Mechanics
- Inkvisible Avenues features many Invisible Platforms, using them for floors, walls, and ramps.
- Balloon Fish are sometimes used to quickly reveal Invisible Platforms.
Beginning Area
From the starting point, carefully head over to what appears to be a large gap with a Balloon Fish placed directly in the middle. You will then receive a message from Cap'n Cuttlefish informing you that the Octarian forces have hidden the path. Shoot the Balloon Fish to reveal the hidden paths. As soon as you have made it over the Invisible path, head over a small ramp and you will notice a relatively small gap with two Octocopters on the other side. Hidden beside the gap are several invisible walls, which you can use to your advantage. As soon as you move in closer to take out the Octocopters, Cap'n Cuttlefish will once again message informing you of an Octoling ambush. Deploy a burst bomb or use your Hero Shot to take out the octocopters and then move on to your next target: the lone Octoling. Once the enemies have been dispatched a Launchpad to Checkpoint One will be revealed.
Checkpoint 1
After you've super jumped from the beginning area, there will be an octopod. Splat it then move forward. There will be an octostamp. From there, if you move forward, there will be two Twintacle Octotroopers and a barrier to hide behind. Once you've splatter them, head up the invisible ramp. Turn around and you'll find an Octobomber. Once you've splatter it, head to the next checkpoint.
