Tips
  • When encountering liquid, try cutting corners by jumping over it; the jump-charge technique may also be helpful.
  • When flaming cacti, they will turn black, shake themselves clean, and return to normal.
  • Bird Bullies are too large to be charged and must be defeated with flames.
  • When fighting the Bird Bully guarded by Birds on posts, stay back initially as one Bird will fly towards you.
  • When flaming explosive chests, flame them until they hiss, then back away to avoid damage from the explosion.
  • When fighting the Blaster Gnorc near the cliff edge, try to attack when its shield is down to minimize the risk of falling off the edge.
  • Pink gems are rare and worth 25 gems.
  • Boris mentions that Dry Canyon rewards good gliders.
  • Maximos is reached from a ledge found after Boris by performing a difficult glide to the left.
