3 of 29: Kill them all in the two flame rooms.
4 of 29: You'll need to find an Oscuro key here for later.
5 of 29: Hit a touchplate by one of the blue walls.

8 of 29: You should get the Mercury Mode power-up.
9 of 29: Fly over to the first column to the right.
10 of 29: Look for a touchplate to open it up.
11 of 29: Run in, and hit the touchplate by the flame wall.
12 of 29: Run out, float over the flame pits, over the Snake Oscuro, and into the Oscuro key room.
13 of 29: Float up, above the small wall and trigger the secret door.
14 of 29: The secret door is the one with the Triad.

20 of 29: Now, get a vest, run backwards, and shoot at Oscuro.
21 of 29: He has to be at a distance.
22 of 29: If he is green, he is too close. Your shots won't do damage.
23 of 29: If he is blue, he's at a good distance, but you have to wait until he's flesh colored.

25 of 29: Get the crystals to regain life.
26 of 29: Get weapons when you get low.
27 of 29: And find more vests once they run out of time! Those vests will protect you from damage, but they wear out quick.
28 of 29: Hit him enough times, and you win!
29 of 29: If you didn't kill all of the eggs, try again!
