They have the same moves from the Megadrive games, but they do not have that shadow move that evades jump attacks, thank goodness.

At times, the block crushes at timed intervals. Sometimes, there will be a button that lets you manually control the block. This stage type features conveyer belts where timed exploding barrels can drop, or a crushing block appears in the centre. The latter hazard is telegraphed with glowing light before the strike happens, so move out of the way before it hits. The former will alter your jump and air movement. Two things can happen in this stage type: either the wind current will blow to the left, or there will be random lightning strikes. Just memorize how each of them activates in order, then navigate the stage accordingly. Occasionally, you may come across flamethrowers that shoots out fire that covers a good portion of the stage. If you play your cards right, you can have the wrecking balls do the work for you. The stage also has electric fences and a pit in the middle (sometimes). This stage type will be filled with wrecking balls that can knock enemies (and yourself) off the stage with a little momentum. Watch out for telegraphs and indicators, though it’s easier said than done since the game will throw a ton of enemies in the later stages. The lava traps are usually arranged in a pattern so there will be safe spots for you to wait at. This stage type will either have lava traps that spits lava from the ground, falling meteors, or both. These triggers activate once, unless they shoot out darts in which case you can use it multiple times. You can kite enemies to your location and then launch these traps to hurt foes. This stage type will have triggers that can launch either crushing traps, darts, or a health item. Here’s the breakdown of each stage with screencaps. If you’re ballsy and confident, get this powerup early. Remember: you can only sap life with this powerup from your own hits and Star Moves, not from environmental hazards like wrecking balls and bottomless pits. If you get this early, you have less enemies to hit and sap life from. …Only get it if it’s offered to you after Level 20 onward. Just use them if there are too many enemies to handle. The going gets tough and numerous in Stage 20 and beyond, so at this point in time, you should be able to amass more than 3 stars up to this point. If you feel like you’re in a bind because of enemies ganging up on you, just use a Star move. So if you have the opportunity to get the score multiplier powerup (Reach For The Stars), get it.ĭon’t hoard them. Having more will help prolong your survivability. Getting past a score threshold nets you a star, which lets you do a screen clear of sorts to kill off enemies. Get The Powerup That Multiplies Your Score

This gets riskier as enemies get faster past the level 20 mark. The latter will sap your life, though you can get it back by hitting enemies to refill the green bar. Ditto for Blitz moves since you need to preserve your life, you’ll need to rely on basic attacks, jump attacks, and Blitzes more than Specials. You can stack them up if given the chance, so your regular fourth or fifth basic combo move can electrocute, poison, and set baddies aflame and anyone around them. Whether it’s fire, electricity, or toxic, having elemental buffs on your attacks is always a plus. Pick The Elemental Powerups For Your Last Combo Hits & Blitz Attacks To unlock all of them, just reach Survival Mode Level 30 and beyond.

The new DLC adds in new weapons that are exclusive to this mode, at first. Certain Weapons Are Only Available In This Mode (Initially) So if you have a favourite character or two, it’s best to replay Survival mode to unlock additional moves for them, so that you can mix and match the perfect Blitz and Special move combinations for the occasion. For instance, Axel’s new Dragon Roll move has decent recovery, meaning you can roll left and right damaging enemies if it’s laced with Electric, Fire, and Poison.
