PrinceWatercress plays Kid Icarus - Part 13 of 15

We're getting a lot closer to our goal of the best ending. Now to get there and keep it that way...

First | Previous | Next | End

I chose not to spend as much time in World 3-1 as I did the first time around due to the nature of the level itself, due to the combination of how the enemies show up as well as the level design itself. If you want to get points and Hearts, you'll want to get them in the first two worlds.

At this point, I'm more careful on how I spend my Hearts, as we're getting close to the end of the end of the game again. 

World 3-1

Map (by Rick Bruns)

There is a hot spring at the very beginning of the level.

The knights with the wings (Collins) will have EelEyes circling around them. Be sure to take them all out to get them out of your way and get stronger.

The brown enemies that pop out of the ground (Holers) will shoot projectiles at you, but you can take them down for hearts and strengths.

The red things with the yellow tendrils sticking out of the top will damage you if you touch them.

The little light blue guys with the wings (Pluton Flys) will fly at you when you are lined up with them. They will also steal your weapons if they hit you.

The dark blue flying enemies (Keepahs) will dive down at you, but you can shoot them down from below if they happen to be above you and you happen to be close enough.

World 3-2

The platforms at the beginning will stop and turn around when they hit a wall. Keep that in mind while fighting the Grim Reaper enemies.

Shortly after the start, there will be another training room. Shortly after that, you'll find another shop.

The blue Metroid looking things are called Komaytos. They fly around like the other flying enemies that always show up in fours. 

The orange octopi that leap around and keep moving their mouths (Octos) will keep leaping at you. They can show up with other enemies, and that can cause the game to slow down considerably.

You'll get one more chance to buy things in the middle of the level.

There is a hot spring to recover your health with near the end, and it is the last one in the game.
