Corneria
At the beginning just shoot everything in sight. If you wish to accomplish the mission save falco from the three ships. When you reach the water go through all of the arch things and falco will lead you to a special boss. Although if you are just starting out I recommend that you just defeat the ordinary boss and move onto the asteroids.
Mission 2
Into the asteroid field once again just shoot everything and try to get a good score at first. If you wish to accomplish the mission go through all of the blue gates and defeat the boss it doesn't make a difference you will go onto the same level either way.
Mission 3
Fortuna
This is one of the most annoying levels in the game because if you don't take out star wolf and the other 3 freaks in the time limit then you will go onto sector x. So do your best to beat star wolf and his gang and accomplish the mission. By the way if you want to get a medal on fortuna just kill star wolf before you only have 1 minute left.
Mmission 4
Out of the frying pan....
Be very careful not to fly to low on this level because you will take damage from the heat. The boss on this level is mildly easy compared to some others just shoot it's arms off and go for the head until he dies. When he starts spinning a good way to avoid the fireballs is to fly as high as you can.
Mission 5
Mcbeth - The forever train
This is one of the harder levels for all first time players. At the beginning shoot the train carts with the rocks in them so he can't use them against you and it also gives you some good points. I recommend that you don't try to accomplish this mission because if you only complete it the next level is easier and more fun. To defeat the boss shoot the head and the claw thing of the big robot thing. After that keep an eye on the back of the train because once that opens you need to shoot it and then fire countless shots at the robot. Keep doing this until it is
destroyed.
Mission 6
The last hurrah
This level is quite easy just shot the top of all 6 energy towers until the shield is destroyed. Then a whole lot of ships come out and you will hear a lot of distress calls from peppy, slippy and falco. After a while a big tower will come out of the middle. When this happens shoot all of the yellow things on it. Bombs might come in handy here.
Mission 7
Venom - Andross home world
All through this level is a big shooting frenzy there will be ships everywhere. Once up to the temple you will see a big stone guy. Shoot him but don't go for the head until you have destroyed all of the rest of his armour. Belive it or not this is not the final boss. Fox will then fly into a tunnel and there will be many power ups all over. Once up to Andross
shoot him in the eyes so he is paralysed for a moment. Then shoot the hands until they are destroyed. Keep repeating until done. Once his hands are gone aim for the eyes still but you can go for all around the head. Once his face is gone you will see a kind of bat looking thing. SHOOT IT EVERYWHERE till it is destroyed and that's it.
