Levels
150px | 1. Kingdom of Zebulos: The first stage begins with a walk through a burning village. Wide open spaces and high walls give the player a chance to practise their rocket pack skills. After defeating the first mini-boss, Sparkster takes flight using the Power Item. This part of the stage plays rather like a shoot-'em-up, with waves of small enemies followed by a dragon mini-boss. Once in the castle, the player is required to use walls to rebound with their rocket pack in order to ascend to the stage boss. |
