I have decided to write a guide for this game because I played it when I was in lower school and had been trying to track it down for years, not remembering the name. I managed to find the name of the game during the writing of my second guide. This made me very excited about being able to obtain and finally play this game after so long. After playing it for a while and just finishing my second guide, I decided to add this to my list of guides to write for, before becoming too busy to do much guide writing. The only problem was that GameFAQs did not have a section for this game, so was set on one side while I started other guides. I then noticed that the Acorn Archimedes was added to GameFAQs and decided to start this guide dispite being too busy to complete it for a while. I really enjoyed this game both now and when I was younger and I do hope you enjoy it half as much as I have. =============================================================================== Contents =============================================================================== To find a section quickly, press "Ctrl"+"F" and copy the string of text in the square brackets. 01) Game Basics ..................................

[BH06] =============================================================================== 01) Game Basics [BH01] =============================================================================== This section will explain the Controls, Menu Options, Items and Enemies for this game. It will also go into a bit more detail on the Address menu option, as this is basically the same as a password option seen in other games. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01A) Controls [BH01A] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Z - Moves Clockwise X - Moves Anti-clockwise Shift - Jump (while standing upright without being near or holding an object) Shift - Pick up object/Drop object K - Kills yourself Q - Sound Off S - Sound On Esc - Ends Game Copy - Pause Game Delete - Resume Game ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01B) Menu Options [BH01B] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Space - Start a game A - Address (explain in section BH01C) D - Shows a demo of the game E - Returns to desktop, ending the game H - Shows the current High Scores I - Shows the story, controls and explains the abilities of your character ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01C) Addresses [BH01C] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The reason why I decided to include the Addresses Menu Option in a different header is because this is used as passwords when you complete enough levels. If you enter an invalid Address, the game will start from the beginning. As a way to help you out, I have listed the Addresses here with a shortcut to the section that explains how to beat that certain address. ,-------------------,--------------,------------------, | | Level | Shortcut to | | Address |-------,------| | | | Start | End | Guide Section | |-------------------+-------+------+------------------| | 98 Acorn Avenue | 1 | 4 | BH02A | |-------------------+-------+------+------------------| | 23 Castle Road | 5 | 8 | BH02B | |-------------------+-------+------+------------------| | 42 Ford Street | 9 | 16 | BH02C | |-------------------+-------+------+------------------| | 14 Brumley Estate | 17 | 24 | BH02D | |-------------------+-------+------+------------------| | 31 Brumley Estate | 25 | 32 | BH02E | '-------------------'-------'------'------------------' Note: You do not need to worry about Capital letters. I have only included them because I think it makes it easier to read. Note: You can not erase anything you type in this section. Once you have hit any key, it can not be undone and the mistake will make you play the game from the beginning. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01D) Items [BH01D] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All items that will be mentioned here are used as weapons. Some weapons will be used against ariel and ceiling insects, while others will be used against ground insects. Some items are breakable and some are not. A few items move along the ground, while most are stationary after landing. This section will provide information about which items do what and how to use them. Falling Items ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ These items are the most common found in the game. This is mainly because the most common enemies can, and will most likely, be killed throughout this game with these item. Ants, Bees, Large Beetles and Slugs can be killed with these items. Breakable Falling Items ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ While these items can be used to kill the same types of enemies that the normal Falling Items can, these can only be used once. Thankfully, when you have to use these items, the enemies have little (if any) room for error, unless you just do something stupid (and I can not help you there). Generally, if it looks like it can break, it probably will. The first time you use these items is at the third stage in the first address. Floating Items ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Unlike the previous two items, these items will be more equipped to deal with enemies that travel along the walls. These items are just Balloons. The types of enemies that can be killed with this item are Spiders, Bees and Slugs. The first time you use these items is at the first stage of the second address. Moving Items ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ These items move across the ground once dropped. Mainly seen as toy cars, this item can defeat several enemies at one time. I have only seen them move to the left of the screen, so that may be a consideration that you should take into account before using it. Once they have been dropped, they will move until it hits a wall or another object that the Bug Hunter climbs vertically. Ants, Bees, Large Beetles and Slugs can be killed with these items. The first time you use these items is on the second stage of the third address. Breakable Floating Items ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ While these items can be used to kill the same types of enemies that the normal Falling Items can, these can only be used once. These items are just bubbles. The first time you use this item is on the fourth stage of the fourth address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01E) Enemies [BH01E] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this game, any touch of any enemy will kill you instantly. Apart from that factor, they are completely different. Ants ¯¯¯¯ First enemy to been seen in the game. They travel along the ground or surfaces and move in both directions until they cannot travel any further, either because they will fall off the platform they are in or it walked into an object. First seen in the first stage of the first address. Spiders ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Like the Ants, they will move in both directions, only changing direction if they will either walk into a wall or reach the end of the platform they are on. The difference between these enemies and the Ants is that they will walk upside-down instead of upright. First seen in the first stage of the second address. Bees ¯¯¯¯ The first "smart" enemy in the game. By "smart", I mean it will react to where the player is on the screen. Bees will fly around, trying to fly in to you. You can hide behind stationary objects to hide from them, but you have to kill them like everything else. Either drop an item on them or use a floating item to kill them just as easily. First seen in the third stage of the second address. Large Beetles ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The second "smart" enemy in the game. If you are on the same level as these enemies, they will move towards you. If you are on another level above or in front of where these enemies are, they will stay as far to the side they are as they possibly can. If you are on another level behind these enemies, they will head as far to the other side as they can. First seen in the third stage of the third address. Slugs ¯¯¯¯¯ Slugs can move on the ceiling, on the floor and on the walls (but, not at the same time). This makes them harder to make mistakes with. One mistake could be the difference between victory and defeat. If they can not go further in the direction they were going, they will turn back. First seen in the first stage of the fourth address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 01F) Story [BH01F] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Taken from the game itself: "Genus 'Hysteron Proteron' was originally intended by the bio-engineers to be an incredibly intelligent and loyal super-solider capable of wiping out entire armies with its extensive array of chemical weapons. Unfortunately the DNA got a bit mixed up, and instead of an eight foot killing machine, they got a six inch bipedal invertebrate with a stupidly large mouth and an irrational dislike for insects. Rather than throw the multi-million pound freak onto the genetic scrap heap they gave it a chance to show its value - as an insect exterminator. Thus you (as Hysteron Proteron) must prove your worthiness by killing the insects at the locations you are summoned to." =============================================================================== 02) Walkthrough [BH02] =============================================================================== This section is to help you through all the levels in the game. Before I get in to the different levels, I want to go over the basics that will be mentioned in this section so you understand what each bit means. The "Items" section of each level will explain what you can pick up and what type of item it is. The "Enemies" section will list the insects in the level. The bulk of each level will be an explaination on how to beat the level. