INVASION OF THE POKEMON: POKEMON WORLD (Turn on Word Wrap now) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello again. This 6-level set has scenes from The Pokemon World that I decided to use. They are the Plain of Death, Machampion River, an Ice Cave, a Border Fort, and a new battle with Pikachu. It also includes a bonus level - can you find it? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- HINTS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Plain of Death: Hitting switches in this level will create keys near the blue door. Also, you'll need to sharpen your jumping skills to get over the jumping sequence right above the start. If there is a small space bewteen two blocks, you can simply run off one and "hook" onto the other. Machampion River: The cannons in this level will shoot more slowly, but watch out for the bouncing ball! Try to wait until it's going down the little space on the left to pass it. This is especially true when you're trying to get into the green door. The Ice Cave: You may find it frustrating to keep your footing on the ice! Keep in mind that this lack of fast accelleration and decelleration also applies to when you're in the air. You may have to adjust your jumping techniques a bit. Border Fort: The Crushers in this level pose a larger problem than the ones in previous levels. Try standing on the fourth one and then jumping to the green door. Also, the Death Switch created a Plasma Gun somewhere along the path to get to Charizard. Shoot him three times to beat him. Pikachu Palace: Be warned: Pikachu takes thirty hits this time! Instead of ball lightning and Pokeballs like in the story this game is based on, he'll have a pair of cacti, a cannon, and three bouncing balls at his disposal. Watch out for them during the battle. Bonus Level: No Floor: The name isn't completely accurate. Yes, it has a floor, but it's broken in many places, something no bonus level so far has done. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SECRET LEVEL ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Plain of Death: Once you get the Plasma Gun, shoot the blocks near the Death Switch for a clue. Keep in mind that you may need an extra key... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- BUGS/SPOILERS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Plain of Death: None. Machampion River: This is the first level ever with a land-to-water transition, and it's not entirely free of bugs. The most common one: if you enter the water on the right side, you'll often get your head stuck in the sand. You should be facing right. Push left and you should get unstuck. The Ice Cave: The lack of acceleration and decelleration applies to the air, as well. Also, the cannons may not fire, but don't count on it! Border Fort: None. Pikachu Palace: On some monitors the "day-glow" color I put on the player character won't work as well. It may be hard to see. The intent is to have you look black in the Palace itself but kinda grayish on the palace roof. Bonus Level: No Floor: None ----------------------------------------------------------------------- VERSION INFO ----------------------------------------------------------------------- What's there to know? This translates to version 2.0 of the main game. I haven't updated it and I probably won't, at least for a long time... -----------------------------------------------------------------------
