How to Beat Falcon McFly

Falcon McFly Strategy
Avoid Falling at All Costs Spits Different Kinds of Enemies Turn Into A Ball During Fiery Beak Attack Unscrew the Wing Mechanisms Hit the Bump on Its Head

Avoid Falling at All Costs

Falling during this fight will restart the entire battle. Be especially cautious while in ball form, as falling off will undo all your progress.

Spits Different Kinds of Enemies

During the whole battle, the boss will be spewing different kinds of enemies with its mouth. Each enemy can either be avoided or defeated.

Watch out for the large chickens that take up a quarter of the boss’s back. Avoid them, as attacking these chickens can cause you to fall.

Turn Into A Ball During Fiery Beak Attack

The first defense of Falcon Mcfly is the mechanism found in its wings. However you cannot simply go there unless the wings are stationary, otherwise you'll fall since the boss is flying through the air and the wings are continuously flapping.

To make them stationary, wait for the Fiery Beak Attack . Turn into a metal ball to become invulnerable. Once the boss targets you, revert to normal form, causing it to stagger.

Unscrew the Wing Mechanisms

When the boss is staggered, it will stop flapping its wings. Move towards one of the wing mechanisms and attack the nearby screw multiple times to open the lid.

Then, transform into a ball and press the button. Note that you only need to do this for one wing.

Jump On the Boss's Head

After activating a wing mechanism, the boss will turn its head away. Use the trampoline at the base of its head to bounce onto its back.

Transform into a ball and press the button on its head. Do this three times to beat him.

Hit the Bump on Its Head

After three successful hits, Falcon McFly’s helmet will break, revealing a bump on its head.

Attack this bump to finish the battle.