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02A) 98 Acorn Avenue [BH02A] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first Address that you visit. I personnally find these levels a bit of a joke and would be surprised if anyone is stuck on them. The only reason I have added a section for them is for completion purposes. O-------------O O------------O | The Hallway | | [BH02A.01] | O-------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Orange - Falling Item Ant Walk to the left of the screen, climbing the table. When you reach the Orange, pick it up and continue on your way. When you get half way down the other side of the table, wait until the Ant has almost reached the table leg, then drop the orange on it. You can easily pick the Orange up again if the dropped Orange does not and try again. Once done, head for the Mouse Hole, which will be your destination everytime you kill every Insect in the level. O-------------O O------------O | The Kitchen | | [BH02A.02] | O-------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Milk Bottle - Falling Item Ant x2 Walk to the right and go up the table until you are underneath the Milk Bottle. Wait until the Ant has come as close as possible to you, then run to the Milk Bottle and pick it up. Walk to the left until you are hanging on the left side and wait for the Ant to get in range. When it is in range, kill the Ant. walk down until you are upside-down and you should be able to pick up the Milk Bottle. If not, jump to the platform where the dead Ant is and move the Milk Bottle to the edge of the platform and jump off. You should now be able to retrieve the Milk Bottle and gain useful practise for an upcoming level. Walk to the right until you are at a safe distance from the floor on the other side of the table leg. Wait until the Ant gets in range and drop the Milk Bottle on it. It can easily be retrieved if you miss, so you should have no worries against this Ant. When it is killed, head to the exit. O------------O O------------O | The Stairs | | [BH02A.03] | O------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Plant Pot - Breakable Falling Item Ant Walk up the right wall and across the ceiling to the light shade. Walk down the light shade until you are standing up on the blue part of the light shade, facing the right wall. Jump to the right and you should hopefully land on the windowceil that has the Plant Pot on it. Grab the Plant Pot and walk to the left until you are facing down at the Ant. Drop the Plant Pot on the Ant and then walk back on top of the platform you are on until you are standing upright. Head as far left as possible and jump off, then head to the exit. O-------------O O------------O | The Bedroom | | [BH02A.04] | O-------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Ball - Falling Item Ant x2 You start at the top-right corner. Jump across the lights to the Ball at the top-left corner and pick it up. Walk a little way down the wall and drop the Ball on the Ant from a safe distance. If you mess this up, it will be hard to retry it without dying. Once the Ant is dead, move to the right and climb on the bed, making sure you are not on the patterned area. With the Ball in hand, wait until the Ant turns around and walks to the right, then follow it until you get a little over half- way in the patterned area. Walk to the left a bit, turn around and jump over the Ant when it is close enough that jumping over it will not kill you. This is important to master as you may need to do this later on in the game. After jumping over the Ant, grab the Ball and make your way up the right wall. Wait for the Ant to come close and drop the Ball on it. Once you kill the Ant, head your way to the exit to finish the first Address. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02B) 23 Castle Road [BH02B] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the last address that only has four levels. It also introduces a couple more enemies and a new type of weapon. This is also the final address that is a house and not something else. O---------------O O------------O | The Enterance | | [BH02B.05] | O---------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Spider This is just as easy as the first level of the first house. Walk to the left and grab the balloon. Walk up the wall until you are as close as you can get without being touched by the spider and wait for it to come in range, then release the balloon. You can easily retrieve it if you miss. Once done, head to the exit. O-----------------O O------------O | The Living Room | | [BH02B.06] | O-----------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Ant Vase - Breakable Falling Item Spider Walk to the right until you are on top of the red chair, then face left, making sure you are still standing upright. Jump to the window ledge where the Vase is and pick it up. Head to the furthest point to the right that you can get on the ledge before you are hanging on the edge and drop the Vase. If this is done properly, the right half of the Vase should be hanging off the edge. Head to the left side of the ledge and jump off. Head to the right and pick up the Vase when you get to it. When you get to the floor on the right side of the chair, let go of the Vase and pick up the Balloon instead. Wait at the bottom-right corner for the Spider to be level with the right edge of the back part of the chair to release the Balloon. If done correctly, you should watch as the Balloon heads to the top and kills the Spider. Now comes the worst bit, killing the Ant. You have one shot at this, even if the Vase was not breakable. Pick up the Vase and head to the ceiling. You need to be in the centre of the TV before dropping the Vase. Even then, it is up to luck for it to kill the Ant, but at least we give it a better chance than being near the edge of the TV. If you failed to kill the Ant, kill yourself as you have no chance of completing this level. If the Ant has been killed head for the exit. O-------------O O------------O | The Kitchen | | [BH02B.07] | O-------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Cup - Flalling Item Bee Walk to the left and pick up the Cup. Continue walking to the left until you get to the wall. Wait until the Bee is at the draining plates, then walk up the wall and drop the Cup when the Bee is underneath you. If you do not think the Bee will be underneath you before it reaches you, you can move so you are above the Bee and drop the Mug. Head to the exit to complete the level. O--------------O O------------O | The Bathroom | | [BH02B.08] | O--------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Spider Toilet Roll - Falling Item Bee Walk up the wall to your right and walk to the top-left corner. Wait until the Bee gets to the bottle above the medicine cabinet, then rush down and get the Balloon. Continue walking to the floor and once you have cleared the back part of the toilet, release the Balloon, killing the Bee. Head beack to the ceiling to collect the Balloon, then head back to the floor. Walk under the medicine cabinet and stop at the first black line on the wall that touches the medicine cabinet in a straight, vertical line. Wait for the Spider to be directly above you, then release the Balloon, killing it. If you miss it, head back to your starting position and jump across to the red light shade, then jump across to the medicine cabinet. Pick up the Toilet Roll and drop it over the edge, so it does not get in our way. Walk down the left side of the medicine cabinet and wait for the Spider to reach as far left as it can go. Once it reaches the left, you should make your move to retreave the Balloon and head back to the top of the medicine cabinet. Release the Balloon and jump off the medicine cabinet. Retrieve the Balloon and try again. When the Spider is finally killed, along with the already killed Bee, head for the exit, like in every other level. