Brief overview

The player must defeat all five enemies, while on a platform made of crates. Defeating all enemies in a wave starts a new wave until all waves are cleared. Clearing the final wave, by defeating all the enemies, immediately passes the test. Since this test uses only one checkpoint, which is located at the beginning, falling off the platform or getting splatted means the player has to begin the test from the start.

Wave 1

The Launchpad leads to a squid-shaped platform made out of crates. In the first wave, there are two Sanitized Octocopters that spawn above the 'eyes' of the platform, one on the right and one on the left. On the top of the 'head' of the platform, there is Armor.

Wave 2

In the second wave, there are two Sanitized Deluxe Octocopters that spawn under the 'eyes' of the platform, one on the right and one on the left. On the bottom right of the 'tentacles' of the platform, there is a Power Egg container.

Final wave

In the third and final wave, there is a Sanitized Deluxe Octobomber that spawns between the 'eyes' of the platform. Defeating this enemy immediately passes the test.

How desolate this star-marked limb. Is what awaits me this same fate? I must not dwell; it's much too grim.
