If you fly into them, you will die. You can shoot away at each individual piece of honeycomb to reveal an item. These items work as power ups. For more information on the power ups in the game, check the power ups section of this FAQ, the code is GB5 for quick access. Try to kill caterpillars as quickly as you can. Their shots are homing and if the screen gets crazy, they can easily sneak up on you. If they do get a shot off, just fly a circle around their homing shots and they will usually fly off in some random direction. It is very rare that this happens but dragon flies can go below the screen. If they make downward movements, they can go off the screen to the bottom and still shoot at you so be very careful if you see them go off the bottom of the screen before you can kill them. The far left side of the screen is the safest spot to be at any point in the game, but don't stay along the bottom. If you stay in the bottom left corner, you could be hit by a caterpillar before you even see it and die without a chance of survival. _________________________ Stage 1 _________________________ The stage will start out with a couple of butterflies flying toward you. After a couple of waves, you will run into a flower and catterpillar along with more butterflies. After a couple more waves of butterflies, you will have to kill some snails. After some more waves of butterflies, you will have to deal with some dragon flies. You will some ground enemies, a flower, catterpillar, and snail, while fighting some more dragon flies. There will be another honeycomb after a few waves of dragonflies. After that will be a mix of butterflies, dragon flies, snails, and flowers. You will eventually reach the boss after a few more waves of enemies. This boss will run along the ground and shoot webs at you. After you do enough damage, it will jump around a bit and then stay on the ground. When it's on the ground, just stay as low and to the far left as possible and its webs will shoot right over you. Just keep attacking him and make sure to dodge any webs it shoots while jumping. _________________________ Stage 2 _________________________ You will immediately see a new enemy in this stage, the moth. There will be a couple of moths followed immediately by a catterpillar that appears from the left side of the screen. Shortly after that catterpillar will be a snail along with plenty of more moths. After a couple of moths, the game will also throw dragon flies along with snails and more catterpillars at you. There will be some butterflies and more of everything else, make sure to watch for caterpillars from the left side of the screen. After several waves of moths, you will see some flowers along with a couple more butterflies. After several more waves of just about everything, you will reach the boss. This giant caterpillar is a lot like the regular caterpillars you see in the game. It will shoot random homing shots at you that you have to avoid but that's about it. Just keep shooting it as much as you can and avoid its attacks. _________________________ Stage 3 _________________________ This stage will start with waves of a couple of butterflies mixed with a couple of moths. There will also be a few snails on the bottom after several waves. You will eventually run into a new enemy, the grasshopper, mixed with the other enemies. After a lot of waves, you will finally run into some dragon flies. Watch for a caterpillar that will appear from the left side of the screen that you cannot shoot because it is below the fence. After a couple more waves of moths, butterflies, and dragon flies, you will reach the boss. This boss will move side to side on the bottom of the screen. It will shoot a shot at you and then shoot lightning bolts in all directions. That's all it will do so just avoid its attacks while you shoot it as much as you can. _________________________ Stage 4 _________________________ This stage will start with a lot of grasshoppers. After a couple of waves of just several grasshoppers, they will also throw some moths at you together with grasshoppers. Afte a few waves of that combo, you will see some butterflies along with flowers and snails. After a few more waves is a single wave of dragon flies. After the dragon flies will be the grasshopper and moth combo again. A lone caterpillar will appear and then they will start throwing every type of enemy at you. Watch for a caterpillar to appear from the bottom left of the screen after several waves of enemies. The boss will like to float either left or right or diagonally. Its attacks only go directly to the left so they will be fairly easy to avoid. _________________________ Stage 5 _________________________ This stage will start with a lot of mosquitos and a couple of flowers. Watch for a caterpillar while you fight some more waves of mosquitos. You will see a snail and then some butterflies will appear. At this point you will have to fight some dragon flies and grasshoppers. They will also throw some moths at you while you fight the other enemies you saw so far this stage. After some more waves of random enemies, you will reach the boss. The parrot will fly around randomly and only attack to the left. Attack it when it's on the right half of the screen to be safe until it