Sonic Lost World 100% Completion Guide (Wii U/PC)

So, you have Sonic Lost World? And you want to complete it all? Then this is the thing you’ve been looking for! Without further ado, let’s begin!

The Red Rings/how to get chaos emeralds:

Related image

Starting off on our completion journey we have a returning gameplay feature from Sonic Colors, the Red Rings. For those who don’t know, Red Rings are a type of collectable items you can obtain in this game’s main levels, there are five of these in each level (except some hidden/extra levels). Grabbing all of the Red Rings in a world nets you one of this game’s seven Chaos Emeralds. Collect all seven of the Chaos Emeralds and you unlock the form of Super Sonic an ultra-powerful version of Sonic that can’t be damaged, has enhanced speed and destroys enemies on-contact. This form needs a steady supply of rings to keep it sustained, when the rings run out the super form does as well.

This should be all you need to know about for now, so let’s go onto where these can be found.

130: Avoid the rails that aren’t green at the at of the stage.

131: Use the Hover wisp or wall-running to traverse over to the tall platform surrounded by lava.

132: When fighting Zor, ignore the curled pathway and head right instead.

133: After beating Zor, go through the outside area and wall run past the grates.

134: Use the Hover power-up and do what you did before with the grates on the next pair of them.

135: When at the cannon area, look on top of the cannons and when you find it, jump over to that part.

136-140: Keep your eyes focused on the road ahead while fighting the Final Boss, you may have to wait a while before these ones appear.

The Missions:

Now that we’re done with getting Super Sonic, we shall now move onto the Missions. Missions in this game are a set of tasks that once finished will give you a reward, usually a power-up of some kind. There are 100 of these tasks in total and each one of them will also give you an achievement in the PC/Steam version of the game.

Now, time to spin dash on over to these Missions and what they require!

Completing the Missions: (M=Mission)

M 1-13

Collecting Rings: 500,750,1000,1250,1500,1750,2000,2250,2500,3000,3500,4000,4500

Every time you grab a ring in a level progress goes towards these kinds of tasks, if you have them in your list when you grab said them. You’ll probably get most of these just by playing however if you want to intentionally farm them a good place to do so is in Sky Road’s Bonus stage, since it’s stocked to the brim with rings everywhere. Playing that Bonus stage enough times should be enough to complete all of these ring based missions after a while.

M 14-21

Finish zone with rings: 50,75,100,150,200,250,300,350

When it comes down to it, the “?” Zone of Sky Road should be the ideal place to achieve what’s needed here.

M 22-24

Jump: 30,100,250

You’re able to do this one just about anywhere in the game, make sure you finish the level so that your jumping progress doesn’t disappear.

Climb Ledges: 5

M 25

This one is completed by climbing five ledges, not much to say about this one except that you’ll probably end up doing it naturally.

M 26

Move on the ceiling: 5 seconds

In Desert Ruins Zone 1 there’s a part of the interior section that has a bug that can grab you and a wall that leads to some hangable vines. Run up the wall so that you then run across the ceiling.

M 27-29

Spin Dash: 2,5,10 seconds

Find a spherical planet and continually Spin Dash on it until you’re done.  You can do this by pressing and holding the Spin Dash button down after pressing it already.

M 30-33

Wall Jump: 1,5,10,20

Reach a narrow upwards section in one of the 2D parts and you’ll be able to Wall Jump until you are done.

M 34-36

Run on the wall: 10,20,30 meters

Once you reach a 3D wall running section, jump onto the wall and keep running until the meter requirement has been accomplished.

M 37-39

Defeat badniks with Spin Dashing: 10,20,30

Go to Desert Ruins’ first act and there’ll be plenty of enemies to destroy with a continuous Spin Dash.

M 40-42

Eliminate badniks by bouncing on them: 10,20,30

Quite the irritating mission, as the lock-on system tends to complicate bouncing by tending to kick instead of bounce, this can be resolved by facing away from your targets before attempting to bounce.

M 43-45

Lock-on to and obliterate robots with a certain amount of lock-ons in a single homing-attack: 3,4,6

Find yourself a group of badniks and this should prove to be no issue at all to do.

M 46-48

Obliterate Robots in a certain way: kicks [1,100], Multi lock-on Homing attack

These may be gotten somewhat naturally as you pass through several parts of the Lost Hex.

