Gameplay
The goal of this mission is to defeat all of the enemies before time runs out. The player must defeat thirty enemies in three minutes. The timer begins when the player ascends past a yellow grate.

The third and final wave has one Octocommander on a UFO behind a Splash Wall upfront, and an Octosniper on another UFO behind the Octocommander with a Splash Wall. When the player splats the Octocommander, a tank refill appears.

The player can pop a floating balloon to get an armor case. They can also break a box on the left to get a Sting Ray Special Can.
