Just like magic!

Yep, that's right, just jumping and shooting. /\ /\ /\ ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ )( 3] In-depth Walkthrough ( ) sx300 )( ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ \/ \/ \/ There are 3 stages in this game, but only if you chose Hard Mode from the start. If you chose otherwise, you'll only have 2 stages. Each stage is composed by 2 areas, Daytime and Nighttime. Let's get started with this guide because I wanna get it finished today! =) -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-.-~-~-~- Stage #1 - Daytime: A Journey through Transylvania | sx301 -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-'-~-~-~- Right on! Start by running right, jump over the water (water hurts you for some awkward reason >_>) and hit the ? block to receive a big heart. Keep going right, kill the skeleton and you'll see three paths under you. Jump on top of the left one and press down while jumping to break the floor. Once down here, jump on the ledge over the spikes, hit the ? block to receive the Axe weapon (horrible weapon BTW). Break the floor next to the block and go right. Go through the wall and before breaking the ? blocks, jump on them then jump on the ledge to do something with the civilian there (I really don't know what he does, so if you know, email me, please). Return and go left, jump on the ledge and have it take you to the top. Wait for the spikes to go into the floor, go right, jump on the ? blocks and go left to find some more ? blocks. Drop down to the bottom, jump over the water puddle, kill the skeleton and the bat, jump over the gap and end this stage. -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-.-~-~-~- Stage #1 - Nighttime: A Journey through Transylvania | sx302 -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-'-~-~-~- From the start, before breaking the ? block, jump on it to reach the upper ledges. Destroy the ? blocks, then destroy the one you used to get up the ledges. Go right from this ? block and jump on the floating ledge, then on the other one until you reach the other side. Break the ? block and keep going right and you'll find some more ? blocks. There's a new enemy here, the Zombie. Just wait for it to come up and strike it. Break all the ? blocks here and break the ones on the lower left of these 2 ledges before you proceed. Keep going right killing Zombies and breaking ? blocks and at the end, turn on the lantern and drop down. Boss time at the end. ---- The Shadow ----------------------------------------------------- This boss is pretty easy. There are 2 levels on this, the upper part and the lower one. When you see some smoke on the right, if it's on the upper part, jump down and wait for it to return to the shadows to hit it (you CAN hit it twice). If it comes from the lower part, jump to the upper part and do the same thing. Ta-Da, boss finished. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-.-~-~-~- Stage #2 - Daytime: Trapped in Castle Dracula | sx303 -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-'-~-~-~- Break the ? block, jump over the spikes and look at the red lever in between the 2 skulls. Hit it!!! REMEMBER TO HIT IT! Anyway, jump over the lava, break the ? block to receive more time. Jump over the spikes, then the gap and jump on the moving white platform (this platform only moves if you hit the lever I told you to hit). Once on top, jump over the lava and on the top, a ghost appears, so move carefully and avoid it. Then jump down on the platform and crouch to avoid the bats. At the end, jump on the ledges. Another ghost appears on top. Wait for the spikes to go in again and break the ? block when you reach it. Another ghost appears on the other side of the next spikes. Destroy it and keep going right avoiding the spikes (a ghost appears after each set of spikes). Jump on the red platform and go right, avoid the spikes. Hope on the platform and crouch as soon as you get on it. Jump on the red platforms, destroy the hand, go right, kill the bat, avoid the spikes then jump on the platform. Another hand appears before the end of the platform ride, so be careful. Now jump to reach the next platform and move right to exit the area. -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-.-~-~-~- Stage #2 - Nighttime: Trapped in Castle Dracula | sx304 -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-'-~-~-~- Use the ? block to reach the upper ? block. Now jump over the water puddles, grab the ? block from the upper ledge and kill the shooter on the right with the weapon you just got. Don't break the ? block on top of the spikes and use it to cross them. Kill the Zombie on the other side of these spikes and jump on the ledge that's above the water. The one that's under this one is a moving platform. Drop down on it, follow it right then jump on the other one, which is above then one you're on. Stay on this platform (ignore the ? block) and go through the wall. There are some ? blocks, so break them and go down the right side. Break the floor and break the next 3 ? blocks. Now exit through the right wall. Jump on the ledge to avoid the spikes and another hand appears just before the next set of spikes. Jump over them and a ghost appears. Drop down and another damn ghost appears next to the red lever. Hit the lever and jump on the platform. On the other side, touch the lantern and go right. This enemy is not a boss (not that I recall it of being) and you can't hit it. You only need to evade it a certain amount of time. When it appears either on the top right or top left side of the room, jump over it as it comes. When it appears in the top middle, just crouch. That's it, so move on. On the other side, go to the far left and break the floor there (on the far left). Kill the bat and the spider then break the ? blocks. Now move right, killing Zombies and avoiding the fireballs from the top. A ghost appears on top of the spikes. Jump on the platform, jump over the blocks until you get to the other side. Touch the lantern and kill the bats as they come. Now go right to the end boss, I believe. ---- Dracula ----------------------------------------------------- Dracula is a bastard. Yeah, that's right. He starts out by shooting fireballs on a diagonal line from his shoulders (like these diagonals / \). Just jump over them. Right afterwards, a blue aura appears around him and pulls you in. Then he'll shoot fireballs again and the blue aura appears once more. ------------------------------------------------------------------ -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-.-~-~-~- Stage #3 - Daytime: | sx305 -~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-'-~-~-~- /\ /\ /\ ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ )( 4] Latest Update ( ) sx400 )( ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ \/ \/ \/ = Version BSD (November 23rd, 2009) - Only 1 stage left. /\ /\ /\ ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ )( 5] Closing ( ) sx500 )( ~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)(~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~ \/ \/ \/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ 5.1] Credits ~-~ ~-~ ~-~ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-.sx501.-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= '-----' 1.
