===========
2) SECRETS
===========
Here are some of the secrets in the game.

---------------
Extra Game Mode
---------------
At the Title Screen, press and hold: Up, Select, and A. You can 
tell if it worked if in the title screen says, "EXTRA GAME"! In Extra 
Game Mode, there will be new, more, and tougher enemies, and bosses with 
more Vitality Bars! So if you find the Normal Mode too easy, give the 
Extra Mode a shot!

------------------
Configuration Mode
------------------
At the Title Screen, press and hold: Down, Select, and B. Then 
the Title Screen will be replaced by the Configuration Mode 
Screen. Here, you can adjust the amount of Vitality Bars and 
Lives you start out with. You can also select a Sound Test.

-------------
Dancin' Kirby
-------------
To make Kirby dance, pause the game. If you wait long enough, 
Kirby will dance!

--------------
Secret Area #1
--------------
In "Float Islands" once you reach the underground area, there is 
a section where there is a bunch of Star Blocks. Destroy these 
blocks and there will be a hidden door. Go through the hidden 
area to get a "1-Up".

--------------
Secret Area #2
--------------
In "Bubbly Clouds" once you reach the cloud maze, there is a 
little pond of water. Go left of the water, and press Up at the 
end of the small path to enter a hidden door. In the secret area, 
you can find a Lemon, a Pep Drink, a Maximum Tomato, and a 1-Up.

--------------
Secret Area #3
--------------
In "Bubbly Clouds" once you reach the section where you fly 
straight up, there is a crescent moon at the top. Enter the moon 
like a door, and you will fall down with some Items. Here, you 
can get three Maximum Tomatoes and two 1-Ups.  

===============
3) WALKTHROUGH
===============
This section contains the walkthrough for the game.

NOTE: When I do the parts on the Mid-Bosses and regular Bosses, 
there will be a Vitality Meter. Every "=" stands for one Vitality 
Bar.

***********************
Normal Game Walkthrough
***********************

----------------------
Stage 1 - Green Greens
----------------------
A very basic level! When you reach the first door, you can enter 
it for two Pep Drinks. Once you reach the end of this section, 
hop on the Star to be taken to a Mid-Boss...

Mid-Boss - Bomb Thrower:
Vitality Meter: = = = 

When this enemy dances about, he tosses Bombs at you. When he 
does, suck in the Bomb and spit it back at him. Sometimes he 
jumps clear across the screen, so watch out! Keep repeating until 
he dies.

After beating him, keep going right and enter the door. In the 
tree, you will need to fly straight to find the next door. While 
on the way up, you can find a Maximum Tomato blocked by two Star 
Blocks. Enter the door, and head down to fight the boss.

Boss - Tree:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

Very easy boss. When apples fall from the Tree, suck them in and 
spit them at the Tree's face. When it blows Air Bursts at you, 
just squat down with Down. 

-----------------------
Stage 2 - Castle Lololo
-----------------------
Enter the door, and inside you can pick up a Microphone. Using it 
will destroy on enemies on the screen. If you want some items, 
fly up and enter the door. There you can find two Pep Drinks. 
Enter the other door and go through the hallway. There's a Bomb 
that you can use to defeat the enemies. In the next area, just 
enter the door to your right. Go through this hall and get on the 
Star to fight a Mid-Boss.

Mid-Boss - Lololo:
Vitality Meter: = = =

When this guy comes out of a door, suck in the block he pushes 
and spit it back at him. You can reach a lower platform by 
pressing Down on the thin platform. 

When you win that, you will be taken to the next room. You can 
fly up and enter the door for a Pep Drink and a power-up. Then go 
to the far right and enter the door. Enter the following door to 
reach a room filled with doors. You can get a Pep Drink here if 
you need it. Fly and enter the door that's above the door with 
the mask by it. Continue on to reach the Boss.

Boss - Lololo & Lalala:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

Since there are two enemies, they both share the Vitality Meter. 
So each one has three. Just repeat the same strategy as used 
on the Mid-Boss.

-----------------------
Stage 3 - Float Islands
-----------------------
Just keep going right but be careful since there are many enemies 
flying about. On the way to the door, you can pick up a Bomb and 
a Microphone. Enter the door to reach the underground area. If 
you go straight down and destroy the line of Star Blocks, you can 
get a Pep Drink. Continue on and you access the secret area 
(Check the "Secrets" section to see how). When you reach the part 
with the vertical line of blocks, use Air Bursts to destroy. Then 
when you have enough room, go through them. Then you can go up 
for a Maximum Tomato, and go down and enter the door. Go across 
the ship and enter the door. Now hop onto the Star to reach the 
cloud area. Go right, pick up the Lemon and hop off to fight the 
Boss...

