Metal Island[1] (メタルアイランドエリア Metaruairandoeria?, Lit. "MetalIsland Area") is the third level of Tails' Skypatrol.
Description[]
The level sees Tails navigate his way through a whirring course of aeronautics equipment attached, for some reason, to pieces of the terrain itself. Fixed-position cannons blast munitions into the cyan sky, and the robots come thick and fast.
Story[]
Gameplay[]
As with the other levels of Tails' Skypatrol, Tails must simply fly through the level left-to-right, dodging obstacles and maintaining the flight gauge through continuous consumption of Mint Candy.
Overview[]
Boss[]
The boss, Carrottia
Carrottia, an anthropomorphic rabbit, is another of Witchcart's henchmen. Carrottia's vehicle is, in true bunny cliché, a big floating carrot; on top of this, she attacks poor Tails with a barrage of vegetable-shaped homing missiles, and deadly kisses.
Trivia[]
- Elements from this level seem to be borrowed from Tidal Tempest from Sonic the Hedgehog CD as well as Wing Fortress Zone from Sonic the Hedgehog 2.
