This one covers the SMS game known as Desert Speedtrap. Desert Speedtrap is a rather decent platformer game based off of the famed ACME cartoons (for lack of better terminology) of years before. More specifically, this one focuses on the antics of Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote. I guess you can guess which you'll play as? :P This game was apparently made by Sega in 1993 for their Master System. In the twenty years hence, not a single complete FAQ has be written for it, until now. I, along with other members of the GameFAQs FAQ Contributor boards, have taken it upon themselves to write at least one guide for every Sega Master System game out there. Fairly recently, in fact, we hit 20 games remaining. ^_^ And, so, that's more or less how I came upon this came. Thanks for listening to my ramblin'; I hope you enjoy! =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Two: Version History **ACME_2** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= v0.10 - One level complete. 11:44 PM 1/31/2013 v0.40 - Five levels complete. 1:54 AM 2/2/2013 v0.60 - Seven levels complete. 1:56 AM 2/3/2013 Final - All twelve levels complete. 11:42 PM 2/3/2013 =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= Section Three: Legalities **ACME_3** =~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~=~= This FAQ may not be reproduced under any circumstances except for personal, private use.

Choose one quickly, as the game will soon advance to the demo, using whatever langauge you're hovering over. (The English language is default). Language shouldn't affect anything except level names and other text, which is rare - it won't interfere with the gameplay. - English : English - Français: French - Deutsch : Dutch - Italiano: Italian - Español : Spanish From the main menu, I would suggest also checking out the "Options" menu. From there, you can mess with a number of settings... - Game Mode : The difficulty of the game. Can be Easy, Normal, or Hard. - Music : Use background music from the game? - Sound FX : Use the sound effects in the game? - Play Tune : Sound test-like function for background music. 18 tunes total. - Play Sound: Sound test-like function for sound effects. 35 sounds total. =========================== Level 01: Cliffs and Ledges =========================== Begin by going to the right for a bit. As you do, beware the water dripping from the stalactite just left of the cactus, for it'll damage you. Which is odd as you can enter the pool of water further right rather safely. =/ Continue on and up the hill, collecting some stars on the way. In case you don't know, each one will increase your timer by one second. While that doesn't seem like much, in this level, for example, there are around 250 stars, or about four minutes of extra time! Continue rightward to the wall. Nearby should be a dish labeled "SEED". This will heal you and probably add to your score when you press the 2 Button when near it. The health icons are in the top-left, with a total of four. Go left and jump onto the ledge, but be careful, because the plant there has teeth and will hurt you. Jump across the gap to the left and continue onward to the larger gap. There, you'll see a bird flying by. Feel free to jump on it and kill it. Also jump across the gap, getting as many of the stars as possible. On the other side, go left and ascend to the top ledge, then head right. Eat some seed here and you'll notice this dish's sign flips over to show a Roadrunner (that's you!) head. That means this is a checkpoint and, if you die, rather than return to the start of the level, you'll come back here! Go right for a bit. You'll find a hungry plant and another bird just past the small rise. Don't worry about the bird, just dodge it - it's a bit more evasive than the previous one. Continue right and, past the water, you'll find another seed dish. Eat from it and continue. Ignore the next bird and, when you see the arrow pointing down, drop straight down from there rather than jump. Just below you should be another thing of seed. Since we'll be coming back in this direction shortly, feel free to save it if you're already fully healed, but also note that it's another one of those checkpoints. Go right for a bit and, past the long pool of water, you'll find an enemy crawling along the ground. Bounce on him if you want, then eat some seed here if you want. When you stand under the metal structure here, you should be teleported to another area, although you'll come back after a short while. This area is absolutely full of stars and nothing else, so go on. Eat some stars - it isn't like they're made of hot, flaming gas and plasma. :P Once you come back, head left to the ledges you were at previous. Eat seed if you didn't do so earlier, then ascend to the top ledge and head right. Go on the next ledge and head right. Jump across the gap to find another ledge above you. Time your jump so that you get on the ledge without being hit by the enemy up there, then jump on him to smash 'im. Grab the six stars up here, eat more seed, and continue right. Across the next gap (assuming you didn't cross it), you'll see three plants and a sign pointing up. Jump onto the ledge above and drop down from there, preferably along the path of stars. Eat the seed to the left for health and a checkpoint, then proceed right. When you see the next ledge, get on it - just beware of the dripping stalactite. Head to the seed dish nearby and eat from it to cause a bit of an earthquake. Hm... Anyways, ascend to the top ledge here and jump right, across the gap. Use the springboards to get the stars here, then drop off of the left side for some more, although you'll need to backtrack if you do the latter. Either way, (back) at the springboards, jump right to the next ledge. You'll see another stream of stars nearby. Again, getting them means more backtracking; get them if you want. Ascend now to the ledge above and defeat the enemy there and grab the stars. Now you may as well jump off the right side for those stars. Proceed to the far right and defeat the enemy there, then eat some more seed. Go left and onto the next ledge, where you'll find a teleporter. Peruse it and you'll reach another star-filled area - plunder it before you get teleported back! Once you return, continue to the right and drop off the cliff along the path of stars. Eat the nearby seed for health and a checkpoint. Proceed to the right. Nearby, you will see some ledges to climb. I will note that, much further right, there is a dish of seed in case you need to heal. It is past some hungry plants, though. Oh, yeah, and Wile E. Coyote is riding a firework to try and hit you. How flashy. Ascend the aforementioned ledges, On the left to the left of the top ledge, you will be able to use some more springboards to get a number of stars. Get them and return to the ledge. Go up and right to the seed dish. Use it if you want and continue rightward. Jump over the plants and gaps and eat more seed if you want. Just to the right of the final seed dish is a gap. Go down it and you'll find the exit. Once you reach it, the level ends with Wile E. smashing into the wall. Ah, the nostalgia. ===================== Level 02: Cliff Chase ===================== Head right and onto the lower ledge. Jump on the nearby bird if possible, then head right and grab all of the stars. At the cactus, head onto the upper ledge and drop down along the trunk of the cactus. Head left (despite the signs) and grab the stars. Jump over the gap to get more on the other side, but beware the flying bird around there. On this ledge, jump to the left, over the hungry plants, and try to fall along the trail of stars. At the bottom are some springboards you use can get some you missed. To the right of the springboards is a ground-hugging enemy. Jump on him, then use the nearby teleporter. Head right and grab all of the stars, same as usual, but beware the hungry plants at the far right. After you return, head right and, past the base of the waterfall, you'll find some seed. Munch on it (it's also a checkpoint!), then head right. You'll soon encounter another thing of seed (checkpoint) past a sign pointing up. Grab some of the nearby stars, too, if you want, then return left to the up-pointing signs. Ascend the ledges. Beware of the crab on the wider ledge as you go up. From the crab's ledge (bounce on him if you want), go right another ledge. Grab the stars and the seed from there, then go right a ledge and jump down to get the stars you can see. Then backtrack to the crab's ledge and go on up another. Then jump to the ledge above there and eat some seed and head right. Just as you leave the decline, you'll deal with another bird. He's a bit evasive and not worth trying to defeat, so just bypass him. Further right, jump down along the trail of stars. At the bottom, defeat the nearby bird, then eat from the plate of seed nearby, which also happens to be a checkpoint. Then head to the right for a bit and, at the large vertical wall, ascend onto the ledge above. Use the springboard to get onto the higher mid-air ledges above and to the left. Head left across them, bewaring of the bird as you go. The last few ledges contain a useful quantity of stars, so feel free to get them, then head across the next few ledges to the right. Once you pass the large vertical wall, drop down below and head right. You'll see a few plates of seed - feel free to use them now or later, but note that the lower one is also a checkpoint. Go right along the ground for a while and you'll soon reach a few dripping stalactites. Bypass them carefully, get some stars on the way, then, next to the waterfall, hit ground level and head left. You'll grab a fair number of stars on the way. Continue back left, as there's nothing of interest further to the right. Ascend the ledges just to the right of the first waterfall - the ledges with the up-pointing signs. At the top, defeat the nearby bird if you want, then eat the seed nearby, which is also a checkpoint. Go right and downhill, but carefully so - there's a bird and a hungry plant nearby. Just to the right of the latter is another seed dish that functions as a checkpoint. Contineu to the