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02C) 42 Ford Street [BH02C] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome back to school. The first level that requires you to play more than 4 stages. Thankfully, a bit of brain-power will make this stage easy. I would like this level a bit more if they included changes to the background colour in different areas, but I think that about most schools. O------------O O------------O | The School | | [BH02C.09] | O------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Ant x2 Baseball - Falling Item Spider Walk forward and jump over the Ant. Trying to climb the door behind you will result in loosing a life. Head on top of the table and face towards the cork board. You want to jump on to the side of this cork board and head to the top. Wait for the Ant to be heading to the other side from where you are and the Spider is out of harm's way, then climb on the top part of the cork board, face left and jump on to the light. Move so that you are upside-down under the light to avoid the Spider. When the Spider is out of your way, quickly move across the ceiling and grab the balloon, then head back to the light. Instead of heading underneath the light, stand on the right side of it and wait. When the Spider comes in to range, let go of the Balloon to kill it. If you miss somehow, you can easily retrieve the Balloon again. When you kill the Spider, grab the Balloon and start heading towards the Baseball in the top-left corner. Half way across the light, let go of the Balloon to get it out of your way and finish heading towards the Baseball and pick it up. Head towards the Ant on top of the cork board, while staying on the ceiling. This Ant is a problem, as you need to kill it first time or you have to restart the level. Make sure that you are near the end of the cork board and drop it when the Ant is near you. Hopefully, you should have killed the Ant, so head to the light and stop when you are standing upright. Jump to the cork board and pick up the Baseball, then head down the left side. When you get to the bottom, stop and wait for the last Ant to get near you. Drop the Baseball on it when it is diaginal to your position and it should kill the last Ant in this level. If not, we still need to head to the top of the cork board and jump off it and land on the brown table. If you did not kill the Ant, get the Baseball and try again, only this time you will be trying from the brown table. When you kill the final Ant, head to the exit. O--------------O O------------O | The Corridor | | [BH02C.10] | O--------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Toy Car - Moving Item Ant x3 From the bottom-right corner, head up the green door and wait for an Ant to reach your side. It will turn around and walk the other way, which you will use to get on top of the green door, face to the right and jump on to the light before the Ant returns and kills you. Walk across the ceiling and down the wall to get the Toy Car, being careful of the Ants down here. Walk back to the ceiling area above the furthest right-most point of the ceiling above the door and drop the Toy Car. Head to the exit while the Toy Car runs over the Ants. O--------------------O O------------O | The Geography Room | | [BH02C.11] | O--------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Pencil Holder - Falling Item Ant Toy Car - Moving Item Large Beetle Head to the left and pick up the Pencil Holder. Walk back to the start and climb the right wall to reach the lighting above the Ant. Make sure you are level with the right side of the desk the Ant is walking on. Wait until the Ant is on the left side of the desk, then drop the Pencil Holder, killing the Ant. If you miss, you can easily retrieve the Pencil Holder and try again. Once you have killed the Ant, walk to the left side of the lighting and stop when you are standing upright. Face to the left and jump off the lighting, aiming to land on the Toy Car. Pick up the Toy Car and head to the right until you are hanging off the side, then drop the Toy Car. As you can see, if you attempted to kill the Large Beetle first, you would now be unable to kill the Ant and that would mean you would have to restart the level. Anyway, head to the exit. O-----------------------O O------------O | The Geography Room II | | [BH02C.12] | O-----------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Baseball - Falling Item Ant x3 Jump on to the notice board and walk up to the top-left corner of the board. Jump to the lighting and head to the other side to pick up the Baseball. Once you have obtained the Baseball, head to the right and drop the Baseball when you are over the notice board. Head back to the light and jump to the notice board, then pick up the Baseball. Walk down the left side of the notice board and wait for the Ant to be in range before dropping the Baseball on it. Walk back to the top-left corner of the notice board and jump down to the desk where the Ant we just killed was on. Pick up the Baseball and walk down the desk you are on until you are close to the floor, but a safe distance away from being killed by the Ant down here. When in range, drop the Baseball on to the Ant. Retrieve the Baseball and place it on the desk underneath the notice board. Jump on to the notice board and retrieve the Baseball from under the notice board you are on. Head to the top and drop the Baseball on the grey sign above the notice board, then jump on to the light. Collect the Baseball and head to the left until you get above the pen on the desk that the last, alive Ant is running around on. Drop the Baseball when it is at the other side of the desk to kill it, then head for the exit. O------------------------O O------------O | The Geography Room III | | [BH02C.13] | O------------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Spider Toy Car - Moving Item Bee Large Beetle Walk to the left, climbing on to the the top of the first desk, then jump across the gap and land on the second desk. Grab the Balloon under this desk and head to the top of the door. When the Bee has reached the top of the door, head back down to the second desk and wait for the Bee to get over the door. Release the Balloon to kill the Bee and hopefully the Spider, too. Head to the top-left corner of the door and jump to the wall, making sure that the Spider is not in the way if you did not manage to kill it. If you did not kill the Spider, read the paragraph 1. If you managed to kill the Spider, read paragraph 2. 1) Wait until the Spider is heading to the right, then walk along the ceiling to grab the Balloon, being careful not to walk in to the Spider. Head to the top-left corner and head down the wall to a safe distance and wait for the Spider to be in range. Once in range, let go of the Balloon to kill the Spider. Read paragraph 2 on how to kill the Large Beetle. 2) Head to the bottom-left corner to collect the Toy Car, then head to the top-right corner. Wait until the Large Beetle has moved to the other side of his contained area, then move soe you are underneath the light and drop the Toy Car. Once the Large Beetle is dead, head for the exit. O---------------O O------------O | The Storeroom | | [BH02C.14] | O---------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Pencil Holder - Falling Item Ant x2 Toy Car - Moving Item Large Beetle Move the Pencil Holder so the right half of it is over the edge of the ledge (LOL, unintended rhyming) you are on. Move back a bit and jump to the ledge to the right of your current postition. Hanging off the left side of the ledge you should be on, grab the Pencil Holder and drop it on the ledge below the one you are on. Jump to the right and grab the Toy Car. Walk up the right wall and keep on walking until you are hanging off the left side of the light, then drop the Toy Car, killing the Ant on the left. Walk up the light until you are standing upright, then jump off the light on to the ledge that the Pencil Holder should now be on. Grab the Pencil Holder and keeping walking clockwise, dropping the Pencil Holder when you are upside-down and under the pen on the ledge you are under. This should kill the Large Beetle. Jump off to the right side, then turn to the left and jump to the floor. Grab the Pencil Holder and walk to the right until you are hanging off the edge of the ledge that the remaining Ant is on. Wait until the Ant as just reached the end you are hanging off, then quickly place the Pencil Holder where the blue stack of books are and get back to where you were. From here, you should head back to the start, then get to where the Toy Car was placed before you moved it (on the ledge above the last Ant). Hang off the left side of this ledge and wait for the Ant to be near the exit. Quickly grab the Pencil Holder and move back to hanging of the edge. When the Ant is in range, drop the Pencil Holder to kill the Ant, then head for the exit. O-------------------O O------------O | The Main Corridor | | [BH02C.15] | O-------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Ant x2 Book - Falling Item Spider First thing to do is to grab the Balloon under the desk you start on, then get back to the top of the desk and release the Balloon. If you forget to do this before you jump off this desk, you have to restart. After getting the Balloon to the ceiling, jump off the desk and head up the door. Hang off the right side of the door and wait. When the Spider is heading to the left and is half way across the door, head to the top, turn to the left, jump across to the light and head underneath the light before the Spider can return and kill you. Grab the Balloon, then hang off the left edge of the light and wait for the Spider. When the Spider is in range, release the Balloon to kill it. Grab the Balloon and head to the right. Once you are past the light, release the Balloon to get it out of your way, then head to the left. Walk down the wall until you are as close to the bottom as possible without getting hit by the Ant. When the Ant starts moving to the right, follow it half way across the area it is running around in, jump over it and run up the door. Head to the top and face to the left. Try to jump through the gap between the door and the light, then try to land on the shelf. You will probably have to do this several times before you succeed. Once you have landed on the shelf, pick up the Book and balance over the right side. Wait for the Ant to reach the Exit, then drop the book, killing it. Jump off the shelf and retrieve the Book, then head to the top of the door. Balance to Book on the left side, so half of the Book is hanging off the edge, then jump on the right light. Head to the left to retrieve Book and head to the right until you are under the right light. Once the remaining Ant gets to the right side of the screen, drop the Book. You can easily retrieve the Book if you miss and try again. Once you succeed, head for the exit.

