after 3 hours of playing the same old thing, still stuck...I looked to the
read me file for help...I honesly don't have a clue on how to pass the 1st
bunch of enemys...I mean I jump over the bounce guy, but then those walking
guys (there's 1 right?) turns into 3!! And where ever I land I hit
them....and yeah yeah yeah I know that this is a VERY stupid question, I'm
just wondering though....this was V1.1....and with 1.1 it was made for
AURA? Or whatever it's called....I don't have that..so could the multiple
enemy's (1 spliting int 3, unless it's supose to) be realated to me not
havint AURA (or whatever it's called)......Maybe I'll give 1.0 a
whirl.....I know that I have been asking some really stupid questions (well
at least to some of those short tempered show-offs out there) but that is
what the list is for....


I borrowed my brother's 83 (I have an 82) and transferred penguins to it.
He then played it (you know how brothers are...stingy :).  What you need to
do is wait at the very end of the last stairstep until the smiley face
walks toward you and then away.  He will disappear off the edge of the
screen and won't come back (unless you walk backwards).  Now, just walk
under the bouncing guy.  Time your jump past the second smiley face
carefully.  After that, the rest of the level is easy.  Your multiple enemy
"problem" is due to the fact that if you walk back and forth, the enemy
will constantly re-appear at the spot where it originates.  This adds
challenge to the game.

Hope I could be of help,