right and across the gap that is the waterfall. JUMP over the edge of the ledge here - there are plants at the bottom! Hit ground level and head right. As you go, Wile E. will ride back in on his firework. Eat the nearby seed, dodging Wile E. as needed. Note that the seed is a checkpoint, too! Go right for some more seed, and continue right for ever more. Jump over the plant to the right and you will find a third seed dish. Go back left to the checkpoint and head up the nearby ledges here. At the top, cross over to the right and get the sixteen seconds' worth of stars there and go right two more ledges. Get the twelve seconds' worth of stars on that ledge, and eat the seed on the ledge to the left if you want. Continue right across several more ledges to find the exit. Let Wile E. slam into the wall so we can go on to the next level. ============================= Level 03: Tired and Feathered ============================= Begin by going right and over the edge of the ledge. Go left and grab all of the stars there, then head right. As you approach the next ledge, get on it and collect the stars there. Also try to beat the bird flying nearby, and eat the seed, too. Go right and beware the tumbleweed that soon comes by. Continue right past the cacti and over the edge of the ledge, then head left to get a bunch of stars. Go back to the right after getting the last ones. Sometime after going off of a ledge, further to the right will be a seed dish; eat from it for a checkpoint and continue right. Get on the next ledge and, there, eat some more seed if you want. Go to the group of sixteen stars to the right and take them, defeating the nearby bird as well, if you want. Go right a ledge and get sixteen more stars from there, then hit the ground. Go right across the sandy pit for even more stars. On the other side, jump to the ledge above for more stars and some seed. Defeat the nearby bird and go left another ledge for a few more stars and some seed that dually functions as a checkpoint. Hit the ground and head to the right. Grab the stars atop the hill, and those from the ledge above it. Ignore the evasive bird and return to ground level. Go right for a bit, grabbing stars and dodging birds and tumbleweeds. You'll soon meet up with a plate of seed. Eat from it for the checkpoint, then go right and uphill. At the edge of the ledge, jump to the right to land on an upper mid-air ledge with some stars and seed. Peruse both and go to the next ledge for more stars and more seed. Also, you'll notice Wile E. coming along the bottom in a car - obviously, that'll hurt you, so don't go there. You can, however, safely jump on the vehicle. Hit ground level and go right for a bit. You'll soon reach a depressed area - duck down there to dodge Wile E., then go right. You'll see a ledge above; use Wile E.'s vehicle as a stepping stone to get up there for some more stars and some seed that functions as a checkpoint. Hit ground level and go right, ducking in the pit as you go. Use Wile E.'s vehicle to get to the upper ledge again and find more stars and more seed. Go right from there and use the vehicle once more as a stepping stone to the next ledge above you. This time, you'll reach the exit, triggering Wile E. to get in a car accident. ========================= Level 04: Highway Runnery ========================= When you begin, U-turn around to the four stars beneath the starting platform. Go right and collect the ground-level stars there, and the ones on the ledge above. Take down the bird nearby, then jump right from this ledge to another one containing eight stars. Hit the ground after collecting them and head uphill. As you head right, try to jump on the bird near the ledge, then jump down from there along the star trail. Go left and jump over the wall to reach a stockpile of stars. ^_^ Grab them and return to the other side of the wall. Continue rightward for a bit and you'll see some stars beneath a ledge. Get those and the others above it. Defeat the nearby bird and get on the ground. Eat the seed there (checkpoint!) and head to the ledge to the right. Get the dozen stars atop it. Then do a running jump rightward from the ledge top to reach another ledge, atop which you'll find some more stars. Jump right one more ledge for four more stars. As you reach this area, Wile E. will start running underneath with his vehicle again. -_- Jump rightward and collect the 14 stars on there, and eat the seed. Defeat or ignore the nearby bird and head right along ground level. You will soon see a ledge above you. Use Wile E.'s vehicle, as in the previous level, as a stepping stone to the ledge above. Get the stars and seed/checkpoint from there, then jump right a ledge for four more stars, and right another for six more. Hit ground level and go right a bit to see some stars (18 in all) in the air. Grab 'em and continue on - just beware of Wile E. Further to the right is another ledge you'll need Wile E. so you can get on there. Do so and get the stars and seed/checkpoint there. Hit ground level and go right some more. There will be another mid-air ledge. Use Wile