If you managed to get past the Ant, walk all the way to the other seat, jumping on to the right as soon as you are standing up on the left side of the screen. Grab the Brown Bottle that you should be able to grab and drop it on the Ant on the left chair. Walk to the top of the platform you are on and jump off at the left side. Walk down to the floor, being careful to stay out of the Ant's reach that is on the floor. When the Ant has started heading to the right, quickly grab the Toy Car from the middle of the floor and head back up the left chair. Head to the top right corner and drop the Toy Car, then head for the exit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 02D) 14 Brumley Estate [BH02D] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Honestly, this level just jumps up the difficulty more than you would expect, especially since most of the other levels have been pretty simple. Unlike the first three addresses, this address will hide Items and have the same enemies with different speeds. It also proves a bit more challenging trying to figure out how to kill these enemies while giving yourself room to survive if you fail killing the enemy. O-------------O O------------O | The Factory | | [BH02D.17] | O-------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Gear - Falling Item Slug x2 Wait a minute, I see no gear around here. Well, that's because it is hidden. Anyway, I hope you jumped over that Slug while you were trying to find flaws with my guide. After jumping over the Slug, climb up the gate on the left and turn to the right, facing a "CLOCK ON --->" sign. Wait until the Slug has just started moving under the sign, then jump on it. Walk anti-clockwise until you are standing upright, then turn to the right and jump on the clock. Position yourself above the handle on the right side of the clock and wait for the Slug to be on the floor, slightly to the right of the handle. Walk down the clock and you should have pushed the handle down to release the Gear, hopefully killing on the Slug. If it did not kill the Slug, read paragraph 1. If it did the Slug, read paragraph 2. 1) If it did not kill the Slug, wait until the Slug is heading back up the door on the right before jumping to the ground. Retrieve the Gear and walk as far up the gate while hanging off the edge. Wait until the Slug is underneath the "O" in "CLOCK" and drop the Gear. If you killed the Slug, read paragraph 2. If you missed, continue reading. If you miss, head up the gate and walk to about a third of the way to the left, then turn around and jump over the Slug. Walk back to the floor and a bit of the way to the right, then turn around and jump over the Slug again. Grab the Gear, head to the top and try again. After the Slug is killed, read paragraph 2. 2) After the Slug has been killed, retrieve the Gear and walk up to the ceiling. Align your character over the sign, above the "C" on the left. Wait until the Slug on this sign has reached the "C" on the right before dropping the Gear. If you managed to kill the Slug, head for the exit. If you missed, continue reading If you did not kill the Slug, head to the gate and get in the postition to jump on to the sign. Wait for the Slug to start moving under the sign, then jump on to the sign. Walk anti-clockwise and grab the Gear when you get to it. Drop the Gear on the floor then keep moving anti-clockwise until you are standing up on the right side of the sign. Turn around and jump off the sign, then retrieve the sign and try again. O---------------O O------------O | The Workfloor | | [BH02D.18] | O---------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Ant Package - Falling Item Spider x2 Start this level by walking to the right and hanging off the side, waiting for the Ant to pass you, heading to the right of the screen. Once it has passed you, quickly walk underneath the platform you are on to reach the other side. When you get to the other side, jump on the white block that is floating in the middle of this half of the screen, then turn around and jump on the brown block to the left. Grab the Balloon and let it float to the ceiling, then jump off, on to the left wall. Retrieve the Balloon and walk to the bottom of the level, being careful not to get hit by the Ant walking down here. Position the Balloon so half of it is not blocked by the wall, then walk up the wall and get to the other side. When you are standing up, jump off this platform and on to where you started. Do the same thing as before to get to the other side, but remember to grab the Balloon this time. Once you have the Balloon and are on the left side of the screen, standing on the ledge that is used to get to both sides, walk to the right until you are as close to the Spiders as possible without being killed. Release the Balloon when one of them gets in range, then retrieve the Balloon and do the same for the other Spider. If you did not kill one of the Spiders the first time you release the Balloon, you will have to start again. Once both Spiders are dead, retrieve the Balloon again and move it out of your way for later, then grab the Package. Head for either side and hang off the edge, waiting for the Ant to get in range. Once in range, drop the Package, hopefully killing it. Once the Ant it dead, head to the left side of the platform you are on. Face the white block that you had to jump on before to obtain the Balloon, then jump on to the platform above the white block you are currently on. Head to the exit and get ready for the difficulty to change. O-------------------O O------------O | The Main Conveyor | | [BH02D.19] | O-------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Balloon - Floating Item Slug x3 Bolt - Falling Item Head down to the ledge below the one you start on, then jump to your left before you have a chance to look around this level. Now that you are safe, I will point out that ONLY one of those exits actually work. As that information is not really required at the moment, I suggest that you jump across the other platforms to get to the Balloon. You have to be careful with releasing this Balloon, due to it costing a life if you do not kill a Slug or if it hits the ceiling in the wrong place. Again, you have to make sure the right side of the Balloon is over the edge so you can retrieve it. Walk to the top of the platform, turn to the right and jump across to the next platform. Retrieve the Balloon and position the Balloon the same way as before, being careful of the Slug that may kill you. Once the Balloon is in position, head to the top of the platform and face to the right. When the Slug on the top part of it's platform, heading to the right, jump on to it's platform and retrieve the Balloon. Head down the left side of the platform and wait underneath the top part of the platform so there is enough space to fit another Bug Hunter between the top part of the platform and your character. Wait until the Slug is on the left side of the top platform before releasing the Balloon. When the Slug is underneath the top patform, it should be hit by the Balloon. If it missed, you are either too far away or too close, but will be dead either way. Remember that trick, as you will have to use it on the next Slug we will kill. Using the same method as before, move the Balloon to the platform on the left to the platform the Slug was on. Being careful of the next Slug, position the Balloon the same way as you did to move it from the other platforms, then head to the top part of the platform and face right. When the Slug has just past the Balloon, heading to the top, jump across and grab the Balloon. Head below the bottom ledge and preform the same trick again to kill this Slug. Once dead, position the Balloon so you can move it back to the previous platform you were on. When you are back on the previous platform, retrieve the Balloon and position yourself as far to the right as possible without having any of your character's feet over the edge. When the Slug gets to the bottom of the right power generator (the thing with lightning coming out of it), release the Balloon. It should hit the Slug, but if it does not, you should be able to jump to the right wall and retrieve the Balloon and attempt it again. Once you have killed all the Slugs, jump through the gap between the platform with the Bolt on it and the platform with the Slug on it as this is the exit that works. O-------------------O O------------O | The Heat Exchange | | [BH02D.20] | O-------------------O O------------O Items Enemies ¯¯¯¯¯ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Bolt - Falling Item Slug x3 Bubble - Breakable Floating Item You have probably looked to the right of your character's starting postition and noticed a very fast Slug that you are required to kill and are completely scared. Now, the worse part is that one is the easiest one to kill. The Slug to your character's left makes it difficult to retrieve the Bolt and the Slug above that has a weapon that can only be used once. Wait until the fast Slug as just past you, then quickly jump on to the platform that the fast Slug is on. Quickly run to the top of the platform and to the right side until you have an opening above you. Turn to the left and jump on the above ledge and move out of this Slug's way. Hopefully, you should be above the platform with the fast Slug on. When the Slug has just past your postition, head to the left and keep moving until you can stand upright (being careful of another Slug). If you can not stand upright, you are on the wrong platform and will have to start again. Once you
are standing upright, head to the furthest point to the left while you are
still standing upright, then wait for the Slug.

