Propeller-Lift Playground

Propeller-Lift Playground is the sixth mission in single-player mode, Octo Valley. It gets its name from its heavy use of Propellers.

Octo Valley
After the player clears The Mighty Octostomp!, they gain access to Area 2 via an Inkrail. Turn left and walk toward the middle and largest pillar and shoot the invisible kettle on top of it to access the level.

Beginning
Walk forward until reaching the grated flooring and shoot the 4 Octopods below. Then the player will be met with 3 Octopods above a ramp which will proceed down toward the player. After swimming up the ramp the player there will be 2 Octopods past the ramp. There will be a propeller past them which the player will shoot and proceed forward to the first check point.

Checkpoint 1
Moving past the checkpoints will be 2 small walls, 3 propeller platforms, and 5 Octotroopers above. The strategy would just be to rise on the middle platform and shoot from above the Octotroopers to advance to another checkpoint.

Checkpoint 2
There will be another ramp and 2 small walls with 2 Twintacle Octotroopers which can be dispose of quickly as they move side to side in their pool of ink. Then the player will have to ride the platform, shoot the wall, and swim up it to the next launch pad and the next checkpoint.

Checkpoint 3
There will be a forward moving propeller platform where the player will pass by an Octocopter. At the end of that platform's travel will be an Octotrooper on a small pillar and a Twintacle Octrooper circling it. The next platfrom will be the same except with 2 Octocopters on the way and a Shielded Octrotrooper with a Twintacle Octotrooper which need to be defeated to unlock the launch pad which sends you to the Final Checkpoint.

Final Checkpoint
The player will need to shoot at propellers to make a cube descend then shoot and swim up a wall. There will be a small wall and a cube with a propeller on the front to move it towards you with a Twintacle Octotrooper on top. Move forward to another cube similar to the first one with 2 Octotroopers on top it. Move forward to another platform to rise to the top and reach the Zapfish.

Trivia

 * Several strange sounds (rust and decay) can be heard near the various cranes found with in this level. These sounds are later heard during the Undeniable Flying Object mission.
 * After the last checkpoint, there are three propeller-lifts. Behind the first one and below the third one are the characters イ and カ, which together form the katakana "ika", the Japanese word for "squid".
