Stage 3

This is where the game starts getting a little harder.

You'll have to deal with a lot of tanks and turrets. You'll need to duck to shoot down the tanks and avoid their bullets, but you'll need to alternate between jumping and dodging when you barely have enough room between the bullets to begin with. 

The flames have really suspect hitboxes that extend further to the sides than you would think, just like in Stage 2. Be careful when jumping over them.

You'll want the three-way shot throughout this stage. The spires with the diamonds at the top shoot downwards in random directions, but if you have the three-way shot, you can take them down from a distance.

The boss is a missile launcher. Avoid the missiles by standing under the high ones and ducking under the low ones, and hit the turret at the top. This is dead easy if you still have the three-way shot at this point. Hold Right on the D-Pad after the boss is defeated to move on to Stage 4.

Stage 4

There will be a lot of rolling balls, scorpions, humanoid enemies and pterodactyls coming at you from the right. The balls and the pterodactyls will dive in from the right, while the humanoids and scorpions just move towards you. Keep heading right and keep shooting. There will be plenty of opportunities to get invincibility and health here compared to the last stage.

To beat the skull boss, jump over the blue skulls that it spits out and shoot it in the eye.

For some reason, if you move to the left while jumping in this boss battle, you will suddenly drop straight down.
