I WANNA BE THE GUY: THE MOVIE: THE GAME: THE PICTURE BOOK: THE SPIKY CLIMB!
To refresh everyone's memories, over our last few updates, Bowser, Wart and Wiley all had their asses soundly kicked. Especially Bowser.
With the Unit in our firm and unyielding grasp, we go onwards.
Hmm, a room with a ceiling full of spikes on some sort of mechanism. I wonder what this could possibly do?
No surprises here.
That is just mean.
Do you see how that block to the left of the big spike sticks up slightly? Stepping on it triggers the big spike. Jumping through that gap is a real pain - too high and you die, too low and you die.
But I guess we're used to that by now.
With a delicate touch and swiftness, we escape!
Hmmmm, this place looks eerily familiar.
Shoot the turrets, blah blah blah.
You may have noticed that some of the spikes fall off in order to kill you.
Climbing high, we slowly exit the Earth's atmosphere.
Spotted anything unusual?
That sniper shoots a lot of bullets.
Fortunately I know his one weakness: bullets, fired from a gun.
Some platforms on this route flip to screw you over.
Now we're in space.
I'll just summarise the dangers here.
Remember kids: turrets are not your friends.
Remember kids: BULLETS ARE FOR SHOOTING.
Just proving that, yes, these blocks do fall.
And now the reason why I called this update 'The Spiky Climb' becomes clear.
It is fairly obvious what you need to do - those platforms slowly move to the top and back down again and you have to time your jumps to safely navigate the spike maze.
Simple really.
See.
Looks like we're going inside again!
Will Arhra panic about the realisation this route leads to Dracula?
