Use Walls to Your Advantage

use the walls to your advantage

What Are They? Can We Stop Them?! focuses on defeating Octarians as effectively as possible. By using the walls found throughout this stage you can avoid enemy attacks, and catch them off guard, making them much easier to defeat.

Attack From Above When Possible

use the higher ground to splat foes easily

Attacking from above allows you to splat multiple enemies more easily, and makes it easier to dodge their attacks. As such using ink to climb to high places and attack from above is recommended.

Clear Out Enemy Ink

cover-up enemy ink to move freely

Enemy Ink can slow your movements, making you vulnerable to enemy attacks. It is advised to cover any enemy ink with your own before proceeding through the stage.