When the Slug as just started travelling on the top of the platform, jump on it
and follow the Slug, collecting the Bolt along the way.  When you get back to
where you jumped on to the platform, drop the Bolt in the normal manner and get
ready to jump back to platform you were on beforehand.

When the Slug comes near you, jump on to the platform.  Grab the Bolt and head
to the furthest point to the right that you can on this platform, avoiding the
fast Slug.  If you are on the correct platform, you should be above the
platform that the fast Slug is on, in a small gap that will prevent the Slug
from hitting you.  Drop the Bolt on the Slug when it is about two character
spaces away from where the Bolt will fall.

If you made a mistake here, it is alright as you can recover.  Anyway, after
killing the fast Slug, head to the left and keep moving until you can stand
upright (being careful of another Slug).  Now, walk to the left until you are
hanging off the edge, making sure that the next step in the opposite direction
will make you stand upright again.  When the lower Slug is hanging off the left
side, drop the Bolt.

If the Slug is still alive, restart.  If the Slug is dead, wait until the
remaining Slug has just started travelling across the top of the platform, then
jump on it and head to the left side.  Jump off this platform, landing on a
small platform to the left of the screen.  Jump the the platform on your right
and grab the Bubble.

Stand upright on the right side on this platform and wait until the Slug is on
the top of the platform at the very left side before releasing the Bubble.
If the Bubble missed, restart.  If it hit, head for the exit.  I think that, at
this point in the game, I do not need to tell you each platform you have to
jump on to get to the exit.

Balloon - Floating Item                      Bee x2
Bubble - Breakable Floating Item             Slug

Straight off the bat, you have no time to rest as you have to jump to the
orange ledge to the right and below the platform you are on.  Head as far to
the right as possible, while standing upright and wait for the left Bee to get
to get near to the right side of the platform you started on before jumping to
the platform the Balloon is on.

Grab the Balloon and head as far left as possible without touching a Bee or
hanging off the left side of this platform.  Release the Balloon to hopefully
kill both Bees and for the Balloon to rest underneath the platform above you.
If one of the Bees touch you before dying OR the Balloon does not rest
underneath the above platform, you will have to restart the level.

If, like me, you kept getting killed by the Bees, you can now start cheering as
the hard part of the level is over.  You have to head to the top left corner
which should be easy enough without explaining.  Once you have arrived to the
top left corner, head as far to the right as possible without hanging off the
edge and wait for the Slug.

You should have noticed that this Slug is going at the same speed as the fast
Slug in the last round.  This means that when you jump on to it's platform, you
will have to jump over it a couple of times to reach the other side.  When the
Slug has just started travelling underneath the platform, jump on to it and
head for the right side.  When you reach the right side, jump off this platform
and hopefully land on the platform with the Balloon underneath it.

Position the Balloon so that you can move it to the platform to the left, then
jump across to the left platform.  Grab the Balloon and, while travelling under
the platform, hhead to the left side, hanging off the side.  Wait for the Slug
to get in to range and release the Balloon.  Thankfully, you can retrieve the
Balloon if you fail to kill it.

Once the Slug it dead, jump on to the platform that it was travelling on and
head to the left side.  Jump off the platform and hopefully through the hole
between the platform to the far left and the platform underneath the one you
were on.  Keep trying to jump through this hole, then try to land on the bottom
left platform.  Jump on to the Brown crate, then jump to the exit.

Package - Falling Item                       Slug x4

First of all, look at the level and take a deep breath.  Dispite what it looks
like, it is quite easy once you get past the fast Slug near your starting point
and on a different level.  The first bit is just an eye trick.

When the fast Slug near your starting position is travelling underneath the
crate, run to the right until you are under the second crate.  Now, walk out in
to the gap between the two crates and face right.  If you are in the correct
postition, the Slug should not kill you and you can jump on to the right crate.

When the Slug is heading up the right side of the left crate, jump on to the
right crate, the head for the gap between the two crates above you and jump on
to the right crate.  Do the same for the next level of crates, then walk to the
right side and get ready to jump to the crate on the right.

When the Slug on the right crate starts heading down the left side, quickly
jump on to the crate and jump off the right side, landing on the Package.
Pick up the Package and place it under the crate to your left, then jump on the
crate.  Grab the Package and place it on the top part of the crate you are on,
under the crate above you.

Jump on the crate that has the Package underneath it and grabe the Package.
Walk up the left side and drop the Package.  Continue to the top, being careful
of the Slug, and head as far to the right as possible without hanging off the
edge and make sure you are facing left.

When the Slug starts climbing up the right side of the crate, jump on the crate
and head to the top left corner.  Jump to the crate on the left and wait for
the Slug to start travelling underneath the crate.  Jump down the gap and grab
the Package.