E., as before, to get up there for another four stars. Proceed rightward along ground level for a similar ledge with seven stars and some seed. Proceed ever further rightward on the ground to find another mid-air ledge - jump on the vehicle, as before, to get to it. This time, it's just seed and a checkpoint. Go further right along ground level and, past the depression on the ground, are some more stars. Grab 'em and jump from Wile E's vehicle to the nearby ledges, where you'll find more stars in addition to some seed. Proceed right across the ledges for more stars and more seed, this one also yielding a checkpoint. Hit ground level and go right. Jump onto the next ledge via Wile E. to find -- you guessed it -- more stars and more seed. You'd think Roadrunner would be fat with all this seed he's been eating, huh? :P Jump right a ledge for eight more stars, then continue to the right along ground level. You'll find another ledge you need Wile E. to jump to - so do so for the final eight stars of the level. Then jump right across the gap to find the exit. Approach the sign and Wile E. will wreck the car. Again. ========================== Level 05: Bird in the Bush ========================== When you start, go right for a bit. Once you reach the waterfall, try to defeat the bird nearby, then jump into the water. Then head left. Jump onto the upper ledge to try and get some stars and to defeat the bird up there. Continue left and downhill along that trail of stars, then return to the previous ledge. Jump left onto another ledge where five more stars reside. Return to ground level and head rightward again. Stay along the ground for a while, dodging a few enemies as you go. Once you reach the incline heading up, you'll want to jump into the waterfall just past it. Then head left. Defeat the ground-hugging enemy with a jump, then collect the stars to the left. Go into the teleporter nearby and, within, collect a bunch of stars. Just beware the plants, though. Once you return from the teleporter, go left and onto the hill, then right and up the ledges. At the top, proceed right, and kill the bird as you go ahead and grab the stars on the next ledge. Continue right to find some seed to eat, then jump over the next plants and eat some more seed - eat only the second batch here, though! Then drop down over the edge of the ledge to ground level. Get the fifteen stars to the left of you and defeat the bird nearby. Continue left and into the gap. Defeat the crab-like enemy down here and grab all of the nearby stars as you head right. Continue right and you'll find some seed and a checkpoint. Jump onto the ledges above and go right and uphill. Ignroe the bird you pass, as well as the plants and first batch of seed. The second batch is safe to eat, though. Soon, you'll reach the edge. Jump down along the trail of stars. Go left for a bit and, past the plants, you'll find some stars. There's another set just past the waterfall, but go no further unless you want to do some pointless backtracking. So head to the right until you can reach some upper ledges. Go ahead and plunder them for some seed, then go to the far right for more seed and a checkpoint. Nearby, you'll see a stalactite pointing down. You can find it to the left, just between the two plants. There is a switch poking up from there. Use the 2 Button to trigger the switch, which will make an elevator rise from beneath the tree to the right. Ride said elevator and jump onto the high ledge to the right. Try to defeat the bird there, too. Feel free to eat the nearby dish of seed, then go right and jump down along the trail of stars. Eat the seed to the right, which is also a checkpoint, then go right for a bit. As you pass the waterfall, Wile E. will come in on a helipack. Dodge him as he flies around sporadically, then progress rightward along ground level, dodging the plants, too, as you go. You'll reach some stars at one point, in addition to some seed. From there, just go back to the left and get onto the small ledge, then right onto the next ledge. Progress rightward, dodging plants and Wile E., as you go on. You'll find some more seed partway there. Eat it and go further right. Ascend the ledges, then jump across the ledges to the left. Ascend those at the end and head right across the ledges. Beware the hungry plant on the first one you jump to, though! At the rightmost ledge is the exit, which'll trigger Wile E.'s propeller to fly off without him. :P ====================== Level 06: Gone to Seed ====================== Begin by heading right for a bit. Bounce on the crab on the way, and beware of the dripping stalactites. You'll soon reach a tree. Defeat the bird nearby and jump onto the ledge above and to the left. Head left along the path, grabbing stars and avoiding plants. Go up a ledge at the end of the path. Look out for the dripping stalactite and proceed right, dodging plants and grabbing stars. At the end, head uphill, grabbing more stars, defeating a bird, and avoiding some plants. Head back to the base of this incline and fall off of the right side. Go right for a bit. You'll