I've been sitting on this one for a good, long while, but now that I've gotten the extra video for it done that I wanted to get done, it's finally here!
Next | End
Looks like Sylvester has kidnapped Speedy's girlfriend (I guess). It's time to take down Sylvester and get her back.
The Desert
The Sand Dunes
In the upper-left corner, you'll see your health as well as the number of hats you have. Hats are used as weapons, and the hearts act as health. You'll lose half a heart when you get hit, and collecting hearts will refill your health. Cakes and cheese will refill half a heart, while a heart will refill one whole heart.
Left and Right let you move left and right, Down ducks, Button 1 throws hats (assuming you have any) and Button 2 jumps.
The spiders will run at you, and the scorpions will strikes at you with their tails. Throw your hats or jump on them from above to take them out.
Along the way, there are holes. Go down them by pressing Down while on top of one. This lets you enter underground chambers where you can beat enemies up as well as get some pick-ups, including hearts for health. The trampolines can get you to higher places, but some of them can get you back above ground.
By going into the underground tunnels, you'll eventually find a key. This will take you to a mouse that has been taken hostage. Hold Right immediately to get to the other end of the room, avoid the bats and free the mouse. By freeing the mouse, you'll reveal the exit, and you'll be able to head to the next stage.
Once you've freed the mouse, get back above ground and head all the way to the right to find the exit.
The Rocky Mountains
You'll have plenty of hazards to deal with here: falling rocks, giant flowers that turn into monsters that you can't destroy when you get too close, and tentacles that come out of the holes to grab at you. Be careful where you're going as you're jumping over gaps in bridges and making your way to the right so you don't take damage. The key will be in front of a bigger hole in the cliffs; grab it and rescue the mouse so you can get to the exit at the end.
The Dry Lands
Be ready to move as soon as you enter this stage, as there will be a buzzard flying around at the top of the stage swooping down at you every chance that it gets. There are holes in the ground, and you'll need to look through every single one of them for the key so you can rescue the mouse and unlock the exit at the far right side of the stage. Make sure you jump on the snakes guarding the holes to defeat them so you can go underground and look for the key. As you're underground, watch out for the enemies that will both figuratively and literally drop in on you.
The first two holes have healing items if you need them, while the fourth hole has the key. The third hole has the exit, which only pops up if you rescue the mouth.
Boss
The boss is Sylvester being carried around by a vulture. (In the Game Gear version, he's wearing a jetpack, and the top of his head looks weird as a result.) Wait for him to drop a stick of dynamite, then pick it up with Down on the D-Pad and throw it upwards with button 2. The sticks of dynamite blow up after a couple of seconds, but it will take a lot of trial and error to throw it upwards at the right time so it blows up directly on Sylvester.
If you take too long to grab a stick of dynamite, wait for Sylvester to drop another one before going back on the attack.
Once you manage to hit Sylvester enough times, Sylvester flies away, and it's on to the second level.
