Stage BasicsAs you move through this stage, take care to avoid the large snowflakes floating through the air. These slow-moving obstacles move along predetermined paths. Whenever possible, take a moment to observe a cluster of snowflakes before you attempt to slip past them. Many of the springboards scattered throughout the map tilt between various positions—wait until you’re aimed in the desired direction, then perform a Ground Pound to launch yourself off of the springboard. |