Head to the left side of the crate, being careful of the Slug, and hang off the
edge near the bottom.  Wait until the Slug is at the top half of the crate,
hanging off the right edge before droppping the Package.  This should have
killed the Slug, but if it was not effective, retrieve the Package and have
another go.

Once you have killed the first of four Slugs, head to the top of the crate you
are on, being careful of the Slug) and jump to the crate above you to the left.
You may be wondering why we do not kill this annoying Slug yet, and the simple
answer is that we can not kill it and complete the game until the other Slugs
have been killed first.

Anyway, once you are on the crate that is on the top row and second from the
left, jump down the left gap and retrieve the Package.  Walk to the left side
of the crate you should now be on and drop it in between the left gap, landing
on another crate.  Head to the top of the crate you are on and jump on to the
left crate, then jump down the left gap on this crate.

Once again, retrieve the Package, but this time you have to be careful of the
Slugs and head to the top of the crate you are on.  Drop the Package when you
are underneath the crate directly above the right side of the carte you are on,
then jump on to the right crate above you.

Grab the Package and hang off the left side, then drop it.  Head to the top and
jump to the left crate.  Retrieve the Package and head to the left side of the
crate, avoiding the Slug.  Hang off the left side as low as possible and drop
the package when the Slug is at the bottom half of the crate, hanging off the
left side.  If you missed the Slug, retrieve the Package and try again.

Once the second of four Slugs has been killed, jump on to the crate that the
last, dead Slug was on and grab the Package.  Hang off the right side of the
crate and get as close to the bottom as possible, then wait for the Slug.
When the Slug reaches the top half of the crate, hanging off the right side,
drop the Package.  If you miss, retrieve the Package and try again.

Once that Slug is dead, we have to deal with the one near the exit.  Move the
Package to the crate that is the second from the right side of the screen in
the middle row.  I am not going to explain how to move it there, as you should
be able to figure it out by now.  Also, be careful of the Slug near the end of
moving the Package to the destination.

Once the Package is on the specified crate, make sure you are on the top level
crate next to the crate with the last Slug on it.  When the Slug has started
heading down the left side of the crate, jump on to it.  Walk anti-clockwise,
picking up the Package along the way.

When you get to the exit, drop the Package and jump on to the brick ledge above
you.  Wait for the Slug to head down the left side of the crate, then retrieve
the Package and move so you are hanging off the right side.  When the Slug
reaches the top half of the crate, hanging off the right side, drop the Package
to kill it.  If you miss, retrieve and try again.  When that Slug is dead, head
for the exit (which is the only thing you can really do now).

                                             Slug

Notice the broken parts of some crates in this level.  These are not solid, so
you can jump through them or climb in the area where they would normally be.
Anyway, jump across two crates and wait for the Ant at the bottom to pass the
gap to the right of the crate you are on before jumping down to the bottom.

Walk to the right and jump up the next gap you come to, landing on the crates
to the right of this gap.  Head to the right and jump across the last gap to
land on the crate with the Package on it.  Grab the Package and hang off the
left side of the crate, as close to the ground as possible.

Wait until the Ant is underneath the crates to your left before dropping the
Package.  If you miss, jump down to the gound and position the Package so you
can grab it from the crates that are second from the right and jump on these
crates.  You should have a better chance to kill the Ant from these crates.

When the Ant is dead, jump to the bottom and grab the Package.  Drop the
Package underneath the crates second from the left, then jump on these crates.
Retrieve the Package and place it on the right side of the crate you are on,
then jump on the above crate, retrieve and do the same thing again.

When you are on the top crate, place the Package so it is hanging off the left
side, then jump to the left crate and retrieve the Package.  Walk down the
crate so you are in the broken part and drop the Package when the Slug is in
range.  I do not know if you can retrieve the Package if you miss.

Once the Slug has been killed, move the Package to the top crate next to the
one you are standing on.  Once you are across have have the Package, place it
as far to the right on the middle crate in this row and head to the top.
Jump down the gap and try to land on the middle crate in the middle row, then
retrieve the Package.  Place the Package as far to theright as possible and
then jump to the ground.

Jump to the same crate that the Package was at the beginning of the level and
turn to your left to jump on to the crate that is above and to the left of the
crate you should currently be on.  Retrieve the Package and place it on the
left side of the crate you are on, underneath a brick platform and then jump on
to this platform.

Pick up the Package and move so you are over the Ant.  Drop the Package when
the Ant is in range, hopefully killing it.  If you miss, you have to start all
over again.  Hopefully, you killed it and can head straight for the exit.

Balloon - Floating Item                      Slug x2

Dispite the name (which is based on the fact that this level has the word
"easy" as the background in green), this level will cause more screaming at the
screen than any other level.  Unlike the other levels, the screams will be
based on your character getting to a position where you can kill a Slug in
time.

Before you do anything in this game, pause.  Yes, you did read that correctly,
pause the game.  The reason is so you can have a good look at the level before
diving in at the deep end.  The Balloon is near the right side of the ceiling
and the Slugs are going anti-clockwise.  That tells us we need to get the
Balloon, then head to the left.

That's fine, but the Slugs are too fast.  This is the reason I told you to
pause the game.  There is a bigger gap between the two Slugs compared with the
gap, which you will have to discover.

Anyway, unpause the game and head to the bottom right corner, jumping over any
Slugs that will catch up with you.  When you are in the bigger gap, run to the
bottom left corner, heading anti-clockwise.  Grab the Balloon along the way and
release it when you start walking down the left wall, release the Balloon,
hopefully killing the pursuing Slug.

I do not have to tell you what would happen if you missed.  However, you should
recollect that Balloon and wait with a gap big enought to fit another Bug
Hunter betwen you and the ceiling.  When the Slug gets in range, like the fast
Slug on The Heat Exchange, release the Balloon, hopefully killing it.

Again, if you missed, you die.  Anyway, head to the floor and jump in the exit.
Before we head to the next address, I would like to say congratulations on
getting through this address.

If you thought the last level was Hell, I would encourage you to stop playing
now.  Although the first level in this address is easy enough, it becomes even
harder than the last address almost instantly.  Thankfully, this is the last

                                             Slug

Walk to the right until you are near the platform with the Large Beetle on, and
jump on to the left side.  Walk underneath the platform until you are standing
upright on the other side, then jump to the right, landing on the lowest
floating platform.  You will end up doing that a couple of times during this
level, so it is a good idea to remember how you do that.

Anyway, grab the Bubble to the right and hang off the left edge.  When the Bee
comes in to range, release the Bubble to kill it.  Jump up to the third highest
floating platform, then jump on to the middle platform.  Walk to the right edge
and wait for the Large Beetle to come across to the right side.

