V0.9992 #5: Flood Caverns, Bouncy Bluffs and 16 Golden Shrimp per level
Two more placeholder levels are now real: Bouncy Bluffs, sunset cliffs full of bouncy mushrooms and drums, and Flood Caverns, a crystal cave where you raise and drain the water. Every finished level now hides 16 Golden Shrimp, bosses get cutscenes and a rage mode, and levels fade in and out.
Flood Caverns
- A huge crystal cave with the Big Pool in the middle. You have the splash pack here: spray on the ground, hover in the air, refill in water.
- Three valves at the pump set the pool's water: low, middle or high. At low water you can walk on the pool floor to an old chest. At high water a vent on the rock pillar erupts and throws you up to a stalactite.
- Spray five dark crystals to light up the gallery, and put out four fire pots around the cave.
- Hover across the chasm to a lonely pillar, and ride bubble lifts up two rock columns.
- The Waterfall Hall: pound the drain plug to empty its pool, find the secret room behind the falls, and slide down the water chute through four rings.
- Boss: Mama Eel pops out of the holes in her den and lunges at you. Spray her face to stun her, then jump on her head.
- Plus glow shells, cave crabs, crystal chimes, the stalagmite climb and a hidden hot spring.
Bouncy Bluffs
- Sunset cliffs with giant mushrooms that bounce you higher the harder you land on them.
- Ground-pound drums for a huge jump, climb jelly steps and bounce up the tower spiral.
- Boss: the Thunder Drum.
- Plus a jelly slide with rings, the Bounce Circle, lily pads, a cave under the pond and a tiny hidden grotto.
Everywhere else
- Tumble Blocks, Breezy Bridges, Bouncy Bluffs and Flood Caverns each hide 16 Golden Shrimp now.
- New in Tumble Blocks: ride the train, the marble run rings, the F-L-O-P letters, spinning tops, a golden jack, Bricky's Block Hop, a toy sewer under a manhole and a shrimp that runs away.
- Bosses have an intro and an outro, take 5 hits and go into a rage for the last 2. The Gale Gull has a meaner new look, and the Top King now has a red button to stomp.
- Toy soldiers take 2 hits and kick you back.
- Levels fade in when you enter and fade out when you leave.
- Tumble Blocks: the dominoes fall onto each other properly and ring a swinging bell, the train rides smoothly with a detailed engine and no longer drives through anything, and the roofs are solid.
- Breezy Bridges: a round sky island and soft, see-through clouds.
