The guide is in chronological order, so you could follow it from beginning to end if you like. But, as always, I suggest you try yourself first and use this guide if you cant find what you need to find. /------------\ //==PLANET E==\\ \______________/ //======================\\ >>Desert Landing-2 Atoms<< \\======================// Go behind the waterfall to get the first ATOM. Then turn around and you will see some large rocks. Hop up them to find a railroad track. Follow it and you will see more ledges to your left. Hop up them and you'll find the last ATOM for this area. Go back to the railroad track and follow it through the tunnel to find the entrance to the next area. //------------------------\\ >>Underground Mine-2 Atoms<< \\------------------------// Fall down where the moving platform is. Look for a cart you can push. Push the cart and you'll see the ATOM behind it. Cross the gap on the moving platform and hop over the dangerous rail cars. Take the elevator up. The ATOM is hovering above the railroad track. Go a bit more forward and take a right. //----------------------\\ >>Mine Cart Ride-2 Atoms<< \\----------------------// Ride the cart and jump onto a ledge on your right. Double jump up to the track and run across to the other side. Hop across to the ledge with the ATOM. Fall back down and swim back to the starting ledge. Hop on the cart and ride it to the end of the track. Run up the next track, hopping over any carts. When your out of the tunnel, there will be an elevator to your left. Go up it. Run down the tunnel, avoiding the mine carts. Soon, the tunnel will open to an open track. The ATOM is above this track. Keep following the track through the other tunnel and take a right to find the entrance to the next area. //------------------\\ >>Miner Chase-1 Atom<< \\------------------// Do what Porky says: Chase the miners through the tunnels twice to make the pillar fall, allowing you access to the second level. Run around the ledge to find the only ATOM here. After getting the atom, go through a tunnel on the upper story and jump up on the bouncy rock thing. You will slide down a chute back into Desert Landing. It will give you a chance to save and a new doorway will open up. Go through it. //------------------------\\ >>Desert Mesa Jump-2 Atoms<< \\------------------------// Hop across the ledges, some are like teeter-totters, so watch out. There is a girl with a rocketship that will give you an extra life if you talk to her here as well. From the entrance, hop across the circle rock, then the weird skinny rock to get to a ledge. Go through the short tunnel to find a railroad track. There is the first ATOM at the end of the tracks. After talking with the girl, go to the left and you'll see the ATOM in an alcove. This is the entrance to the next level, so go in. //----------------------\\ >>Chicken Herders-1 Atom<< \\----------------------// Ignore the chickens. Grab the rocket and hold 'Z' to fly across the chasm. Be sure to stop on the ledge. Go up the rock steps and get the next rocket. Fly across again. Go up the ramp to get the rocket. Fly into the ATOM way up high. Let go of 'Z' as soon as you grab it so you fall onto the second ledge. Go back up the stone steps and get the rocket. Fly back to where you just came and go through the tunnel to the next level. //-------------------------\\ >>Bottomless Canyon-2 Atoms<< \\-------------------------// Hope your rocket flying skills are up to par. Grab the rocket and fly around the pillar and land on the ledge. Fly through the canyon walls and turn an immediate left after you come out from the walls or else you will die. Grab a rocket and fly into the ATOM above a ledge. Hop across a few small ledges to get the second ATOM. Fly across to the last large ledge to find the exit. After you slide down the slide and save. A new path opens up again. This time, your not conveniently placed right in front of it though. Follow the dirt path to find the new track entrance. //-----------------------\\ >>Hassan's Palace-2 Atoms<< \\-----------------------// This is Planet E's boss, Hassan's, Palace. Only one problem: A huge hole. Drop into it anyways and go to the far right to get the first ATOM. Watch out for the giant monster in it though. Go to the far left now and up the ramp. Here is a door, we have to come back for the second atom. //---------------------\\ >>Flood Control-2 Atoms<< \\---------------------// Run down the dirt path, avoiding the incredibly annoying humans. Tip toe across the very skinny plank. DON'T PUSH!!! Hmmm. Push it. This will drain the water out of this area and fill up Hassan's moat. Go back to the tent town and bounce up on one of the canopies to a ledge with an ATOM on it. Drop down into the now empty river. By the high end of the sunken ship, next to a TNT box are some normal boxes, break them, as one holds the ATOM. Now head back to Hassan's. //-----------------------\\ >>Hassan's Palace-2 Atoms<< \\-----------------------// Drop into the moat and swim around until you find an alcove with the ATOM in it. Watch out for the piranha though. Jump out of the water onto Hassan's side. Enter the conveniently-left-open gates. //-------------------\\ >>Palace Foyer-1 Atom<< \\-------------------// Watch out for miners with out of control floor polishers. There is a talking treasure chest right in front of you if you want to talk to it. Rugs and such are safe