M 49-54

Obliterate Robots: 50,75,100,200,250,300

Smashing up bee robos can finish this one up pretty quickly or you can just earn these as you play.

M 55-57

Acquire 1-Ups: 3,6,9

1-Ups can be easily found in Sky Road’s “?” zone and just before the end of Desert Ruins 2nd stage.

M 58-60

Cyan Laser: Eliminate 20 robots, gain rings [10,50]

Windy Hill act 1 has a Cyan Laser power-up at the first checkpoint post that is usable.

M 61-66

Yellow Drill: be the drill [30 secs], complete Drill Jumps [5,10,20], eliminate 10 badniks, acquire 50 rings

Be sure to keep grabbing the Drill power-up to continue drilling through the ground.

M 67-68

Orange Rocket: 10,50 rings

Tropical Coast’s 2nd and 4th acts are the only places in the whole game that have the Orange Rocket wisp, try to shoot straight up after obtaining the rocket to make things simple.

M 69-75

Indigo Asteroid: find a bonus room, be an asteroid [30 secs], destroy parts of the surrounding area [10,20,40], defeat 20 enemies, gain 100 rings

Windy Hill’s 2nd zone should have the satisfactory conditions to pull off these requirements.

M 76-77

Crimson Eagle: Fly for 30 seconds, Gain 50 Rings

Head over to the 1st act of Desert Ruins and there should be an ample amount of Eagle Wisps for usage. Make sure you keep picking up the Eagle capsules so that you don’t run out of energy.

M 78-79

Obtain rings with Rhythm Wisp: 100,200

Head to Silent Forest Act 2, find a Rhythm Wisp capsule and rapidly tap the jump button nearby any music notes.

M 80-83

Defeat enemies with Black Bomb: 1,3,5

To do these missions I recommend you hold onto all the Black Bomb Wisps that you can, since the only way of endlessly restocking them is to play through the Nights into Dreams stage. There’s a simple way to do this one, go to Frozen Factory’s 4th stage and use a Bomb Wisp on the ice blocks, they’ll count as enemies.

M 84

Don’t harm enemies:

This one just requires you to finish a zone without killing any enemies, you can do this in any zone but for the sake of convenience it’s best to do it in the first level.

M 85-87

Earn bonuses: 3,5,8

When landing onto the goal capsule at the end of a level you’ll get extra bonus depending on the vertical distance travelled before hitting the top of the capsule. Getting bonuses can be best done at the alternate exit of Dessert Ruins Level 3.

M 88-90

Do Zone with no deaths: 1,3,5

Any of the Zones can be used for this one and best ones to use would be the early levels like, Windy Hill Zone’s stages or even the first stage of Hidden World.

M 91-93

Complete Zone without any damage: 1,3,5

Most of what I’ve said above applies here aswell (See missions 88-90). Super Sonic can make this type of task a cinch to complete.

M 94-100

No-damage Boss Fights: Zazz,Zomom,Master Zik,Zeena,Zor,Zavok,Dr. Eggman

For this you must beat each boss in the game without taking a hit, you can easily achieve these with Super Sonic and you only have to avoid being hit while going up against the boss, not in the level before fighting it.

How do Kali altars work in Spelunky?

Kali altars are altars which are covered in blood. These can be found in almost any level except for Olmec’s lair, King Yama’s lair and bonus levels that are not the Haunted castle. If an altar is destroyed the player will lose favor with Kali. If enough of this favor is lost then Kali will inflict punishments such as summoning spiders, a ball and chain or a ghost that can instantly kill you.

You can also place knocked out or dead creatures on the altar to sacrifice them to Kali. If you sacrifice enough creatures Kali can reward the player with items like a cape, jet pack, compass, spectacles, spiked shoes, climbing gloves, bomb paste, spring shoes, a bomb box and a pitchers mitt.

Shopkeepers, hawk men and scorpion flies all are worth 6 while living, hawk men and shopkeepers give you 3 when dead (scorpion flies don’t have corpses to use). Scorpions and yetis obtain you 4 points when in a living state, yetis also give 2 favor when dead (scorpions don’t leave a dead body). Devils, tiki men, cavemen, vlad, vampires and mantraps give 2 points when alive, devils, tiki men and cavemen give the player 1 point when they are dead (vampires, mantraps and vlad don’t have corpses upon death).