Walk under the platform to get to the left side, standing upright, and jump off
to the left side.  Again, you will probably be doing that a lot as well, so get
used to how you did it.  Grab the Package and place it as far to the right as
possible, then head to the other side, carrying the Package with you.

Drop the Package when you are hanging off the right side of the screen and
quickly jump to the lowest floating block.  Hopefully, you can get the Package
and move it to the second highest floating block without instruction now.

Once you have the Package on the second highest floating block, jump to the
platform above you to the right and grab the Package.  Travel along the ceiling
until you are above a floating platform with a Slug on it and drop the Package
when the Slug is hanging off the left side.  If you miss the Slug, you will
have to start again.

Once the Slug is killed, head to the only part of the platform that you are on
that allows you to stand up.  Jump across the floating platforms until you get
to the one with the Package on, where you will then pick up the Package and
drop it off the right side.  Jump down and get the Package.

Once you have the Package, drop it off the right side, then jump off before the
Large Beetle kills you.  Get back to the ceiling with the Package and drop it
on to the left edge of the floating platform to the right of the one with the
dead Slug on it, then get to the left side of the screen.

Once on the left side, where you started the level from, head to the top of
this platform and jump to the right.  Get the the right edge and jump on to the
platform with the dead Slug on it and repeat to get to your Package.

Notice the Large Beetle is at the right side of it's platform, which will help
us kill it.  Without getting further than half of your body on the top of the
platform, grab the Package and head so you are hanging off the left edge and
drop the Package.  If you went too far, you have to start this over again.

Once the Large Beetle is dead, you have to make your way to the top part of the
platform you started on.  Jump through the gap, then try to aim for the exit.
This may take a few turns.

Bolt - Falling Item                          Ant x2

You will get used to this level quickly, as you will most likely have to repeat
it several times before actually completing it.  This is based mainly on the
first Ant that we will kill, as trying to get past it requires exact timings to
get past.  I should mention that I am not sure of these timings and just guess.

Head to the right of the platform you are on and jump as far to the right as
possible, hopefully landing on the lowest platform touching the right side of
the screen.  Jump to the lowest platform to your left and hang off the right
side.

Wait for the Ant to start walking to the left and grab the Bolt, following the
Ant until you reach the middle of the platform.  Drop the Bolt and head back to
the right, then follow the Ant again, just stopping short of the Bolt.

When possible, jump over the Ant, grab the Bolt and head to the left side,
making sure you are hanging off the edge.  When the Ant starts heading to the
right, drop the Bolt so it is balancing off the edge and head to the right,
jumping over the Ant.  Jump up the Floating platforms on the right to reach the
platform you started on.

Jump to the platform on your left and head down to get the Bolt, then head back
to the top.  To your left, you should notice an Ant walking in a small area.
You are going to attempt to get through it with the Bolt so you can kill this
Ant.  As I mentioned before, this will be tough, even with instructions.

First, run when the Ant is heading to the left and drop the Bolt as close to
the centre as possible, then run back.  Next, run as far to the left without
getting in the range of grabbing the Bolt and jump over the Ant.  Pick up the
Bolt and head to the raised ledge on the left.

If you managed to survive that, drop the Bolt in this area and wait for the Ant
to start heading to the right.  Follow it until about half way to jump over it,
then run to the right raised ledge and jump on to the platform you started on.

Head to the right and jump your way to the top floating platform to your right,
then jump on the platform above the platform you started on.  Head to the left
and jump to the left most platform and grab the Bolt.  Hang off the lighter
box and drop the Bolt when the Ant is in range.  If you miss, you have to do
this again.

Once the Ant is dead, jump through the gap and grab the Bolt.  Place the Bolt
in the same place that you got it from and head to the platform you were on to
retrieve it again.

Once you have the Bolt, drop it on the right edge of the platform and jump over
to the right platform.  Grab the Bolt and repeat the process.  Drop the Bolt on
the platform you started on and head back down there.

Once you are back down here, grab the Bolt and hang off the right side of this
platform, waiting for the Ant underneath.  When the Ant is below you, drop the
Bolt, hopefully killing it.  If you miss, you will have to repeat this entire
process again, which even I do not want to do.

Once you have killed the Ants, head to the platform to the left of the one you
should currently be on and walk clockwise until you come to a place where you
are standing up and and jump to the left without landing on something.  This is
the final bit that can make you hate this level, where you have to jump from
here to the exit.  Thankfully, you should just jump as far to the left as
possible and land in the exit.

Bolt - Falling Item                          Slug x3

Dispite it's looks, this level is quite simple.  Your main problem will be
jumping over the Slugs, but once that has been solved with timings, you should
have little problems.

You should notice that the Slugs run in a line, but it is possible to jump over
them.  To jump over them, make sure you are ready to jump, facing the direction
they are coming at you, and jump at the last second.  This will take a few
attempts, but it is easy once you get the hange off it.

Now, let's get on with the Walkthrough.  Head to the right of the screen,
jumping over the Slugs.  You have to turn around and jump over the Slugs before
climbing the right wall to survive.  As stated, once you jump over the Slugs,
climb the wall and head for the next place your character can jump and wait.

Jump the Slugs when they get in to range, then head for the Bolt.  Pick up the
Bolt and place it on the left side of the ledge above where the Bolt starts.
Walk to the right side and wait for the Slugs to return.

While we are waiting for the Slugs to return, I will point out a useful marker
for the dropping of the Bolt to kill these Slugs.  From hanging off the right
edge, you should notice a vertical line in the top part of the floor.  Count to
three while counting these vertical, top part lines to the right, not including
the line below the exit.  Here is where the Slug should be when you drop the
Bolt.

Now, the Slugs should be near you now, so jump over them and grab the Bolt.
Head to the right until you are hanging off the right side and drop the Bolt at
the marker specified in the previous paragraph.  Head back up and jump off the
platform to the right and repeat the process until the other Slugs are dead,
which should then complete this level as you should already be at the exit.

                                             Slug x2

After the last two levels, this one will make you jump for joy.  Excluding the
killing of the Large Beetle, everything is pretty straight forward that just
requires the right timings.  The only thing to watch out for once you get past
the Ant and first Slug is killing the last Slug, as that is the only bit that
can make you fail this level without actually being killed.

Follow the Ant until you get past the gap in the platform above you, then turn
around and wait for the Slug to move underneath the ledge it is on.  Jump on
the same ledge as the Slug and run to the gap above this platform.  Jump on the
ledge to the left and you should notice a Large Beetle on the ledge to the
right.

Another Slug will be on a ledge with the Bolt on it.  Wait until it has past
the gap, heading anti-clockwise, above and to your left and jump on to the same
platform as the Slug.  Walk anti-clockwise until you are standing upright and
jump over the Slug when you can.

