Vigilante/Stage 3

This stage takes place on a bridge, and for the first portion of it, you must defend yourself against attacks from bikers known as Hell's Angel. They will race across the bridge in an effort to run you over. The only attack that will work is a jump kick which knocks the rider off and sends the bike skidding along the ground. However, the bike will explode a short while later, and you will take damage if you're in the vicinity of the explosion. Wait for the bike to explode before moving on.

By the time you see nun-chucks on the ground, the bikers will stop and the Stranglers will begin to appear. Around the same time, two Red Mohawks will approach you from either side. Use the nun-chucks to attack them by alternating left and right. When the path ahead is safe, proceed to the right. Around the time you encounter another Red Mohawk, a Hit Man Joe will appear on the right, squatting low to the ground. Before you get close enough to him, he will shoot along the ground, forcing you to jump in the air in order to avoid the bullet. Once you are within range, he will stand up and shoot at the regular height.

For the remainder of the stage, you will have to face several Stranglers, a few Red Mohawks, and another Hit Man Joe or two. Ignore the attackers on the left as much as you are able to, and fight them if you are forced to because of another attacker on your right. Once you reach the boss, any enemies chasing behind you will turn around and run away.

Boss: Spike Boss
Also known as Hammer Thrower Gool. This boss likes to attack with a weapon, a spiked ball on a chain that he swings over his head before sending it flying toward your head. While it's important that you avoid getting hit with it at all costs, one solid attack to the Spike Boss will cause him to lose his grip on the weapon, sending it flying.

From that point on, this boss is not very different from the very first boss. He's incredibly susceptible to a non-stop barrage of attacks. Alternate between punches and kicks, standing or jumping. If you strike him fast enough, he will either block your attacks, or attempt to strike you back, only to get hit by another kick. Occasionally, he will leap over you and attack you from the other side, but the strategy against him will remain the same. Stay close to him and don't give him an opening to throw his fists. Once he connects with you, it's hard to get him to stop.
