Stage 2 – Standard Weapon Full Playthrough – 100% Each Stage.


ALL 5 STAGES NEED TO BE COMPLETED TO 100% IN ONE SITTING. USING THE LEVEL CODES WILL NOT WORK.
Keep in mind getting 100% for each stage needs to be done in the same playthrough, if you miss something you will have to start the game again. Only use the Standard Starting Default Weapon throughout the playthrough of the game, ignore any weapon crates.

To 100% each Level focus on:
Collecting all 52 Extra Life pick ups.
Collecting all 993 Coins
Killing enemies. (Need to kill 95% of the 1,465 enemies throughout the game).

Collectibles – Extra Lives and coins are vital for getting 100% stats on each stage. Collecting the ammo, hearts, shields etc is highly recommended and are included in the walkthroughs but not needed for trophies.

Follow the walkthrough for each stage. Take your time and be thorough. Pause the game while reading/watching the walkthrough so you don’t die for allowing the timer to run out.
Dying enough to lose all your lives and having to use a continue will reset the stats, meaning you need to start all over again.
There is a way to farm lives on Level 5, which is recommended. See the video for guidance.
Be warned that Level 4 can be glitchy in counting the coins.

Farm Lives to give a better chance of beating the game.

Level 5 – 375


 Deadeye
Get 60% hit accuracy in any level 

The easiest way to achieve this is start a new game, get to the end of level 1 where you meet a boss, purposely die enough to have to continue, this resets all your stats, so now just shoot the boss in the face and kill it. When you exit the room and the level ends the trophy will pop. See the video for guidance.

Easiest way to achieve the Deadeye Trophy

 Fly me to the moon!
Don’t touch the ground for 30 seconds

There are a few locations this can be done in the game, but it is recommended to be done on Level 5 due to no other enemies interfering. During Level 5 there are some retracting platforms in a row, where you need to catapult yourself off them to reach coins and the other side, afterwards there are 2 slow walking robot enemies with a lot of health, jump on them and keep bouncing off them until the trophy pops. See the video for guidance.