Boss - Blimp:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = = = =

This boss is pretty easy. Use the Air Bursts to damage the Blimp. 
You'll need some good flying skills since it shoots bullets all 
over the place. It takes about five Air Bursts to make him lose 
one Vitality Bar, so the battle may take a little while. 

-----------------------
Stage 4 - Bubbly Clouds
-----------------------
Go right, and when you encounter the face enemies, use Air 
Bursts to defeat them since they will self-destruct if you try to them 
in. Then enter the door at the end. Be careful in here 
since the enemies can use long-range attacks, and enter the 
next door. Now you're in the cloud maze. You can also find a 
secret area. Continue on up to find the door that leads to the 
Mid-Boss.

Mid-Boss - Eye:
Vitality Meter: = = =

This boss has a very easy pattern, so learning it will make this 
a breeze. When he drops an enemy from himself, suck it in and 
spit it at him. 

Once he's gone, go on the Star. Grab the Lemon, and destroy the 
Star Blocks to go out. There are some Items in there, so grab 
them if you need them. Enter the next door, grab the Power-Up and 
burn your way through the blocks. Now in the next area, fly up to 
the door. There is also another secret area in this room. Enter 
the door to the Boss.

Boss - Kracko:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

Just like the last fight, use the enemies he drops out against 
him. This time around, he uses a beam attack and swoops down on 
you. When he swoops down, just jump over him.  

--------------------
Stage 5 - Mt. Dedede
--------------------
Instead of being a stage, this place is just a Boss Room. When you 
enter a Boss Door, you must complete a Mini-Stage. At each exit, 
there is a spike creature guarding it. Touch the fake Kirby to 
get rid of it. Use the same strategies I mentioned earlier to 
beat them. Once all of the bosses are done for, enter King 
Dedede's picture like a door to fight him. 

FINAL BOSS - King Dedede:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = = = = = =

In order to damage King Dedede, you must suck the Stars that he 
leaves behind on some attacks. Here's what he can do. When he 
starts to charge at you, move out of the way because he'll either 
try to suck you in or tackle you. When he jumps into the air, 
stand to the side and suck in a Star that he leaves. When he 
brings out his hammer, go up to him and then move out of the way. 
Then suck in the Star and spit it at him. On the final blow, he 
will be blown out of the castle!

Now you've beaten the game! At the end, you will get the code for 
the Extra Game Mode. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Extra Game Walkthrough
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOTE: For this section of the Walkthrough, I'll just tell you 
Boss Strategies since the levels are the same like they were in 
the Normal Game!

----------------------
Stage 1 - Green Greens
----------------------
Mid-Boss - Bomb Thrower:
Vitality Meter: = = =

This time around, he throws bombs faster and dashes. When you 
suck in a bomb, be ready to jump since he usually dashes at that 
time. He'll usually dash after he throws two bombs.

Boss - Tree:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

When the Tree shoots the Air Bursts at you, they move faster and 
move around a bit more than just going straight. Instead of just 
apples falling from the tree, the spike enemies also fall! So 
jump around to avoid them.

-----------------------
Stage 2 - Castle Lololo
-----------------------
Mid-Boss - Lololo:
Vitality Meter: = = =

Besides being much quicker, this mid-boss will throw the spiked
creatures at you after he tosses the box. So, suck in the box, and 
jump up onto the next platform to dodge the enemy and get back 
down and spit it out. It seems that the mid-boss goes faster when 
he comes out of the lower doors. And when he comes out of the top 
ones, he's slower. 

Boss - Lololo & Lalala:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

Like the mid-boss, this pair goes faster. This battle will be 
much harder because your moving area is small.

-----------------------
Stage 3 - Float Islands
-----------------------
Boss - Blimp:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = = = =

This boss is pretty close to the Regular Mode one. Except that 
his shoots are more accurate, and he shoots more at you. This guy 
can be a toughie!

-----------------------
Stage 4 - Bubbly Clouds
-----------------------
Mid-Boss - Cyclops Eye:
Vitality Meter: = = =

This boss has an improved attack pattern, but it's easy to 
follow. You can dodge his attacks simply by squatting down in the 
lower-left corner. The major difference is that he uses bombs 
which you use to attack him with instead of an enemy.

Boss - Kracko:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = =

Again, his pattern is similar to his last form. Stay in the 
lower-left corner, but fly up when he charges at you. Use the 
bombs he drops against him. 

--------------------
Stage 5 - Mt. Dedede
--------------------
Last the time, you must refight all of the four bosses!

FINAL BOSS - King Dedede:
Vitality Meter: = = = = = = = = = =

The only real difference here is that he is faster. Otherwise, I 
don't really see anything different...

Now you've beaten Extra Game Mode! At the end, you'll get the 
code for Configuration Mode!
