-5s on Puffy

Alex 09-29-2006, 8:46 AM

I'm trying to beat 40,000 on SM (I've done it on every level bar this one). I can get just over 20,000 on the level, which means I need 2.0 on Puffy to reach on my target.

Generally I find Puffy really easy, but the few times I've gotten over 20k I've screwed up. One time I swear I just flew into her to grab her and got a -5, seemingly for no reason at all.

How does puffy harm you? I know she's more likely to harm you if she's just been thrown and is moving fast, but that seems to 50/50. As mentioned before, sometimes she's not even doing anything and I'll get a -5 just by trying to grab her. The only sure-fire way to get a -5 is to bounce her either off a wall or a floor and into Nights.

The first time I've ever thrown a pad was when I really needed that 2.0 and got a -5 on Puffy for no bloody reason.

I always thought you had to grab her lower half, and touching her above the waist would damage you. But I'm not entirely sure on that, either.

As far as I know, you can grab Puffy by flying or dashing into any part of her. If you are standing still, or she bounces off a wall fast enough into you, then you'll lose 5 seconds.

Also, once you complete the game, you can select which boss you want to fight in the options screen, so you can pick your best boss for score runs - mine being Gillwing :p

Just for future referrance, theres a Boss section for these types of questions :)

Heh, GSK actually said pretty much everything I was looking to cover there. I will tell you one thing that might be helpful though its catergorically not possible to paraloop puffy as far as I can tell.