deal with some plants and pools of (harmless) water. Past the second plant, you'll reach a series of stars. Carefully grab them - if you jump too much in the water, you'll go onto the ledge above and have to come back here for the stars. Once you have the stars, proceed to the right where you'll find a square group of 25 stars above the arrow sign. Jump from the nearby incline - you don't have to go all too far up - to get them, then proceed uphill. Further along is a rectangular set of 28 stars. ^_^ Continue onto the ledge above and to the left. Defeat the crab up there and grab the seed, then head up and right a ledge. Defeat the bird there and jump right from the ledge to find another ledge. Defeat the crab there and trigger the switch. Ride the elevator you activated to the top. Defeat the bird on the next ledge and grab the seed, then drop off of the right side of the ledge. When you land, drop off the left side. Grab the seed/checkpoint nearby, then beat up the crab. Proceed right for a bit, dodging plants and dripping stalactites. Defeat the usual ground-hugging enemy near the teleporter, then use said teleporter. Grab the massive amount of stars in that area, dodging plants and eating the seed at the far right side in the meantime. When you return, head right for a bit and jump onto the higher ledge for some seed. Then jump ledft a ledge and go along to find more seed and more stars. Defeat the crab nearby, then head right and onto the higher ledge. Eat the seed there and head left for a bit. Past the plant, get on the higher ledge and grab the stars there and defeat the bird. Go back right for a bit to the previous thing of seed and go right from there. Grab the stars and head onto the upper ledge. Head right and across the ledges, defeating the bird on the way. At the rightmost ledge, jump down along the trail of stars. Eat the seed at the bottom for a checkpoint, then head left if you want to beat a bird. Head right for a bit and, as you progress up the incline, feel free to divert to the first mid-air ledge to beat a crab. Continue right and uphill and onto the next higher ledge you see. Grab the stars there, but be wary of the plant and the bird. Continue up the hill, atop which you'll find seed and a bird. Defeat the bird if you want, but don't eat the seed - it causes a damaging earthquake. Go right and downhill, grabbing a few stars on the way. At the bottom, you'll find a few dishes of seed, and Wile E. will come by on his helipack. Progress rightward, eating seed as desired and dodging Wile E. and the plants. Get onto the higher ledge at the end of the path and jump left across a few ledges. Jump up a few more at the end, then, at the star-filled ledges, head rightward for a bit, jumping across said ledges. When you have no more small ones to the right, jump right anyways, landing on a larger ledge below. Jump right (and up as needed) a ledge to find the exit. ======================= Level 07: Rock 'N' Roll ======================= As a note of trivia, Rock and Roll are the Japanese names of the characters MegaMan and Roll from the MegaMan series. Of course, that's the inspiration anyways - it's actually RockMan, not MegaMan. Upon beginning go right and jump down along the trail of stars. Defeat the bird at the bottom if you want, then go right and past the plant to the lower level. Head left for stars and seed, and also jump on the nearby scorpion to defeat it. Head to the right and onto the higher ledges when you reach them. The first set will take you to some springboards, which lead to some stars and a bird. Feel free to defeat it, then jump right onto the top of the second set of ledges, where you'll find a nice amassing of stars. Also beware the scorpion and plants, and feel free to munch on the seed, which is also a checkpoint. Yum yum. Head to the right, onto the hill. Dodge the plants and jump on the scorpion as you head right. Defeat the bird near the dish of seed, eat said seed, then jump down along the trail of stars nearby. Squish the scorpion at the bottom and head right. Get on the first ledge you see to beat another scorpion and eat some seed. Continue right and you'll soon see a lower area filled with stars. Go down there and grab them, then go back left and onto the upper ledge. Defeat the bird nearby and proceed right. Defeat the scorpion and continue on - ignore the seed, as eating it will trigger an earthquake that will damage you. As you continue right onto the hill, jump to the right and you'll find a higher ledge with a teleporter on it. First defeat the nearby enemy, then enter the teleporter. Within, jump across the water quickly, ascend the ledges, and head left to find a bunch of stars. When you return, jump right at the stars. Eat the seed for a checkpoint and health, defeat the nearby scorpion, and grab the rest of the stars on this ledge. Go right to the upward incline. There's nothing much down below, unless you want some seed, so don't worry about it too much. Continue up to the top of the incline. Go right for a bit, dodging plants and defeating birds. Feel free to eat the seed near