Boss guide[]

Knuckles attacks include:

  • Using the Spin Dash.
  • Knuckles jumps up and glides towards the player, ending it when he is above the player.
  • If the player gets too close to Knuckles, he may use a two-punch combo to attack the player.

If the player attempts to use the Spin Attack or Spin Dash on Knuckles, he will crouch to deflect the attack, causing the player to bounce back in the opposite direction. To defeat Knuckles, the player must Spin Jump on Knuckles' head while he is standing, or from beneath him if he is gliding; Knuckles will also suffer damage if he falls on the player while they are using the Spin Dash. Between attacks, Knuckles will idle for a brief period though he will immediately attack if the player successfully hits him.

After eight hits, Knuckles is temporarily knocked out, thus ending the battle.
