Bonus stage with 100 points
Get to bonus stages by accomplishing special maneuvers on the
Rocketbelt and Parachute rounds. Ignore the rings and other
objectives in these rounds and maneuver over the moving
platform in each level. If you can land on this portion of the
target area, you will be taken to the bonus stage with a rating
of 100 points.
Rocketbelt tip
When using the Rocketbelt, you will be transformed into a
winged man. While winged, try to jump onto the trampolines
and hit the power P's before landing in the middle of the
target. When using the parachute, you will be transformed
into a penguin who must high dive into a multi-point pool.
The waters are separated by ropes which each designate
different extra point values.
Landing on the Level 1 moving platform with the parachute
Immediately rotate 90 degrees right when released (ignore rings). Hold
position until 630-40 feet, at which time pull rip-cord and then pull a
quick u-turn (180 degrees). At 225 feet, rotate 90 degrees right and
line up with the moving platform track. When you reach the track the
platform should pass underneath you and then return underneath you
(traveling the same direction as you) -- as soon as you see it flare
and hold.
Landing in the water target with the hang-glider
Hit thermal and wait till the glider levels out. Push up (dive) and
right, drop to 150 feet, pull up and line up with the target. Obtain
level flight and flare repeatedly just before the shadow hits the
bottom edge of the target (not much, you should be no higher than
25 feet).
Landing on the moving platform with the rocket-pack
Practice using the low burner and holding at 10 feet. Then practice
stabilizing your position after moving forward (tricky). Complete the
course and stabilize yourself over the platform's path in a place
where you can see it approaching (at a corner or end of the 'track').
drop like a rock the moment the edge of the platform hits your
shadow.
Bonus flight
A secret bonus flight is available to the Hang Glider at the
Skydiving Platform. While in the bonus flight, press A many
times to go as far out into the sea as possible. To get the extra
50 points, you must continue flying until you get all the way
back to the beach where you took off.
100 points and help a Penguin dive into a pool
When parachuting, land on the platform beside the bull's eye.
You'll earn 100 points, and be taken to an area where you've
got to help a Penguin dive into a pool. If you fail, you'll leave
a Penguin-shaped hole in the concrete.
100 points and a special Trampoline stage
During the Rocket Belt phase, finish everything successfully,
land back on the platform where you started and you'll earn
100 points and get to go to a special Trampoline stage.
Special flying area
Complete the Hang-Gliding game, land on the platform, and
you'll go to a special flying area.
White domes tip
If you set down on the white domes while using the Rocket Belt,
you won't lose any points and can still vault back into the sky.
Helicopter phase tip
In the Helicopter phases, if you fly very low, you'll avoid the guns.