Super Meat Boy – What is the hardest level?

 

When it comes to how difficult a level is in super meat boy there are usually several aspects to determine how tough a level is. Some of the aspects include is how long the level is, the level having lots of obstacles, if the level has a light world or dark world counterpart or how fast paced the level is. Some of the hardest levels in the game have a focus on one or a combination of these aspects. For example The Kid from I wanna be the Guy warp zone is a hard level because of how long it goes on for and having to go back the start of the level if you decide to exit it. The Cotton Alley levels tend be difficult by filling the levels full of various obstacles like buzz saws, spikes on the walls, disappearing and reappearing blocks. Having to collect any bandages can make any level more challenging however once they are collected the difficulty can go down somewhat. Difficulty of a level can also be affected by playing as characters that are not Meat Boy.

Hard levels

7-20, 7-20 X, 6-5 Omega, 7-19X XOXO, 5-17X Millenium, 5-18X Stain, 5-20X Quietus, 7-18X They Bite, 4-16X Starless

Super Meat Boy Tips – How obtain the bandages

Super Meat Boy Tips

 

What are bandages and what do they do?

So what you may be wondering is what are bandages? Well in Super Meat Boy hidden inside the first five worlds are collectable bandages. When enough are obtained new characters are unlocked that you are able to use. Some of these characters have unique abilities such as a double jump, mid air glide or being able to destroy parts of a level. There are 20 bandages in each of the first five worlds. They are usually placed in parts of the levels that are out of the way to the point where you will probably die many times trying to reach them.

Rogue Legacy Review – A Rougelike done right

Rogue Legacy Review

Rogue Legacy Review

Story:

The story is up to interpretation for the most part except for some diary entries you can find throughout the game.

Gameplay:

In Rogue Legacy you play as a knight who enters a castle. The goal of the game is to defeat the 4 bosses to also unlock the giant door at the start of the castle. Every time you die your character is permanently dead. However their heir heads to the castle hence why the game is named what it is. Any gold you gain inside the castle gets given to the next heir when your character dies.

The castle is randomly generated each time you die however you can use a service run by the Architect who will lock the castle in place so it does not randomize it’s self on the current attempt. However your gold earnings will be decreased if you do so. Throughout the castle you may find rooms which contain fairy chests which can only be opened if you complete the rooms challenge without failing.

Runes are attachable upgrades for your character that will be applied to a specific piece of your armor. As a result of choosing a now heir they will have randomized abilities and classes such as a sorcerer.

One of things I find the most noteworthy in the gameplay is the variety of enemy types.

Music:

The soundtrack is composed by Gordon McGladdery and Judson Cowan. It has a nice amount of variety throughout the whole game. Examples of the musical variety include themes of the final boss, the maya, the dungeon and the forest.

Graphics:

The graphics are 2d pixel art which has a lot of detail put into all of it and because of this ends up fitting all of the locations quite well.

 

Score: 7.5/10

Spelunky Review – How to make randomness fair

Spelunky Review

Spelunky Review

Story:

The story is that the main character has left their home behind to search a cave filled with Mayan relics to look for treasure.

Gameplay:

Spelunky is a 2d roguelike platformer in which you explore levels in order to reach the end. The default character is a nameless adventurer with clothes that look somewhat similar to Indiana Jones. You are also able to chose from other characters after unlocking them in the levels by finding coffins. Your starting items are a whip, some bombs and some ropes. You also start out with 4 hit points that you can gain more of by rescuing damsels and then bringing them to the end of the level.

Each level has 4 parts before you can move on to the next world. In the levels you may find crates which contain items for you to use such as more bombs and rope or machetes, shotguns and jetpacks. In each level you may come across a shop from which you can use the treasure you have earn so far to buy various items. The game’s levels layout is randomly generated each time you play and if you die you go back to the start no matter where you were at.

Music:

The game’s music somehow doesn’t become repetitive and is mostly made up of Jazz tracks.

Graphics:

It is a 2d game with detailed backgrounds.

 

Score: 8/10

The game does surprisingly well at making it’s randomness feel fair by keeping some of it’s elements the same each time an example of which is the enemies you can encounter. It’s price to buy it is also reasonable for how long you are likely to play the game. For anyone who likes a good roguelike platformer that has fair difficulty and a good amount of content I would say it is a good game to buy.
