This game is from the mid-1990s...so why are the platforms here like the ones in the BBC Micro games from the 1980s? The platforms are moving. I should be moving with them. This was doable at this point, programmers.
Level 2
After reaching the top of the beanstalk, Bart will see a giant castle through the clouds.
Sadly, you'll have to move along with the platforms, as the platforms will not move you. This is a 1994 Game Boy game, not a 1984 BBC Micro game, come on.
Watch out for the lightning that strikes form the top of the level. Also, watch out for the missiles that move back and forth. You can't duck, so the only way to avoid them is to move out of the way.
The boss is a cloud that looks like Mr. Burns. He'll drop down, move to one side of the screen, move to the other and then come straight up and strike downwards with a lightning bolt. Sometimes he'll switch it up and move in a complete square after he moves back to the other side. There is a pattern to this, thankfully.
Every so often, the Mr. Burns cloud will stay at the top of the screen and strike you with lightning bolts four times as he moves from one upper corner to the other. He stands still when it strikes, and the only place he won't do it is dead center. After that second thunder bolt, be ready to run under him.
Once you get his movement and attack patterns down, it won't be long before you can slingshot your way to victory against the Mr. Burns cloud.
