Stage	Image	Notes
1-1	Example	Touch at least one tulip; this one is recommended. Get the invincibility candy in this same room. Finish the level.
1-2	Example	Choose whether to take Chuchu or go solo. The level is easier with Chuchu but faster without.
1-3	Example	Get Coo in this door in the first room. Get Coo here.
	Example	If death occurs in or after this autoscroller, finish the level without Coo, then go back in and get him.
1-4	Example	Stone is optional and can be used all the way until 2-6 if desired. Go back to 1-3 and get Coo.
	Example	When encountering the 3 Zebons (green blobs), go in the middle one so that you get an invincibility candy. From this point on, finish the level without Coo. Afterwards, if you want Stone, get both Stone and Coo in 1-3. If not, get Coo in 1-5.
1-5	Example	Keep going and pick up Coo in the left door of the next room.
	Example	Get Coo in this door.
	Example	If you die in or after this room, finish the level. Then get Coo (and Stone if desired)in 1-3 before going to 1-6.
1-6	Example	Go back to 1-3 for Coo (and Stone if desired).
	Example	The corners of this room are dead-ends. Zigzag left and right through the tower that you start in. Go into the first door in the next room to get Coo.
	Example	Coo is in this door if needed. If not using Stone for Whispy, get Clean in this room. Get Coo here, and either Clean in this room or Stone later in the level.
	Example	If you lose your ability, regain it before Whispy. Stone is in the next room and Clean is in 1-5. If using Gooey, have him take Coo and you can destroy the block beneath you (with Clean, Stone, or by inhaling) and fall straight down. If you die in this room or the next, finish the level without Coo. Then get Coo in 1-3. Also get Stone or Clean as described above.
If you don't have Coo, get him in 1-3. If you don't have an ability, get Clean in 1-5.
Boss	Example	Coo and Clean is the fastest way to beat Whispy; Coo and Stone is the easiest. Clean can be discarded after Whispy, but Stone can be kept. If you lose your ability, just continue the fight. Get Coo in 1-3 and either Stone in 1-3 or Clean in 1-5.
