 2a - Popping Bubbles
======================

  There are 4 different ways to pop the bubbles that you put the enemies in.

SMASHING: This is probably the easiest way to pop a bubble.  Just drop     down 
on it to pop it.

CRUSHING: This way is fairly easy.  Trap the bubble against a wall to crush it.

RUSHING: This way is kind of difficult.  Run up against the bubble until it 
pops.

CHAINING: This is a great way to pop several bubbles at once (but it's only 
available in certain levels or if you trap them close together).  If you have a 
congregation of bubbles, pop one in the middle and they'll all pop!

===========
 3 - Items
===========

TREATS
  The first items are the treats.  Treats are the little foodstuffs that come 
after you destroy an enemy, i.e., bananas, ice cream, etc.

-Treat Scores
   Grapes        40
   Shakes        60
   Candy Sticks  70
   Coffee        80
   Strawberries  90
   Peppers       100
   Lemons        200
   Shish-Kabobs  400
   Oranges       500

DOORS
  You will see these after you destroy all of the enemies in a level sometimes.  
When you get it, you will go to a different level than the one you would 
normally go on to.  After that level, you continue on your normal path.  For 
example, if I got a door in level 12, I would go to another level (different 
than 13).  After that, I would go right onto 14.  Get it?  Good.

SPECIAL BUBBLES
  These bubbles will appear from the bottom on certain levels.  There are X 
different kind of bubbles.

-LIGHTNING BUBBLES
           
  When you pop these bubbles, a bolt of lightning will shoot out in the opposite 
direction you are facing.  They will destroy any enemy in their path.

-WATER BUBBLES

  These bubbles will take you down on a quick ride until you go through the 
bottom and back out the top.  They will take out any enemies in their path.

- FIRE BUBBLES

  If these get popped, they will drop a small drop of fire.  When that drop hits 
the ground, a row of flames will ignite, killing every enemy that touches it.

================
 4 - Characters
================

YOU

_Bub_
  It's either Bub or Bob.  No matter.  Whoever you are, you are the one who is 
playing as yourself...I guess.  You must beat EVERY level and get the "Moon 
Water" for your brother.

ENEMIES (I don't know the names so these are just for reference!)

_Robots_
  These little turds walk around aimlessly.  They will occasionally jump to 
another platform, but usually just fall back down again.  They are easily 
trapped.

_Whales_
  These whale things fly around like a bouncy ball.  They can be difficult to 
capture, so use your timing as best as you can.  

_Springs_
  It's just what the name implies.  They bounce...forever.  Watch their jumps 
and don't get them mad.  Try to catch them while they're falling.

_Wizards_
  This Mage-guy shoots little Saturns left and right.  You'll have to wait for 
him to shoot and them nab him.

_Scots_
  These are the little Irish guys that shoot tennis rackets at you.  Very 
interesting.

_Flyers_
  These superman wanna-be's just fly around aimlessly.  Can be annoying.

_Fuzzys_
  These Sasquatch impersonators run around doing about nothing.  They smell bad, 
too...I think.

_Aliens_
  This guy is a triangle-ish alien thing that just goes back and forth and 
falls.  Watch it, though.  He shoots lasers downward.

BOSSES

_Grape_
  This guy is the first boss.  He is pretty easy.  Just watch where he is 
bouncing (he goes through the platforms) and hit him with bubbles.  It takes 
about 18 bubbles to kill him.

_Choco_
  This is your second boss.  Be careful, because when a bubble hits him, it 
bounces back as a fireball.  They still hurt him, though.  Just keep on him.  It 
takes XX bubbles to kill him.

==========================
 5 - Menus/Password Entry
==========================

  This game isn't much for menus.  When you start, you get 2 choices:  Start, or 
Password.  Select Start to begin the game (duh).  Choose password to enter a 
password.

PASSWORDS

  Here you get to enter a password.  You can select from the letters B, C, D, E, 
F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, X, Z, 1, 3, 4, or 5.  Press A to 
select a letter and B to go back.  Hit start when you're done.  If you entered a 
valid password, it will say "OK!"  If not, it will say "ERROR!"  Passwords are 
listed in section 7.

===========================
 6 - Complete Walkthrough!
===========================

  OK, here's the long part.  I have just listed it in order of level (with 
bosses incorporated).  Good luck and happy bubbling!

--------------------------------------------------------------------

*Level 1*

  This one's easy.  Just sit in the middle on the bottom floor and wait for the 
robots to come to you.  Get them all embubbled and then go to the top and pop 
'em all.  NOTE: There is a door in this level on the second floor in the middle.

*Level 2*

  Go up to the second floor in the middle and get the robots.  Now wait for the 
whales to come (they will). Don't forget to get the E bubble on the right side 
at the start.

*Level 3*

  Your best option on this level is to get on the bottom floor in the middle and 
wait for the robots.  Now go to the platform above you and wait for the whales.

*Level 4*

  When you start, just wait for the enemies to come to you.  After the first few 
are bubbled, go to the left side and get the X bubble.  Now go to the middle of 
the screen and go whale hunting.  Try to get the rest of the whales bubbled 
before you pop any.  Otherwise, one will get mad and go really fast.

*Level 5*

  At first, stay put.  Get the first whale and then move to the middle.  Now hit 
the water bubble and go all the way down ad get almost all if not all of the 
enemies.

