Changes: Bug Lite

Revision as of 13:47, 5 July 2019

Bug Lite (まっクラいせきたんけんたい lit. Pitch-dark Archaeological Site Expedition Team in Japanese) is the twenty-fifth level and is the fifth and last level in the fifth warp room in Crash Bandicoot: Warped and its remake in the N. Sane Trilogy.

This level's name is a reference to the popular light beer "Bud Lite".

Overview

Set in ancient Egpyt at night time, Crash must make use of fireflies throughout the level to see his way to the crystal, on a path that is filled with various enemies such as crocodiles, mummies, and snakes.

Bug Lite is notable for having two gems, one is for collecting all the boxes along the main route, and the other is a multicolored gem route. In order to access the colored gem route, Crash must have previously obtained all the coloured gems in the game. The route starts on the blue gem platform which takes Crash to face a hallway laced with spears that shoot from the walls. The easiest way through here is to avoid the spotlights that trigger the darts by jumping over the holes in the floor, and carefully double jumping over the spears. The multicolored gem route is lit up, unlike most of the rest of the level.

Like Spaced Out in Cortex Strikes Back, each of the gem paths has a specific theme. The blue gem path focuses on using spotlight areas and coffin mummies. The green gem path focuses on using ground spikes and nitro crates at certain places. The purple gem path focuses on using scarab platforms and moving platforms to hinder Crash. The yellow gem path focuses on using spiked mummies to defeat Crash. The red gem path just lets Crash receive the gem with no obstacles, albeit there is an bottomless hole between the gem and the exit of the level.

Translation of Aku Aku Hints in the Japanese Version

The dark path requires fireflies. However, if you don't advance quickly, they will escape!
If you have got the green diamond, go to the high-tech future. The future is bright!

Trivia

It is possible to complete the multicolored gem route without the green gem by combining the glitched spin jump with the Double Jump and the Death Tornado Spin.

Bugliteironc — Scan from an unofficial guide, showing this level was originally to have an iron checkpoint crate in the yellow gem path.

Originally, this level was going to have an iron checkpoint crate in the yellow gem path. This was most likely removed to prevent players who hadn't obtained all of the coloured gems from getting trapped on the gem route without having to quit the level.
This level has the second most crates in the game, beaten only by Future Frenzy.
Unlike the other Egyptian-themed levels in the game, the floor of the bonus round does not consist completely of iron crates.
The N. Sane Trilogy adds an extra crate to this level, which appears to be a nitro crate that is out of the players sight and reach. It will detonate when the nitro crate switch is spun.

-'''Bug Lite''' (まっクラいせき たんけんたい lit. ''Pitch-dark Archaeological Site Expedition Team'' in Japanese) is the twenty-fifth level and is the fifth and last level of the fifth warp room of ''[[Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped]]''. In most of the level, the only light source comes from a firefly that circles around Crash. The firefly only sticks around for a limited amount of time, so Crash must move quickly to reach the next bug waiting for him before the light source takes off. The lack of light, and presence of enemies such as [[Crocodile|crocodiles]], [[Mummy|mummies]], and [[Snake|snakes]] make this arguably one of the most difficult levels in this game.
+This level's name is a reference to the popular light beer "Bud Lite".
-Bug Lite is notable for having two gems, one is for collecting all the boxes along the main route, and the other is a [[Multicolor Gem Path|multicolored gem route]]. In order to access the colored gem route, Crash must have obtained the blue, green, purple, yellow and red gems. This alternate route starts with the blue gem platform along the main route in Bug Lite. It takes [[Crash]] to face a hallway laced with spears that shoot from the walls. The easiest way through here is to avoid the [[Spotlight|spotlights]] that trigger the darts by jumping over the holes in the floor, and carefully double jumping over the spears. The multicolored gem route is lit up, unlike most of the rest of the level.

-===Name Origin===
-It is possible that the name of this level is a reference to "Bud Light", a light beer served at many events and sporting outlets. The "Bug" part refers to the fireflies that aid Crash throughout the level, while "Lite" is an alternate spelling for the light that the fireflies carry with them. The name could also be a reference to the Pixar film "A Bugs Life"

+*It is possible to complete the multicolored gem route without the [[green gem]] by combining the glitched spin jump with the [[Double Jump]] and the [[Death Tornado Spin]].
-*Like [[Spaced Out]] from ''[[Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back]]'', Bug Lite is the last level of ''Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped'' to contain a [[crystal]] and also has two gems (one earned by clearing all boxes and the other by using the multicolored gem route).
+[[File:bugliteironc.jpg|thumb|215x215px|Scan from an unofficial guide, showing this level was originally to have an iron checkpoint crate in the yellow gem path.]]
-**You can complete the multicolored gem route without the [[Green Gem]] by using the glitched high- jump, although most players have already attained the Green Gem when trying this route.
+*Originally, this level was going to have an [[Iron Checkpoint Crate|iron checkpoint crate]] in the yellow gem path. This was most likely removed to prevent players who hadn't obtained all of the coloured gems from getting trapped on the gem route without having to quit the level.
-*This level is known for being one of the only last mandatory levels in the ''Crash Bandicoot'' games to not have a technology-related theme.
+*This level has the second most crates in the game, beaten only by [[Future Frenzy]].
-*This is the third Crash level to have a firefly lighting the way following [[Night Fight]] and [[Totally Fly]] from the previous game.
+*Unlike the other Egyptian-themed levels in the game, the floor of the bonus round does not consist completely of iron crates.
-**The Japanese name of all these three levels contain the word "pitch-dark".
+*The ''N. Sane Trilogy'' adds an extra crate to this level, which appears to be a nitro crate that is out of the players sight and reach. It will detonate when the nitro crate switch is spun.
-*[[File:bugliteironc.jpg|thumb|215x215px|Scan from an unofficial guide, showing this level was originally to have an iron checkpoint crate in the yellow gem path.]] Originally, this level was going to have an [[Iron Checkpoint Crate|iron checkpoint crate]] in the yellow gem path. It's possible that it was removed because any player who hits that crate but didn't have the red gem would be trapped inside the yellow gem path and would have to exit the level. In the final version, whoever enters the multicolored gem path without all the gems can simply die and return to the last checkpoint hit on the main path of the level.
-*This level has the second most crates in the game, beaten only by [[Future Frenzy]]. This is quite different from previous pitch-dark levels, which never had many crates.
-*Unlike the other Egyptian-themed levels in the game, the floor of the bonus round does not consist completely of iron crates, but mainly on normal floor.
