Stage 2-1[edit]
This stage is odd, to say the least. Try firing upwards or even jumping toward the top or bottom of the screen. The top and bottom parts wrap around to each other. You start the stage in a corridor. Walk right and destroy the two mechs on the platform you see here. Now jump up twice and continue to the right.
Continue on until you reach another series of platforms with several green electrified wall traps at either end. Stand between the two wall traps and quickly jump twice to the platform above. If you take too long, the two of them will snap shut and damage you. Walk right and continue jumping up through the platforms and avoiding the wall traps.
There's one set of them here and further ahead there will be two other sets above and below you as well as a Barrier powerup on the other side of a wall. In order to get that powerup, use the Gravity Jump and quickly jump through the platforms below to the bottom. Use the Gravity Jump again, do a short jump to activate the wall traps and then jump to the Barrier powerup.
Do another short jump and then jump up past the wall traps. Continue to the right through the corridor, use the Gravity Jump again and then jump down through set of two wall traps. Destroy the Sentry Ship ahead but watch out for the bullets it fires out from it's side. You'll be safe as long as you're on the same level as it, and not above or below it.
Do another Gravity Jump to fall to the ground and then jump through the set of four wall traps. The platforms where the wall traps are angled to the right so you have to jump a little to the right every time you pass through one to avoid getting hit. When you make it to the top, the second part of the stage is right ahead.
Expert mode: You are only given 100 units of time, which means that you must pick up the Time powerups at the ending area. And since the wall traps move faster, you are most likely going to lose the armor while picking up the time. The only good news is, you can replenish your armor at next section soon.
Stage 2-2[edit]
This part is more of the same stuff but there are a few new things thrown at you here. Fall off the side and when you're on the bottom part jump as far as you can forward over the spiked platform and then do a Gravity Jump to nab the 1-up in the nook on the far right. Don't allow yourself to land on the spikes obviously and you have to keep pressing right until you land beside the 1-up.
This isn't for the faint of heart so if you have a hard time doing a Gravity Jump just ignore it and fall off the side of the tan structure where you started and continue to the right. Do a Gravity Jump to the ceiling and walk to the far right corner where the white and pink door is. Do another Gravity Jump to make the door swing upwards, and then jump downwards.
Don't do a Gravity Jump through the door. Go to the left corner of this compartment and do another Gravity Jump. Fall off the side and do yet another Gravity Jump to open the door. Continue to the right, jump up through the platform and destroy the two turrets. You can only get the bottom one if you have the Weapon Powerup.
If you don't have it, just worry about the other turret. Once they are gone, jump to the right until you get to the spiked platform barring your way, but you already know what to do right? A Gravity Jump. Walk right a little more and then fall upwards into the hole. An Armor powerup is waiting there. Do another Gravity Jump to get out of there and one more to get back on the ceiling.
Now, jump across the hole and do a Gravity Jump to the floor and finally jump through the platforms. Whew. The stage is almost done, don't worry about that. In order to get the Barrier powerup in the little compartment below, do a Gravity Jump to the ceiling, jump through the hole and then do another Gravity Jump to snag it.
To get out, do a Gravity Jump where the door is and another to continue on. The next part is pretty neat. Fall down into the hole. It's an endless hole. You'll just keep falling and falling until you do a Gravity Jump... or go into the space on the right. Further ahead it's more of the same. Do a Gravity Jump in the corners to open the doors and then jump through the opening they make.
I'm getting tired of writing Gravity Jump every time here so I think that you can get this part on your own by now. =) When you get through the two doors, stay on the ceiling and jump through the platform to nab another powerup. You can also not go through the platform in order to get a Barrier powerup a little further ahead. It's up to you.
Continue right until you see many, many platforms layered one on top of another, as well as Sentry Ships. Turn right side up and head on through. Avoid being above or below the Sentry Ships as I said earlier and destroy them as needed. The boss is right ahead.
Stage 2 Boss[edit]
Another simple boss but there's still a chance you'll die if you're not careful. This boss consists of five laser turrets on the far right that fire every 10 seconds or so. There are platforms that you can jump to when a turret is about to fire so don't hesitate to if you see that laser beam coming. Stand on the left and destroy the laser on the platform you're on. If it's going to fire, jump up to a higher platform and start blasting the next laser. Rinse and repeat until they are all destroyed.
Expert mode: The turrets will fire in a more random pattern that, you may need to reverse gravity and "jump" downwards quickly just to dodge lasers.