from the floor polishers, by the way. Run down the hall to the checkered tile. Look right to see the next hallway o' fun! Let the swinging door slam towards you and book it, you should have just enough time to make it. It helps to stay along the left wall. Hop over the little spike pit. Now its time for double fun. Hop over the spinning spike thing when the door slams towards you and run past the door. (I wonder how Hassan gets to his room?) Run under neath the spinning spike things. Now, run past the human, over the spike pit, past the fat human, and jump the spike pit, grabbing the ATOM in the air over the spikes. Ground pound the vases if you need quarks (health). Enter the doorway. //---------------------\\ >>Palace Gardens-1 Atom<< \\---------------------// Annoying snake charmer guy tells you his snakes will kill you. They shoot fire balls at you, odd huh? Run over the bridge and past the fire breathing snake. Run past the spikes and hop on a magic carpet. Grab the connecting flight and disembark on the other side. Theres a snake friend to your immediate left. Run around the fountain, careful not to fall into the river. Grab the ATOM, which is at the mouth of the Marvin statue that shoots water into the fountain base. Hop across the magic carpet/spike pit combination and heads of for the snake waiting at the other side. Grab the quarks if you need health. Turn the corner and hop over the spike pits, avoiding the snakes. Quickly run into the door, DO NOT FALL IN THE RIVER or you have to start over. //-------------------\\ >>Palace Halls-1 Atom<< \\-------------------// After continuing to wonder how Hassan gets to his room, run straight to the rug. Go straight and ground pound the teeter-totter to send the human flying into the ceiling. Grab the ATOM off the platform, and go back to the main room. Go down the other hallway now, avoiding the pit, human, and door, all right next to each other. Run past the slamming door and hop across another pit to get to the corner, almost there! Ride the magic carpet across the long spike pit. Hop off and run down the hall past the human. Run under the spinning spike thing as well. Now you have to time your jump right. Wait for the spinning spike thing to go up, then jump and run under it. Run under the next one as well. Now, for even more fun. Hop on the magic carpet. Stay on the back of it. Jump over the spinning spike things. Run down the hall and ride the Arabian elevator. Quickly run all the way across, as these are falling floor tiles. //++++++++++++++++++++++\\ >>Hassan's Battle-1 Atom<< \\++++++++++++++++++++++// Heres the boss, Hassan. Save when it prompts you and walk into Hassan's room. __________________ /---BOSS: Hassan---\ | Health [][][][][] | | Attack1: Stalking | | Attack2: Jumping | | Attack3: Spinning | | Difficulty: 1/5 | \__________________/ After receiving orders from Marvin, Hassan will stalk you with his sword. He will slash at you, cracking the tile. After a few slashes, he will jump, getting himself stuck in the ground, go and kick him. He will now spin after you. Jump and run until he gets dizzy. Kick him again. Somtimes he will slash and then get his sword stuck, so you can kick him now too. He will spin around again, getting dizzy and opening himself up for another attack. Kick him to lower his health farther. One more hit should do him in. Marvin will run off, and you can now grab Hassan's ATOM. Wow, Hassan could only manage to find one atom for Marvin? Duck Dodgers dusts off his hands and walks back to his spaceship. Congratulations, you have all the atoms for Planet E. /------------\ //==PLANET J==\\ \______________/ While leaving Planet E, Duck Dodgers' fuel runs out, and crash lands. //========================\\ >>Downtown Landing-2 Atoms<< \\========================// Yay, a snazzy new Mobster Chicago level! Well, first, lets get the 2 atoms that the city holds. Jump down from your ship and run straight down the street in front of you until you see the theater. Simply double jump up and grab the ATOM on the overhang. Now, turn around and face the building opposite the theater. Run around it to find the arcade. Jump up on that overhang as well to grab the ATOM. //************************\\ >>Video Game Arcade-1 Atom<< \\************************// This atom is a pain in the butt to get. Run straight ahead to the seizure inducing Pong lookalike. The goal here is to get 5 points first. Gently roll the stick up or down to deflect the Duck Dodgers faces back to your opponet. Get 5 points, collect your ATOM. Before you head out, double jump ground pound the Test of Strength machine to get a life preserver. //========================\\ >>Downtown Landing-2 Atoms<< \\========================// Back out onto the streets. Now run back to the theater where we picked up an atom on the overhang. This time, go inside. //**********************\\ >>Boxing Champion-1 Atom<< \\**********************// Now, we get to play Punchout 3D. Hop in the ring and grab the boxing glove. ____________________ /--Miniboss: Boxer---\ | Health [][][][][][]| | Attack1: Punching | | Difficulty: 2/5 | \____________________/ Time for a mini boss. He will follow you around and attempt to punch you out. When he drops his guard, jump and punch the champ in his face. After you punch him, you will wonder if he is Hassan, or related at least, he will do the same tip toe stalk thingie and try to punch you again. 