Virality – complete walkthrough General Note: Virality is a very difficult game, so try to learn all the commands very well in order to pass through all the difficult level. This walkthrough will be of help. Technical Note: In many PC the game run at very fast FPS so if this happen to you try to decrease the FPS in order to play the game in the correct way. ------------------------------------------------ Level 1-1 – A trouble day In this first level you will learn the mechanics of the game. Jump on the enemies to destroy them and on the platforms paying attention to not fall down in the void. Versus the mid-way of the level you will find the first spikes: don’t touch them! Also you will find a sort of c omputer where to save your progress (checkpoint). Then after other sections with higher platforms the level will end by touching a vortex. Level 1-2 – Into the Jungle Pass through the first snakes and jump the spikes. When you reach an high wall you will learn how to make wall-jumps: simply, continue pressing the Jump button close to the wall. Then you will encounter another section like this and more platform toward the end of the level. Level 1-3 - Vines In the first area of this level you will have to use the vines to make wall-jumps and reach higher platforms – pay attention at the right vines (the smaller ones) and do not confound yourself with the background. After the checkpoint go down (follow the blue arrows in order to not get lost), and jump from left to right following the platforms. When you are at the bottom go on the right and when you reach other vines you need to jump higher by using wall-jump from a vine to the other. Once that you reach the top go right to the end of the level. Level 1-4 – Jungle Race In this level you have to win a “time race” with a rabbit. You have around 2 minutes to finish the level: so go quickly on the right and when you see an hole go down. Then wait for the moving platform to arrive and continue going right and passing other snakes and multiple moving platforms. Toward the end you need to do wall-jumps from a vine to another and by stepping also in the “gap” between the vines – try to do this by keeping calm because it can be very tricky. Then, go right to the end of the level. Level 1-5 – BOSS: Virtual_Snake Use your gun to shoot at the boss and at the same time avoid the bullet that the boss will shoot on you. The best way to do this is to go down and to stay on the top of a vine. Keep shooting at the boss and jump when he shoot at you. After several hits it will explode. Level 2-1 – To the top of the mountains Here you need to go always up in order to reach the top of the mountain. Go up by wall-jumping on the blocks. Pay attention at the round enemies and wait for their paths to be completed first to pass. When you reach the top, after the checkpoint go right and jump other few platforms to reach the end of the level. Level 2-2 – Motorbike sprint In this level you will use the motorbike! It can be very tricky to use, but try to get confident with the commands. Go always right, pass through several holes and obstacles, and in the end acquire velocity to do a big jump to finish the level. Level 2-3 – Giant and small enemies Here you will encounter both giant and small enemies. Pay attention at the small enemies because they are not well visible on the ground. Go right and then down. Jump on the head of the big enemies to destroy them with the right timing. Go up (pay attention at the several small enemies) and after the checkpoint go right. Here you have to use the enemies as a “place to jump” in order to pass through the floor all covered by spikes. Then go down by falling and reach a small labyrinth where you can touch the end of the level. Level 2-4 – Falling rocks Run! A giant enemies is rolling on you! Then fall yourself down and try to land on the correct platform. Go right through the moving platforms and after the checkpoint go up. Jump on the stairs and touch the end of the level. Level 2-5 – BOSS: Virtual_Eagle Jump and stay on one of the upper platforms. Keep shooting at the boss and avoid its eggs. When its HP go down 50 he will start to fly up and down, try to avoid collision with it and its eggs and keep shooting until its destructions. Level 3-1 – Sand and dunes Go right and try to avoid the sand worms when you can, even if you can beat them they sometime can kill you. Pay attention at the spikes and pass through their barriers. Continue avoiding these obstacles until you reach the end of the level. Level 3-2 - Quicksands Here you have to pay attention at the quicksands: basically, when you see a sign look the ground and if it is strange in colour do not jump there. In the mid-half of the level you will have to wait for moving platforms. Continue like this until the end of the level. Level 3-3 – The mysterious oasis In this level you are in an oasis with an enigma to solve with 3 different hints. Basically, jump on one of the palms near the wall (there are invisible blocks where you can stay), then follow the other instructions to jump over spikes and then you will reach an invisible ground in order to pass the wall. Then, pay attention at the giant sand worm and touch the end of the level (hidden behind it). Level 3-4 – Into the pyramid In this pyramid you need to collect keys to open doors, each of a different colour. In the first room you just have to do the correct wall-jump to reach the key. In the second room avoid spikes and worms and do wall- jump to reach another key. Then go down and touch the checkpoint – pay attention that if you do game over you will have to recollect the keys. Go left and pass through the labyrinth to collect another key. Go right and pass thourgh the spikes by using the worms to jump. Go in the most right door and you will reach the key that you need to open the door at the starting of the level. Thus, return back at the starting of the level with wall- jumps. Level 3-5 – BOSS: Virtual_AncientMummy Use the gun to shoot the boss avoiding its magic attacks. Then, the boss will move to catch you: avoid it by wall-jumping through the walls of the room and keep shooting at it very quickly until its destruction. Level 4-1 - Underwater Jump into the sea and keep swimming by going into the deep. Pay attention at the fish enemies and at the spikes (there are tons here!). When you reach the bottom of the sea touch the checkpoint and go to the right, do not touch vortex of bubbles or anemones because they will kill you. Go up and then follow the arrows to reach the end of the level to the bottom. Level 4-2 – The treasure of the island Reach the island and talk with the inhabitants. There is a big spike that you can’t pass. But if you look a the small blue arrow in the island go there and you will fall down in the sea. Go down to collect a key avoiding jellyfish enemies.

