•••Spoiler:   turn on the goggles, run to the left end of the room. Shoot him like hell and listen to the sound he makes when he shoots. That's a hint for you to jump and avoid being hit. Try to circle him from above when gets close and repeat. It takes a while to get the timming, but you'll get it. Never mind the enemies that become invisible, they cause insignificant damage.

Anyhow, I'm doing a lot of random wandering, sort of getting to know the places. Went to the red place, the steel place, the sand place (as far as I can get). Only upgrade I have is I think 3 healths and the 2-block height jump.

Is there some area I should concentrate on to progress? There's so much I can explore and end up doing nothing productive and I don't want to spend hours and hours at it, a general idea would be awesome.

Thanks

You should go to the castle area first. From the first screen go right all the way without entering caves or doors. It's a good start regarding powerups

Thank you!
Now to find my way back to the start-ish... :-D
The lack of the map is sort of nice...really wish for saverooms though...

[gustavohmc]

There are saverooms, they are a little far from each other, though. There is one on the way to the castle. And one in the upper levels of the castle too. Enjoy the exploration, the game world is amazing

You find them after killing the eye boss.

[Tranceaholic]

You get the goggles after •••Spoiler:  defeating the eye boss; it is located in the green area which is left of the starting point. I forget exactly where, but you enter a green brick area just before you encounter this boss.

[gustavohmc]

i have only 2 green squares left to find...
I have almost memorized the whole place, i'm wandering around for ages now. Any ideas of difficult, hidden, odd places?

I heard that the second mummy is not worth beating, but is there any area after
you beat it?

Also •••Spoiler:   there's an area near the boss under the infinite teleports screen that plays the tune of the boss fights, but there's nothing in the room. Anyone got there? You have to drop from a room with blue bricks.

[Tranceaholic]

You mean the room with water at the bottom and green blocks and yellow pillars in the background? Yeah, I've also been there. Judging by his previous responses, I'm guessing Wade planned to put a boss there, but abandoned the idea in the end.

hey guys, i've beaten both the Knight and the Giant Snail, but can't return in the surface and can't move forward in the game, i'm stucked... there's a way up somewhere?
thanks in advance!