dies. _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 3. - Bosses GB3 _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ SPIDER This is the boss of the first stage. It will come out and walk along the bottom of the screen. It will walk side to side and shoot webs in your general direction. After you do enough damage to it, it will jump around a bit and then stay back on the ground. If you stay as low to the ground as possible, you will actually be safe from the webs it shoots and can just shoot it as much as you want without moving. Just make sure to be careful if it shoots while jumping because those shots can and will hit you. GIANT CATTERPILLAR This is the boss of the second stage. It will walk around left and right as it shoots random homing shots at you. It is a lot like the regular caterpillars you will see in the game but will walk around back and forth on the right half of the screen and is much larger. Simply stay to the far left and shoot at it as much as you can while avoiding its attacks for an easy boss fight. GIANT SNAIL This is the boss of the third stage. It will walk around side to side on the right half of the screen. It will shoot one shot aimed towards you and then shoot out a half circle of lightning bolts in all directions. This boss is mainly difficult because you can't go below that fence but you shouldn't have too much of a problem. BAT This is the boss of the forth stage. It will move either to the left and then to the right or diagonally up and down as it moves to the left and then to the right. Its attacks only go directly to the left so it should be easy to avoid. Attack it when you get a chance and fly away whenever it gets too close. PARROT This is the boss of the fifth stage. It will move around randomyl and only shoots five fireballs to the left. One will go directly left while the others will go at a slight angle. Just avoid its shots and only attack it when it's on the right half of the screen. _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 4. - Enemies GB4 _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ BUTTERFLY These will not be too much of a problem, they will simply float around in random directions as they slowly approach you. They die fairly quickly and don't shoot anything. FLOWER These will sit on the ground and will never move. They will randomly shoot projectiles straight up from their position. They shoot fairly rapidly so it might be a challenge to fly through the shots at times. Just kill them when you can since they never move. CATTERPILLAR These will walk to the left/right along the ground. You should focus on killing them immediately because they will fire homing shots at you. If the screen is hectic, they can easily kill you. Shoot the catterpillars as quickly as you can. If you do see a shot coming at you, fly a circle around the shot and the shot will usually go off in some random direction. SNAIL These will walk to the right along the ground. They are surprisingly fast for what you would expect from a snail. They will shoot a quick lightning bolt in a forty five degree angle to the left and upwards. DRAGON FLY These will move either rapidly or slowly. They like to make very quick and random movements so be careful when you are near them. They will also shoot shots in your general direction but they are not homing so they will be easy to avoid. MOTH These will fly in the same motion as the dragon flies. The only real difference is that their shots won't be aimed at you, they will just go straight to the left. GRASSHPOPPER These will simply jump at different heights as they move from the right side of the screen to the left side. They will jump at random heights and distances. They will not run along the ground at all, their only movements comes from jumping. MOSQUITO These will fly around randomly and shoot shots directly to the left. They like to fly in packs and are very close together. _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 5. - Power Ups GB5 _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ You will notice that randomly throughout the stages that there will be honeycombs floating in the sky. If you fly into them, you will die. You can shoot them and when you destroy all of the honeycombs, you will notice that they will reveal a power up. This section will describe all of the power ups that you will see in the game. 1-Up These are obvious an extra life. They don't come very often so make sure to grab them when you see them. P The P will split your shots into two. There are actually two stages to this power up, the first will split it into two and the second will split it into four. The only problem with splitting it into four is that it doesn't split until it goes completely across the screen so you will have to be to the far left and it won't split until it reaches the far right. S The S stands for Speed, it makes your shots slightly faster. There is only one speed upgrade and it's barely even noticeable but it does come in handy. _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ 6. - Disclaimer GB6 _______________________________________________________________________________ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ This FAQ/Walkthrough is copyrighted © 2010 to Frank Grochowski.
