Description

There are five sectors in Octo Canyon: Tentakeel Outpost, Suction-Cup Lookout, Beaker's Depot, Slimeskin Garrison, and Cephalon HQ. Each sector has a boss kettle and several invisible kettles for normal levels. Each level contains a Zapfish that the player must retrieve at the end of each level. In certain levels, there are eight Mini Zapfish scattered across the level. In this circumstance, the player must capture all eight Mini Zapfish in order to earn the Zapfish. After defeating the final level, Callie appears and tells the player statistics about their weapons, splats, assists, accuracy, and more.
