water. Avoid him as he sinks down and moves across the screen. When he resurfaces, he'll blow a horn to call out some fish-shaped water droplets that rise up before coming down on you. Thankfully, they can be shot down easily with the regular gun. Shoot at Liquidator while he's blowing the horn, and get as many shots in before he sinks into the water again. It's not really that hard.

Once you beat the first three stage, three more will open up.