the down-pointing arrow sign. Jump down around there and hook left to reach a teleporter. Defeat the nearby enemy and use the teleporter to reach an area with some more stars. Afterwards, when you return, go left and off of the ledge to find another. (Ledge, obviously.) Eat from the seed there and defeat the bird flying around to the right. Continue right along ground level, past some plants, to find some seed. Go right from here while dodging the plants and Wile E. will come along on some rocket skates. Ascend the ledge at the far right to get some seed, then head left. Dodge plants, dodge Wile E., ignore the seed dish you first come across. Continue left past the lower upper ledge to grab some stars, then use the aforementioned ledge to proceed to the higher ledges on the right. Go right and get the stars along that path, then return. Get on the ledges above and to the left. At the top, you'll find some seed. EAT ONLY FROM THE LEFT BATCH - the other batch will hurt you. Then jump to the right and go along the higher path to the exit. ======================= Level 08: Coyote Canyon ======================= Be careful of the nearby dripping stalactite, then go right and uphill. From the arrow sign, jump left to the ledge above where you started. There, dodge the plants and dripping stalactite as you proceed onto the left ledges. Go on up, eating some seed on the way. At the top, collect the stars, eat the seed (also a checkpoint), and feel free to beat the nearby bird. From here, return to ground level and head rightward and up the hill from before. Defeat the scorpion on the way, then go up the ledges to the left to find stars, seed, then more stars and a bird at the top, oily ledge. Head back to ground level and further right and over the edge of the ledge. Go right along the path and get the stars, but beware of the dripping stalactites. Further right, you'll find some seed, some plants, and some ledges. Climb up the ledges to more seed and more stars. Defeat the bird up there and DON'T eat the seed - it's a trap. Dodge the plant nearby and head back right to ground level, then left past the oily field. Past the plants and another dripping stalactite is a teleporter. Defeat the nearby ground-hugging enemy and eat the seed to the left, then enter the teleporter. Go around in there and jump around to grab some stars before you return to the main area. Head left and jump back onto the hill, then right and jump onto the ledges, then onto the wooden platforms. Beware the plants as you climb up. Eat the seed at the top - it's also a checkpoint - then jump right from the platform to find another. Defeat the nearby bird and grab the stars. DON'T eat the seed nearby, though - more traps. The second dish of seed is safe, though, and also a checkpoint. Head right from this ledge to find a ledge half-occupied by plants. Drop off of the right side of this ledge to ground level, then head right, past a plant. Ascend the first ledges you can, then go left to find a scorpion to beat, if you wish. Then go right and past some annoying plants. Defeat the scorpion near where the incline plateaus and head right some more to find more stars. Go left and onto the wooden ledges. Dodge some plants up there and defeat the bird as you approach the seed. Eat it for a checkpoint AND a health boost, then go back rightward. Ascend the platforms near where you grabbed the stars and eat the seed. Defeat the enemy nearby and return to the hill. Go right and you'll see a ledge nearby with some seed on it. Get up there and DON'T eat the seed. Just go right and defeat an enemy and grab a bunch of stars. Go back left to the ledges atop the hill and proceed right from the seed platform to the higher wooden ledge. Defeat the nearby bird and eat the seed/checkpoint there. Proceed right onto the next purplish ledge. Defeat the scorpion there and go right off the ledge to ground level. Dodge the nearby plant and defeat the scorpion, then proceed right along ground level to another scorpion and some stars. Ascend the ledges to the left, then go to the right to find a large pile of seed. Eat it, go up a ledge, then go left a ledge. Collect the stars and dodge the plants up here. Also defeat the bird and eat the seed, which is also a checkpoint. Head right a ledge, then onto the lower ledge and go right for seed and stars. Go up the ledges here for more stars, then drop off of the right side of the wooden ledge and head left. Defeat the scorpion down here and grab some more stars. Go left and hit ground level, then run right and get the stars. At the end of the path, eat the seed/checkpoint above you, then head right along ground level. Dodge plants, grab stars, and dodge Wile E. as he comes again on his jet skates. Eat the seed you come across as you wish. Note that third bunch is also a checkpoint. Return to the far left and get onto the upper wooden ledge and repeat the idea of dodging plants and Wile E., and eating seed. Both batches as you go rightward are safe. Ascend the ledges at the end and head left, dodging more plants and more Wile E. Feel free to eat the seed on the