Grab the Bolt and place it closer to the gap on your right, then head back a
bit and face to the right, getting ready to jump over the Slug again.  Grab the
Bolt and drop it through the gap, then jump over to the right platform.

When the Slug has gone through the gap, jump through the gap and land on the
platform below.  Grab the Bolt and head to the right, dropping the Bolt when
you are hanging over the edge to kill the Tartanula.  If you failed, retrieve
the Bolt, head quickly to the left to move the Large Beetle back to the right
and try again.

Once the Large Beetle is dead, head to the platform above your current
postition, so you can head to the right and jump down to retrieve the Bolt.
Walk to the gap on the current pltform and drop the Bolt when the Slug is in
range.  If you miss, retrieve the Bolt and try again.  Jump through the gap
when the Slug is dead and do the same for the Ant, including retrieving the
Bolt if you failed.

Once the Slug and Ant is dead, get the Bolt to the top-right platform.  To do
this, you have to get the Bolt and place it underneath the platform you are
going to climb up (should be the platform to the right, excluding when you want
to get it on the platform above the dead Ant) and jump on to said platform,
then retrieve the Bolt and do it all over again.

Once you have got to the top-right platform, place the Bolt under the platform
area that is close to the platform you are on, then jump on it.  Retrieve the
Bolt and head to the left.  Drop the Bolt when the Slug gets in range.  If you
missed, you have to redo the level again.  If you kill it, head to the exit.

Balloon - Floating Item                      Slug x3

Walk to the left side until you start walking up the wall, then turn to the
right and jump on to the floating platform in the middle.  Walk up the left
side of this platform and continue you way across this platform until you get
to the gap and wait there.

When the Slug on the middle platform has just past your current position and
the Slug on the platform you are on is travelling on the outside, jump down and
run clockwise around this platform, grabbing the Balloon along the way, until
you have the Balloon and are standing upright.  Release the Balloon when the
Slug gets in range to kill the first of three Slugs.

Retrieve the Balloon and wait for the Slug that can kill you to go past your
position on the inside, then walk up the left wall on the outside of the
platform you are on.  Wait until the Slug gets in range, then release the
Balloon, hopefully killing it.

Retrieve the Balloon and place it underneath the right side of the platform the
Slug you just killed was on and jump on to that platform.  Get the Balloon and
Move so you are hanging off the right side in the opening gap of this platform.
When the Slug is above you, release the Balloon, hopefully killing it.
                                                                               
Walk on the inside part of this platform and jump on to the middle platform.
Now that all three Slugs are dead, you can head to the exit.  The only reason
why I told you that bit was because I tried to jump back in and it took longer
than required.

                                             Slug x2

Each paragraph will most likely be a repeated process that you will have to do
several times during this level.  It should not be too hard, just repetitive.

Jump from your starting platform to the bottom-right platform and move so you
are hanging off the bottom.  Walk to the other side and grab the Gear, then
walk back and place the Gear so it is hanging off the left side.  When you get
the chance, jump to the platform that you started on (by being as close to the
Gear as possible before jumping) and retrieve the Gear.

Decide on which Ant you wish to kill first and place the Gear so it is hanging
off the edge of the side with the selected Ant.  Get ready to jump on to the
platform above the Ant with the Slug on it and jump on to it when the Slug has
just past your position.

Grab the Gear, then follow the Slug in the same direction as it is travelling,
dropping the Gear when the Ant is in range.  Continue on your way until you can
jump back to the platform you started on.  If the Ant is dead, do the same for
the other Ant.  If it is alive, attempt to kill it again.

Once both Ants are dead, position the Gear hanging off the right side and jump
on to the platform when the Slug has just gone past your position.  Follow the
Slug until you get to the right side and position the Gear so it is hanging off
the right edge.

Move a bit to the left, then turn around and jump on to the wall and retrieve
the Gear.  Walk to the ceiling and position yourself so that the Gear will drop
down and land on the edge of the platform closest to the wall so you can
retrieve it.  Drop it when the Slug is in range and then retrieve the Gear.
Do this until both Slugs are dead, then head for the exit.

                                             Slug x3

Walk to the right until you have some space above your head, then jump over the
incoming Slug.  When you jump over the Slug, you should wait here until you
have to jump twice to avoid a Slug.  Once you have jumped over the Slugs, walk
to the right until you have reached the middle space between the lazers.

Jump over the Slug coming from the left when it is as close as possible, then
head to the end of the platform and jump over the Slug coming from the right.
Jump down to the platform below and walk to the left.

You want to be as far to the left as possible and have the Spider and Slugs as
far away from your position as possible before jumping to the floating block on
your left.  Repeat this until you get to the the left-most platform.  Grab the
Balloon and kill the Spider and two Slugs on the platform just above you.

After all the insects are killed on the above platform, jump on it and grab the
Balloon.  Walk underneath the platform to the right side and let go off the
Balloon so you can retrieve it from the platform to your right.  Get to a place
where you can jump to the right platform and jump on it.

Now, grab the Balloon and head to the top, but still hang off the left side,
and wait for the Slug to reach the right side of the screen, heading back to
the left, before letting go of the Balloon.  If you fail, retrieve the Balloon
and try again.  If you kill the final Slug, head to the exit.

Package - Falling Item                       Large Beetle x2

This has to be the most annoying level ever created.  First of all, the Package
is next to useless because of how it is designed.  Secondly, you will not
figure this out unless you are trying something insane.  Thirdly, you do not
get any points for the kills.

Grab the Package, head to the floor on the left part of the level and wait for
a red arrow to appear in the middle pillar.  Once it appears, head to where it
is pointing and watch the scene.  Inside the Package was a spaceship, which
will kill the two Large Beetles, then head off the screen.  Once the spaceship
has left the screen, head to the exit.

Yeah, it is that annoyingly simple.  However, if you did not notice the red
arrow or tried some other way to complete the level, you probably will not find
this level easy.  This is what happened to me.

Q)     Can you give me Bug Hunter via E-Mail?
A)     I have received confirmation that Bug Hunter and Bug Hunter in Space are
       Freeware from Ian Richardson.  However, I have decided not to provide
       any links to a link where you can download it.

Q)     Are you going to write a guide for Bug Hunter 2: Bug Hunter in Space?
A)     I already have.  Here is the link:
       http://www.gamefaqs.com/computer/arch/file/957597/56947

Q)     Moon Dash was supplied with this game.  Are you going to write a guide
       for that game as well?
A)     Having now played the game, I am surprised that it was not programmed in
       to Bug Hunter, as I now have a copy of Bug Hunter with Moon Dash and
       another copy without Moon Dash.  Anyway, I have no plans to write for
       Moon Dash at this time.
