Now it's time to play through another game...and this one takes more time than I thought it would. But it gets done in one video! Here's Dynablade!
Dynablade
Dyna Blade is destroying all the crops. She must be stopped. Master the different abilities and defeat her.
The opening cutscene shows Kirby and the world at peace until one of Dynablade's feathers slashing a mountain in the background.
If you play the tutorial for this game, you'll learn how to copy enemy abilities. To do that, just inhale an enemy, then press Down or A to swallow them. The enemies that give abilities will be flashing before you inhale them. From there, you can press A and turn that ability into a helper, and you can throw your abilities to your helper to heal them and change their ability. The helper can also be controlled with the second controller, making the game two-player simultaneous in the process.
You'll also learn how to dash back and forth by double tapping Left or Right.
The game has a map, and you use the Control Pad and the A button to go to and choose your stage.
Stage 1
Go down to the door (and get Cutter if you need to). From here, you'll be heading to the right and taking out enemies as you go. For the third section, you'll be hitting bomb tiles to get rid of some walls as you make your way up. Near the end of the third section, you can find a Maxim Tomato and the sword ability.
For the fourth section, there are quite a few places you can go, but you'll eventually have to go to the right and drop down to where you face Chef Kawasaki. Just keep your distance, spit the plates he throws you back at him, and don't get caught in his pan. Swallowing him gives you Cook, which is a one-time ability that turns all on-screen enemies into food. After you beat Chef Kawasaki, you'll be able to beat the level and get the cannon mini-game that you'll play after every stage.
For the cannon mini-game, you'll fall into a cannon. The further you fill the gauge up when you press one of the face buttons, the further you'll get. Go far enough and you'll get extra lives.
Stage 2
Here, you'll be entering a castle. Once you go in, there are a few places you can go to. There is a door soon after you enter the castle that allows you to fight some Meta Knight flunkies. Further to the right is a room on the outside where you can get the Ninja ability as well as an extra life.
When you go up from the ground floor, you'll be able to get the Mirror ability. Use it on the bomb tile to open a door that leads to a switch. Touch the switch to open up a bonus area where you can get some abilities for free.
You'll eventually enter an auto-scrolling section where you'll have to avoid falling coconuts and break blocks in order to get to the other side. Once you reach the warp star at the end, you'll be able to go outside.
Once you're outside, you'll be able to get the Wheel ability. With this ability, you can speed through this section with the greatest of ease and run through enemies with ease. You'll soon have to face Bonkers and send his stars and exploding nuts at him. Be sure to swallow Bonkers afterwards, because you can hit the post outside of the castle to destroy the castle and get three extra lives and an alternate exit.
Mini-boss
When you beat the second stage, you'll get an "E" icon that shows up. It is a fighter mini-boss. Just keep your distance, avoid the fists and inhale stars and send them back at her when necessary. When you beat here, you can take the Fighter ability from her. If you lose, or if you go to another stage without facing her, she never shows up again. This is the only mini-boss in this game, and I'm surprised Dynablade doesn't do this again.
Ability Room 1
Here, you'll get some, but not all, of the abilities in the game here. There is another ability room in Dynablade, and you can get the rest of them there when you unlock it. Be sure to test abilities on enemies.
Stage 3
Here, you'll be in a cave.
The cave near the entrance to the third section leads to a Maxim Tomato and an extra life.
The third section has a wind current that pushes you to the right. It gives you bigger jumps as you go through the section, but it's not that much of a hindrance.
The fourth section is a lava cave. Be careful going down, and be especially careful at the bottom so you don't burn yourself on the lava tiles.
The fifth section is an ice cave. The Chilly enemies will shoot icicles at you, and can give you the Ice ability. There are some floors with tracks, and the little gray platforms on them will throw you forward. Some may throw you into traps, especially in later games, so be careful.
You'll face a mini-boss here: Buggzy. Keep your distance and avoid his dash attack, and spit the bugs he creates back at him to deal damage. If you swallow him, you'll get the suplex ability, which lets you perform some slams. You'll then clear the level. By pressing Y, you can grab enemies. You can punch them with Y, or press one of four directions for various slams. Double tapping Y does a multi-kick on enemies.
Stage 4
Here, you're going up a mountain. There will be Burnin' Leos that give you fire at the beginning and throughout the level. There is an alternate lower path in the first section that takes you to a room full of airborne cannons. Some of the airborne cannons spin, and you'll have to press B to shoot yourself out when the arrow is pointed in the right direction.
You can use the dashing fireball attack to get past the Gordos in the third section for three 1-Ups.
In the fourth section, you'll be going up. The bird enemies here give you the Wing ability, and it is possible to go back to behind the beginning and flood the bottom of the section while becoming temporarily invincible.
In the fifth section, you can light the fuse with Fire and get into the cannon before the fire reaches the cannon. This allows you to get two Maxim Tomatoes, some food and a 1-Up.
If you go left at the beginning of the sixth section, you'll find the switch for the other ability room. Go hit it! And if you need it, the Copy ability is there, too. Just press Y, and if you find an enemy with an ability, you'll replace Copy with that. You can also create T.A.C., a ninja cat with a bag who can grab an enemy and copy their ability.
If you hit the bomb block at the beginning of the sixth section, you'll turn some tiles into lava tiles and make it harder for some enemies to show up. Of course, it becomes harder for you to get around, too, so be careful.
If you can swallow the two Parasols at the beginning of the seventh sections, you get Mix. This is like Roulette in Kirby's Adventure, but it's completely random. You can also get nothing, the "Ouch!" status (which causes) damage or "I'm hit" (which kills you). Thankfully, this section is another short vertical section.
You'll then face a gauntlet of bosses in the next section. You'll face Chilly from Spring Breeze, Bonkers, and two Poppy Bros. Sr. The last one is just like the Spring Breeze battle, but you'll face two at one time. Just watch what you're doing, and keep an eye on them. If they're both on the same side of the screen, that makes things easier.
Ability Room 2
The abilities that were not in the first ability room will be here. One-time-only abilities like Crash and Mike cannot be gotten in these rooms at all.
Final Stage
Here, you'll go up the mountain and face Dynablade. You can get the Cutter, Beam, Fire or Sword abilities (or not), then you'll face Dynablade.
Stay away from Dynablade, and when she lands, inhale one of the stars she creates and spit it back at her head. When she jumps back and then dives as you, duck. Watch out for her extending head and her air pellets. Thankfully, the air pellets can be used against her as well.
When she goes into the air, she will try to land on you once, then dive at you from the background. Stay on the move and avoid her both times.
Eventually, you'll beat her and you'll find out that she was just want to protect and feed her kids. Kirby takes the kids to Whispy Woods to feed the birds. As Kirby teaches them to fly, Dynablade shows up and takes the kids back, and is now a friend of Kirby's. The game ends...almost. This game segues into Revenge of Meta Knight...
