The Great Giana Sisters/Walkthrough

Powerups

When you hit certain bricks, you will can release a powerup. These powerups are presented in order, and are not fixed.

The first set of four are permanent:

1. The ball, which allows you to break stone bricks.
2. The lightning bolt, which gives you a normal shot.
3. Two lightning bolts, which allow your shots to bounce.
4. The strawberry, which give a homing shot. The shot will still attempt to go through walls, and you can't fire a second shot until it disappears.

The next set of four are temporary. When you collect one of these, you can no longer activate the previous one. They are held, and are activated by pressing the space bar. When all four have been shown, they will cycle back to the clock as the next powerup.

1. The clock. This freezes time, allowing you to get past certain obstacles.
2. The bomb. This item clears all enemies on screen.
3. The droplet. When carried, you can walk through fire.
4. The lollipop. You immediately gain 1 extra life.
