Tips & Warnings
Use power ups to your advantage. The shield power up allows you to be injured one time without losing any rings. The star power up makes you completely invincible for a period of time.
If you are injured, your rings scatter around you. Quickly gather at least one ring so that if you are injured again you will not die.
Seek out the checkpoints on each level, if you miss it and accidentally die at the very end of a level you have to start completely over.