way. Continue along left and ascend the ledges at the end. DON'T eat the seed there or you'll get hurt. Continue rightward, past more plants and more Wile E. to find the exit. ======================== Level 09: Down and Under ======================== Begin by going right and jumping down along the stars. Get the rest at the bottom and head left. Defeat the ground-hugging enemy and go right. Defeat the scorpion and continue on, unfazed. :P Collect the stars on the ledge you see across the gap and defeat the scorpion there. Go right, off of the ledge, to find more stars. Grab them, too, and eat the seed nearby. Head left to find more seed. Eat it - it's also a checkpoint. Continue left some more and over the gap. Defeat the bat nearby and eat only the seed that is at the FAR left. The one near the gap will hurt you. Speaking of the gap, go down it. When you hit the ground, beware of the mine carts that may come by - they hurt unless you jump on top of them. Proceed right, dodging bats, dodging dripping stalactites, and getting stars. After a bit, you'll see the upper roof open up. Use a cart to get on the ledge nearby. Eat the seed nearby, then head right. Beware the fire, it burns! Defeat the ground-hugging enemy and continue along into the teleporter. In the starry room, use the springboards to rapidly go all over the room and collect the stockpile of stars. Back on the other seed, proceed left, back to where the dish of seed was, then get on the next ledge to the left. Head onto the wooden platforms above and eat the seed, then proceed right and get the stars. Also be sure to smash the scorpion partway across. At the right side, go along the lower wooden path. Begin by defeating the scorpion and going right to find some seed. Eat it and go back left and down a level. Head right and IGNORE that seed. Jump right and defeat the ground-hugging enemy, if you want, then go left and down to the icy cart-filled area. Head right, grabbing stars and such like before. Eventually, you'll see Wile E. fly by on a jetpack. This is basically like with the helipack, but he'll just be a tad faster. Eventually, the upper area will open up. Use a cart to get up there like before and proceed onto the ledges to the right. Eat the seed you see, one of which is a checkpoint. Then go left and to those ledges. Cross the icy-fiery fields (LOL) and get the stars as you go along. At the left side, enter the teleporter and, in that area, simple go about and collect more stars. When you return, go along the wooden platforms to the right. Just keep jumpin' along them and you'll soon reach the exit. And Wile E., as usual, exhibits a classic fail. ====================== Level 10: Up and Under ====================== Begin by goign right and down into the mine, as before. Defeat the nearby bat, if you want, then go left if you wanna fight a scorpion. Then head to the right and cross to the icy field below this wooden platform. On the other side, you will find some seed. Eat, ya skinny bird. Then cross to the other side of the gap. There, collect the easily-reached stars on and above the icy field. Feel free to eat the seed that is on the ice, and the one further above that dish. The dish furthest right is also safe, and will also function as a checkpoint. Woo hoo. Go left and into the gap the signs point to. Yay, more icy fields and carts! =/ Head rightward, as in the previous level. When the upper area opens up, first go right a bit more and collect the small stash of stars, then get into that upper area. Collect the stars nearby, then head left for more. Defeat the scorpion nearby while you're at it and eat some seed. Go right along the wooden platforms for more stars, and seed. Drop off of the right side and defeat the nearby scorpion, then head left for some more stars and seed, which is also a checkpoint. Head to the right and along the upper wooden platforms. Defeat the bat and collect some stars. Dodge the dripping stalactites and continue on to find some seed. Eat it - it's also a checkpoint - then jump to the ledge above and to the right. Collect the stars there, then hit ground level. Go left and along the icy field for more stars. Go right from there to find, past the wooden platforms, more stars. Collect the seed beneath the teleporter and beat the enemy that is near it, then enter the matr -- I mean teleporter. On the other side, collect the stars on each level and jump up to the next level to find more. Repeat this until you return. When you do, proceed to the right to find some more seed. Eat it, as it is also a checkpoint. Also defeat the nearby enemy, then go right to ground level. Beat up the scorpion crawling along here and eat the seed. Go right along the wooden path to find starts and seed, but beware the dripping stalactites. At the end, go left and grab the stars, but don't eat the seed, as you'll get hurt. Then jump to the left across the gap. Head left some more and get some more stars, then go back to the right and into the gap. Head right, past the carts on the icy field as before. Beware the bats as you go. Soon, Wile E. will come on by