Year Of The Dragon


The 4th and final bonus level taken with the bird's eye view camera. Sparx has the same moves and powerups as the other bonus levels, but these robot beetles move fast and Sparx has to use turbo mode to capture the force field keys.

Bugbot Factory 1 There are several different beetles. The first blue beetles, carry the room keys with them... Sparx has to chase the blue beetles, firing at them, dislodging the key from their claws. Once you capture the key, the guard beetle vaporizes leaving a gem behind. The little red attack bettles are fast and there's lots of them. The blue and white beetles that look like planes, move around. You have to follow them pegging them any way you can. This will stop the flow of new red beetles and allows Sparx time to clean-up.

Bugbot Factory 2 The secret to killing the larger blue and white beetle ship, is to have Sparx match his moves. To do this, hold down the [L1] key and use the directional pad to move Sparx. This will freeze Sparx in the direction he is facing. Using the directional pad, you can move up and down, left or right, while firing in the direction of the beetle ship. Keep the ship within the view screen and he eventually vaporizes. The green guard beetles have a long reach with their electrical bursts, but Sparx can peg them from a distance.

Bugbot Factory 3 As you work through the level you enter a large room with several force field doors and a beetle ship surrounded by a force field. To the far left, Sparx can get a special invincibility powerup on a timer. Take advantage of this power and get as many keys as you can. I was able to get 3. Once you have released all the keys, 3 blue and white mother ships are released and hords of little red spiders. It's especially fun if you have the rapid fire powerup. You can blast away and cause some serious enemy carnage.

Bugbot Factory 4 Farther in the level, you face more beetle ships and guard beetles. Take care of business and advance to the final arena. Inside is the moving serpent. Avoid being hit by one of his laser bursts. It's deadly!! Plug away at his tail, burning off one piece at a time. He splits into two as his power decreases. Like Starfish Reef, concentrate on one baby serpent and keep plugging away until he vaproizes. Then work on the 2nd baby serpent until he vaporizes... Job done!! All the doors are now open to get any missed gems.

NEW EARNED POWERS: Sparx now gives Spyro the ability to break open hardened treasure chests and can warp from any level to any level using the Atlas.

There is 1 hatchling egg to free in this level:

ANABELLE = Reward for defeating the bugbot serpent and the 2 babies.
