You should achieve Chadley's score on level 2! Most of this is taken from theDailyNeopets Guide. Your job is to help the hot dog get back to Hubert's before time runs out! You can use the left and right arrow keys to move left and right, the up arrow key to jump, spacebar to shoot (pickles in this case), and the mouse to draw your paths with ketchup like in Kirby: Canvas Curse and Rainbow Curse. Your mouse is also used to aim at enemies before shooting. If you create paths in a zig-zag motion without leaving room at the end, the hot dog will fall off and you will lose a life. Jumping from one level to another is not recommended, as the hot dog cannot jump very high and often falls off the path altogether. In order to get back to Hubert, you need to collect an Order Slip, which is a piece of paper with a key on it and head for the door. On the top of the screen after the Pickle counter, there is a progress image that let's you know your progress towards opening the door back to Hubert. After that, there's are Bonus timer that goes down as you go through the level, so speed = more points. On the bottom of the screen you'll see bottles of red, yellow, and white. Those are your condiments that you can use to draw lines and are Ketchup, Mustard, and Mayo respectively, so you'll have to be strategic on how you use them for max points. Click on them to use them. Each have different effects: Ketchup: Ketchup is quite boring actually. It has no special effects or anything. Mustard: The best condiment to use most of the time, mustard is very springy and allows you to bounce right up again instead of landing on it. Mayo: Mayo acts like glue, stopping you immediately when you land on it, slowing you down when walking, and allowing you to walk all around it - even upside down. But be warned: when upside down, your controls are basically reversed, where left is right and right is left... Next to those are your lives, then a clear and undo button, so you if messed up hard and need to either undo your last mistake or clear the screen, use those buttons. You'll lose a life if you get hit by an enemy, fall, or hit the Clear button. Along the way, you can collect green Pickles (5 in one), more condiment bottles to draw more paths, find Bonus stars for extra points that literally say Bonus x? on it, and Enemies to shoot with pickles to earn a few points that will kill you on contact. Bonus Stars will give you extra points. A Bonus Star that says Bonus x1, will give you 100 points. Similarly, a Bonus x2 star will give you 200 points, and a Bonus x3 star will grant you 300 points, etc. You can get points from hitting enemies with your pickle shooters. You get a different number of points depending on the species of enemy. Blue Baby Fireball - 5 pts Purple Devil (Snolkin) - 10 pts Green Slimy Hotdog (WAT. A hotdog is an enemy, TRAITOR!) - 10pts Baby Fireball - 15pts Pink Tongue (Dribblet) - 15pts Tiny Purple Mosquito (Moquot) - 20pts Purple-Blue Bat (Barbat) - 25pts A recommended strategy is to use the mustard first to bounce along the level, dab a little mustard, jumping on it and drawing another spot of mustard right where you will land, flinging you back into the air again. Control where you will land with the arrow keys and use this strategy to bounce across the whole level and collect all the bonuses. Note that collecting pickles is less important. It's only worth it to get them if they are already in your path or they are very quick and easy to get. When you want to land for good, or need more control, switch to the mayo to get your bearings back and get whatever you need to get. For difficult items or enemies that are underneath a stationary block, use the mayo's glue-like ability to walk upside down under the block and get the item/enemy. If all else fails, turn your head upside down and see how you can get to it, but do is as FAST as you can!
