StarBoy's Walkthrough:
(SNES edition)
October 16th-17th, 2018
Stage 13S/14G - PHR0
Item(s) - 1 healthy fruit A, 1 healthy fruit B, 2 extra health shields
You are now inside the pyramid in one of the rare instances of the game where you commence a stage by heading towards the left as opposed to the usual right.
Walk ahead as Olaf until you stop at a wall that's blocking you where on the other side is a leaping spearman. Now run towards that wall as Erik and ram it down, thereby opening up the path while at the same time getting within vicinity of this enemy. Fortunately the ceiling space is so low that the chances of him leaping over you is close to nil, especially with Olaf's shield by his stead. Take this time to switch to Baleog and dish three hits against the spearman to dispose of him.
Walk towards the end until you come across a button, but do not press it manually, for doing so will collapse the breakable platforms as the one below it leads to a set of spikes. Instead, stand on any of the two breakable platforms apart from that spot and have Baleog shoot it with an arrow to activate it, letting you fall safely on a couple of platforms. Have Olaf fall to the left and block the stationary fireball-spewing cannon with his shield in front of him so the fireballs will not penetrate you or the other Vikings, also right beside it is a healthy fruit A if you need it.
Walk towards the right as Baleog and you'll contend with a leaping spearman, slay him, and if you walk a tiny bit more you'll deal with another one. Take him down as well and proceed forward.
Walk to the end of the floor with all three Vikings, with Olaf going last. You'll find another button that will set the trap with the collapsing platforms once it's pressed. Stand over the portion where it touches the bottom of the screen, and press it to let the Vikings fall down following the destruction of the collapsible ground. Go down the incline as Olaf, but the moment you see a leaping spearman revert back and position yourself in a way that this enemy won't leap over you. Have Baleog deal with him.
Along the way you'll come across a healthy fruit B which only Erik can reach with his jumping prowess. Take it if you need it, and continue walking...
until you come across a bed of spikes separated by a small platform, jump on it as Erik. There is a blocked path with a button right next to it, have Baleog shoot it to open up the path, but as soon as you shoot switch back to Erik and jump to the left where you'll see a switch. Flip it to fill the two gaps so that anyone can walk through, and as Olaf walk with his shield above his head to block the slowly descending path blocker; you have a few seconds from the moment Erik flips his switch to do this. If you did it right then have Baleog walk past Olaf and once he and Erik are on the left then have Olaf follow, enabling the block to finish its descent as a result. Climb down the ladder.
Once you're all the way down as Baleog there are a couple spearmen that you'll have to take down. Once you've done so continue walking right.
Close to the ladder is a scorpion that you'll have to kill. Maintain good sword swinging distance, strike it thrice, and it's gone.
At the end of the bottom floor is a stationary fireball-spewing cannon, and floating between it and the ladder in midair is an extra health shield, but considering that it's pretty much close to the exit of the stage (right above it, in fact) you probably won't need it, but if you feel compelled to obtain it then jump up to it as Erik or glide down with your shield as Olaf. If this path sounds taxing, there is an alternative way to reach it.
As you climb down the ladder feel through to the right about halfway down (right where Baleog is standing in the left screenshot), and as you keep walking along the hidden path you'll find a big opening with a leaping spearman. Annihilate him as Baleog so that the enemy won't hurt any of the Vikings; there is also an extra health shield that only Erik can reach as it is just slightly above walking distance.
Walk some more until you come across a dead end, or so it seems. Switch controls to Erik and ram it down to reveal a path leading directly to the exit. Regardless of which path you choose, join all three Vikings there, and you're good to go! =)
HAAA, wordplay, love it! =3
Congratulations, you survived Stage 13S/14G!!!