Level 5-1 – Climbing the volcano You start at the bottom of the volcano. Climb the flank by paying attention at the spikes and rolling enemies. When you jump through the orange platform one of these will fall down, so try a try-and-error method to pass through them. You need to use these platforms at several moment during the climbing. When you reach the top and the main crater, let you fall down into it into the volcano to reach the end of the level. Level 5-2 – Volcano interior Go through the volcanic cave and do not fall into the lava. Pay attention at the lava spark enemies that go up and down – sometime there are multiple of these.

Level 6-5 – BOSS: Virtual_Yurei This boss fight can be very hard if you don’t follow the right steps. Climb the ice wall and reach the top of the tower. Shoot at the ghost very quickly by jumping continuously. The problem is that althrough the snowstorm there is also a random rain of ice spikes that can kill you instantaneously. Try to avoid them by using a statistical approach – stay in places where a spike just fallen and so on. At the mid-half of the battle the ghost will start to move and fly around the tower, continue shooting until its destruction. Level 7-1 – Stairway to the sky Proceede in the hallway of the airplane to the right (it is the only sense where you can go here).

Level 8-2 – Through the softwares Go right and use very precise wall jumps to avoid spikes and go right. Pass through the spikes without touching them. After the checkpoint use the enemies to jump over spikes and at the same time pay attention at the spheres. Basically almost all the floor here is covered by spikes. After this hard section go down and finish the level. Level 8-3 – No mercy This is a glitchy level (for the real purpose of the game!). You will start with a lot of players and you could control each one! But unfortunately probably almost all of them will die after seconds. But at least one have to survive until the level end. Go right and pay attention at the floor: when it become red it means that is deadly and you have to avoid it. Continuing right you have to go up out of the camera boundaries and to try to remember where the character is in order to jump the deadly floor – use the Pep in the room beneath you to as control. Continue right and avoid also deadly walls while making wall jumps, then touch the level end. Level 8-4 – System32 Go immediately right or you will fall on the spikes. Continue right on the moving platforms and jump on the very small blocks and then up. On the top jump over the spikes trying to see where you are. Then go down and after the checkpoint go always right. Use the moving platforms and avoid the giant energy spheres. Avoid the moving spikes on the floor and touch the end of the level. Level 8-5 – FINAL BOSS: Infernal_X Touch the central monitor to enter the final boss room. This final fight of the game is very hard and divided into 3 phases: Phase 1 – the boss will continuously shoot arrows at you, avoid the boss attack and shoot at him. Phase 2 – the boss will stop to shoot at you but now the problem is that if you shoot at him he reply by converting shoots in random enemies toward you. So, shoot him but immediately run away. Phase 3 – the screen will start to shake. The boss is moving in circle and shooting arrows at you. Try to avoid it and its deadly attacks and continue shooting until its destruction and the finish of the game! Congratulations! You completed Virality!
