*'''Weapon Received''': Shotgun Ice


Chill Penguin can shoot ice cubes across the screen at you as well as create miniature penguin ice sculptures. When he grabs the handle on the ceiling, he'll create a snowstorm and the sculptures will slide across the floor. Chill Penguin can also dash across the floor. The Fire Wave will make short work of him; just be careful when attacking as the Fire Wave has a very short range.
Chill Penguin has a variety of attacks. He can shoot ice pellets at you (either straight across at speed or slower along the floor), blow freezing breath to create two ice decoys (if you get caught in the breath, you get stuck to the floor), leap at you, and slide along the floor. He can also pull a hook in the ceiling to blow you around briefly with a blizzard. Ice blocks shots and he's invincible in his slide. The Fire Wave will make short work of him; just be careful when attacking as the Fire Wave has a very short range.

This battle is made much easier if you shoot Armored Armadillo with at least one Electric Spark; it will electrocute him and cause his armor to fall off, making it impossible for him to block attacks. Armored Armadillo will attack by shooting Hadoken-like fireballs and rolling across the screen at you. Simply move out of the way of his rolling and jump over the fireballs (or climb the wall) and Armadillo is a pushover.

*'''Weapon Received''': Chameleon Sting
*'''Weapon Received''': Chameleon Sting


Sting Chameleon is one of the trickier bosses to defeat, mainly because he uses so many different attacks. He will jump across the screen, hit you with his tongue, hang on the wall, throw Chameleon Sting at you, or hang from the ceiling (by his tongue) and make spikes fall from the ceiling. If you hit Sting Chameleon with a Boomerang Cutter, he will immediately stop whatever he's doing and jump to hang from the ceiling by his tongue and drop spikes. He is in a perfect position to be hit by another Boomerang Cutter while hanging, making the battle a simple process of jump, shoot and repeat.

*'''Weapon Received''': Storm Tornado
*'''Weapon Received''': Storm Tornado


Storm Eagle has very few moves that directly attack you; he is more likely to try and shove you off the edge of the platform. He will flap his wings to slightly push you towards the edge or he will fire Storm Tornadoes that do no damage but shove you backwards very forcefully; simply dash towards the middle of the platform to counter these attacks. He will also frequently dive bomb from the top of the screen to the bottom towards you but can easily be avoided by walking or dashing. His last attack involves launching an egg that explodes into four small birds that fly towards you, but they can be destroyed by shooting them. Chameleon Sting makes it easier to hit Storm Eagle, as it fires in three directions, but with careful timing it's just as easy to hit him with regular charged shots.

Flame Mammoth's main attacks are to jump towards you, switch the direction that the conveyor belt moves, and shoot oil and fireballs at you. If a fireball hits an oil puddle it will create a Fire Wave that travels across the screen.  To avoid this, use the Boomerang Cutter to cut off his trunk so he can no longer shoot oil puddles. By repeatedly wall jumping to the top of either wall, Flame Mammoth cannot hit you by jumping into you. When hit with Storm Tornado, Flame Mammoth will be momentarily stunned. Keep dodging and shooting and Flame Mammoth is easily beaten.

The Bosspider can only be damaged when its red eye is open and moves much faster as it takes damage. It will move along a predetermined track as it drops from the ceiling and rushes to the floor. It's only real "attack" is to launch baby spiders which will rush towards you and run up the wall. Shotgun Ice is your best bet since it fires fast and takes little weapon energy to use.

Sigma will block your attacks and charge you to attack with his lightsaber if you stay on the ground but if you wall jump he will jump diagonally from wall to wall until he is at your level. If you drop, he will jump back down as well, so use this to your advantage. Drop from the wall while firing Electric Spark and he will be unable to block it. Repeat the wall jumping and dropping/firing until he's dead.

Alternatively, if you managed to acquire the Hadouken, keep performing the combination immediately after the two screens of dialogue prior to the fight. If done correctly, you will fire off a Hadouken that will obliterate him immediately.
