Let’s Play The Lost World – JP #04: Deep Diving Out of Trouble
84The fifth level of this game is one that, until now, I’d never had much luck with. At first glance, it appears to be a huge difficulty spike, presenting unavoidable damage with enemies that deal a lot of damage quickly while in said unavoidable damage. Add to that that the eggs you need to find are scattered all over the place with no obvious way to reach each one and you’ve got a recipe for confusion and failure.
After practising the level for a bit I discovered that, contrary to what I believed, it’s not that bad. If you resist the rush about trying to complete the level as quickly as possible like I was before, you’ll discover that you have more than enough resources scattered about to survive lengthy underwater excursions. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that there’s too many health pickups, but I won’t say no to a surplus of those. Provided you get all the eggs you can from the above water area first, then diligently follow where the objective radar points you to when submerged, you’ll be done before you know it.
As for the level beyond it, let’s just say that the game makes an attempt to add a new twist to something we’ve seen before. Your mileage may vary on how effective they were.