*Level 6*

  First get the 2 springs next to you.  Now get the whales.  This one is tricky 
because sometimes the bubbles get in awkward places and are hard to pop.

*Level 7*

  You have to fast for this one.  See your starting point?  The enemies will get 
in there if you don't hurry.  Get all the enemies before they get in the little 
caves (they're on both sides).  It's very hard to know when to drop if they get 
in there.  Also don't forget to get the T at the start.

*Level 8*

  You need to use the lightning bubbles in this level.  There are flyers here so 
wait for them to come up from the bottom and nail 'em.  Then watch for the 
wizards (they will be falling).

*Level 9*

  This level is pretty easy.  Drop through the bottom and stay on the highest 
floor.  Every enemy will drop eventually, so just wait.  Also get the D bubble.

*Level 10*

  This one is also fairly easy.  Drop down and land on the next floor.  Just 
wait for the enemies.  They will all drop to the side of you.  

*Level 11*

  This one's kinda tricky.  Drop down the hole but keep to the right.  You will 
pass a flyer and land on a ledge above 2 wizards.  Get the wizards and then wait 
for the flyers.  Then go down a floor and get the 2 wizards in separate caves.

*Level 12*

  When you start, hop on the lightning bubble and wait in the middle for the 
first few enemies.  Now go after the last 2-3.  Just make sure you pop your 
bubbles because they are hard to chase down.

*Level 13*

  This one isn't very hard.  Just jump to the middle and wait. (But don't forget 
your E bubble).

*Level 14*

  This level is kind of annoying.  Shoot a bubble from your starting point when 
it looks safe to go into the springs cave.  Get those guys, then move up to the 
scots on the top row.

*Level 15*

  First go up and get the flyers.  Then drop down, keeping left or right, and 
you will land on a small ledge.  From here, you can get all of the scots.  Don't 
forget the N bubble.  (There is a door here).

*Level 16*

  Just get a ride on the water bubble to kill all but 1 robot on the left side.  
Go over and get him (use your timing).

*Level 17 - BOSS*

  This guy will bounce around like a normal whale.  Hit him about 9 times to 
make him mad.  Then hit him 9 or so more times to kill him.

*Level 18*

  First go chasing the flyers.  Then go up to the top floor and get the springs.  
Don't for get the E bubble.

*Level 19*

  Hop on a bubble up to the top and get the wizards.  Now get the whales. (you 
might have to chase them).

*Level 20*

  Ok, watch for flyers and go get the 3 wizards up top.  Hop in each compartment 
and get them from behind.  Now chase down the flyers.

*Level 21*

  This one's kinda tricky.  Drop down and get on the highest middle floor.  Now 
wait for the robots.  After they have been bubbled, jump over and get the 
aliens.  Now wait for the bubbles to come back up and pop 'em!

*Level 22*

  Jump over to the middle platform and wait for the enemies to come to you.  
It's pretty easy.  Just don't forget to pop your bubbles and to get the X 
bubble.

*Level 23*

  Jump over to the right hole and wait for the robots.  Then jump up and get the 
fuzzys.  Now go to the top and get the last fuzzy.

*Level 24*

  OK, this is tricky.  Get over to the middle and wait for the aliens, but when 
you put them in a bubble, pop them immediately.  Otherwise, you won't get them 
before they get mad.  Now chase the flyers and pop them as soon as you can.  
Also don't forget to pop the T bubble.

*Level 25*

  Jump straight up to the spring cave above you and get the spring.  Now hop up 
and get the scot.  Now pop a water bubble above the middle cave to get the 
springs in there.  Now get the guys on the right.

*Level 26*

  First jump up and get the whales.  Now watch for the wizard who will come 
down.  Go right and get your D bubble and then go right and get the other 2 
wizards.

*Level 27*

  Jump up and right quickly and get the first whale.  Now wait for the second 
one.  Then fall until you reach the wizards.  Get those 3 and then chase the 
last whale.

*Level 28*

  First drop down and get the first flyer.  Now wait about 3-4 seconds and drop 
in to the wizard cave.  Now get the other flyer.  Sounds easy, but this level 
kinda sucks.

*Level 29*

  Wait for the first whale, then wait some more for the robot.  Now go up and 
get the next 2 whales.  Now drop down and get the timer.  It will stop all enemy 
movement for a few seconds or until you die.  Now go and get the last whale.  
Now go opposite of where you started and get the last robot.

*Level 30*

  First jump up and right to get the first 2 wizards.  Now continue right and 
jump up to get another wizard.  Now chase the 2 whales.  Now go to the far left 
and get the last wizard.

*Level 31*

  Jump up and get the first whale.  Now go up and get the 4 scots (they're not 
that hard).  Now get the last whale.

*Level 32*

  This level is easy if you're fast.  Just jump up to the spring cave and get 
the springs.  Then wait for the robots.  That's it.  Also don't forget the N.

*Level 33*

  On this one, jump up and get the first fuzzy.  Now jump and get the scots.  
Now go back down and get the last fuzzy.

*Level 34 - BOSS*

  This guy will bounce around like Grape, but the bubbles will make him shoot a 
fireball at you.  Just fire, then jump.  It takes 9 hits to make him mad, and 
then 9 more to kill him.

*Level 35*

  At first, just wait until the E comes.  Then go up and get the whales.  Now 
head up and get the wizards.

*Level 36*

  Wait for the spring and get him.  Then go to the middle and get the flyer and 
the spring.