6 head shots will put the champ down for the count, leaving you a present. What could be inside? An ATOM! //========================\\ >>Downtown Landing-2 Atoms<< \\========================// Now look for the gymnasium. Its on the street going perpendicular to the ones that hold the theater and the arcade. It has a flashing sign too. Go inside. //*********************\\ >>Basketball Gym-1 Atom<< \\*********************// Here, Porky gives you the instructions on how to play. Pound the switch to start the game. Take a round to learn the basics. Usually, you want to get around the freethrow line, double jump and hit Z. You will probably be here a while thanks to Duck Dodgers' non-existant basketball skills. 10 points will send another present to you. What could be inside this one? Another ATOM! //========================\\ >>Downtown Landing-2 Atoms<< \\========================// Ok, once again at the hub. Go straight across the street to the musuem, the first, and annoying track. //----------------------\\ >>History Museum-2 Atoms<< (1 Atom not found) \\----------------------// Ok, right away you see the guards, you cant hurt them until you steal the ray gun. As soon as you run in, slip to the left and evade the laser security grid. Ground pound the glass case to pick up ATOM number one. Run upstairs, past the guards. On the far wall is the ray gun. Pick it up and go back downstairs. Zap the guards then shoot the door a few times to make it break. The first room on your right has the key in a pot. Zap all the guards along the way. Grab the key and open the door behind the guard. The second atom is eluding me so far. //-----------------------\\ >>Research Library-1 Atom<< \\-----------------------// Here, you see gigantic bookcases and lots of little guards. Push the bookcase on your immediate far left to line up with the other bookcase to make a long line. Run along the outside wall. There is a small hole in the back wall that you can go through. Go in and beware all the guards. Push the stacks of books over to form little staircases. Pick up the key and hop up your book stairs to the highest level in this little room. Walk across the plank to find another doorway. Run across to that bookcase we moved earlier and throw the key onto the platform by the giant lock. Now, in a blue vase on your far left (facing the lock) is the ATOM. Ground pound it and collect it, then run to the giant lock. Pick up the key and walk to the lock to open the door. //-----------------------\\ >>The Lost Garden-2 Atoms<< \\-----------------------// Remember when I said this was an annoying track? Heres why. As soon as you drop down, the view switches to overhead and odd music starts playing. Those are your first hints. This is a maze with some of our favorite security guards. If they catch you, you start over. I'm sorry, but your own your own here. Unless someone sends me a nice little ASCII map, then sorry...Luckily, both are pretty hard to miss. One ATOM is in the wall part. The second ATOM is near the mob boss' pool, in the hedge area. Heres some tips. 1) Tip toe or else you WILL NOT make it. 2) Use blind corners to spot guards. 3) TIP TOE TIP TOE TIP TOE. //------------------\\ >>Art Gallery-1 Atom<< \\------------------// Phew, that behind us, heres a less-annoying area of the track, the Art Gallery. Run under the laser grid to start. Now, that blue blob in the floor is a guard. Luckily he's asleep. So tip toe SLOWLY. Turn the corner, still tip toeing. Now, theres another guard, but he awakens very easily, so just pound the switch and scurry through the door, he doesn't care enough to pursue you through the door. Once your in the next room, tip toe past the guard and into the lasered off corner, pound the switch again. Go down the new corridor. Tip toe past the guards, though one will probably awake, he's a light sleeper. Now, into the new area. There's a super duper defense laser grid here. Dodge your way though it. Enter the new room. Duck Dodgers sees a giant jewel (in the art gallery?) and can resist it. He goes for it and sets off a very odd burglar system. The floor goes bye bye, as well as the jewel. Now, jump your way around the room over the inconveniently placed bottomless pit. When you get to the door, jump across to the next platform to grab the easy-to-spot ATOM. //========================\\ >>Downtown Landing-2 Atoms<< \\========================// Now that we are done robbing the musuem, its time for the next track. Straight across from where we started the musuem, and next door to the theater is the sewers entrance. //----------------\\ >>P.U. Drop-1 Atom<< \\----------------// To your right, past a steaming machine, is a subtly located button that you shouldn't press. Press it anyways to open a pipe we will need in a minute. To the opposite side is where we need to go. When your facing that pipe that we opened a second ago, go to the left. In the corner is an elevator. Ride it up. Now, you see the atom. Tip toe across the beam to collect this area's only ATOM. Now, against all your better judgement, hop into the pipe. //-------------------------\\ >>Sewer Control Room-1 Atom<< \\-------------------------// The rest is coming soon when I have a chance to play Duck Dodgers again! ___________ _________________________________/ CHAPTER 3 \_________________________________ \___________/ Here is the Enemy Guide for Duck Dodgers.