again. When the upper area opens up, get there with a cart. Eat the nearby seed (also a checkpoint) and get the stars to the right. Then head left and jump over the flames to more seed. IGNORE IT - it'll hurt you - and continue left. You will find more (safe) seed, plus some stars. There is also more safe seed and stars to the left. Once you get both, go right and leap across the wooden platforms. Be sure to get the group of stars you see partway (don't worry, a ledge is beneath them) and jump right from there to find the exit. ==================== Level 11: Speed Seed ==================== Begin by going right and collecting the stars beneath the ledge. Get on top of said ledge and defeat the crab there, then collect the stars on this ledge and the ledge to the left. Hit the ground and go right, bewaring of tumbleweeds, those vicious monsters. :P When you seed the wooden platform, get atop it and collect the stars. Defeat the bird flying around the middle, then go left and eat the seed. Go right as well and you'll find some seed. Munch on it - it's also a checkpoint - then go right. Hit ground level and go left. Defeat the enemy and collect the stars further left, then go right and up the incline for more stars. At the top, try to defeat the bird flying around, then head right and up another incline. Collect the stars near the top and head right. Get on the wooden platforms and collect the stars there. Defeat the nearby bird as you reach the right ledge and eat the seed there, too, for it is a checkpoint. Go right another ledge (to a purplish one) and get the stars there. But don't eat from the dish of seed, as it'll hurt you. Hit ground level and collect the stars to the left. Then go right and up the incline. Collect the stars as you and ascend to the higher ledges when you have a chance. Defeat the bird flying around here and eat the seed, as it is both health-ful and checkpoint-ful. -_- Contineu to the right for a bit. Collect the stars near the top of the next incline. Feel free to beat the bird there, too, then go right from the lower incline, "through" the other incline to the stars. Collect them and go right some more. Collect the seed on the ledge near the arrow, then the stars further right. Get the stars on the nearby wooden platform, and the seed, too. (It'll heal you.) Try jumping on the bird to the right and landing on the wooden ledge there. Collect the stars and the seed there. (The second batch is a checkpoint.) At this point, Wile E. will come out in an ACME van. ... Well, whatever. This portion of the level will mostly consist of using Wile E.'s van to jump up to the higher ledges for stars and seed, much like the previous time he did this. There isn't much to mention about this portion of the level. I will note that the third ledge is reachable without Wile E., but the seed atop it will hurt you. The fourth ledge is still reachable without Wile E., and one seed batch contains a checkpoint. The sixth ledge also has a checkpoint. You'll need to use Wile E. to get to the exit at the far right. ============================= Level 12: Hop, Skip, and Jump ============================= Begin by going right. Get the stars beneath the oily ledge, then get on said ledge. Defeat the nearby bird and get the stars atop it. Hit ground level and head right. Get the stars beneath the next ledge, then get on the ledge and defeat the bird there, then get the stars on the ledge. Hit ground level and go right. You should see some seed. Eat it and go right. Collect the stars from the wooden platform nearby, then go right and get the stars below it. Defeat the crab on the second wooden platform and eat the seed (also a checkpoint). Go right and up and down a hill. DON'T eat the seed on the other side, as it'll damage you. Do feel free to take your rage at losing a free meal out on the nearby bird, though. >:) Hit ground level and proceed right, grabbing more stars as you do. There are more stars on the second ledge, plus some safe seed (also another checkpoint). Jump to the right from there onto the oily ledge and get the stars atop it. Also feel free to defeat the nearby bird. Continue on right as Wile E.'s ACME van passes below. This portion of this level is much like the previous one's. Dodge the van to get the stars reachable on the lower level, and use the van as a stepping stone to the higher ledges. - The second ledge has seed with a checkpoint, so feel free to munch on it. - The seed on the third ledge will hurt you with an earthquake. DON'T EAT IT. - The fourth ledge has seed with a checkpoint, so feel free to munch on it. - The sixth ledge has seed with a checkpoint, so feel free to munch on it. - The seventh ledge's rightmost seed will damage you, so don't eat it. - The eighth ledge's seed will also damage you. - The topmost seed on the ninth ledge is also a checkpoint. The final ledge, two left of the previously mentioned (ledge eleven), will require you to jump from Wile E.'s van to reach it. Feel free to eat the seed atop it, then go right to the exit. -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- CONGRATULATIONS!
