"We need to build up a massive storm, and the best way is to rush through these storm gates!"
― Nimbus [src]
After three Zones of destroying buildings, Zephyr must build up a massive storm in a Vortex Race to later reach the Totems safely.
The Basics[]
Follow Nimbus through the gates. The race gets progressively faster the longer you go without missing a gate.
Gates that are orange contain Fire Flyers. They will explode and slow you down if you don't shield when you go through them.
Medals[]
Vortex Races are scored based on the overall accuracy. Missing a gate will reduce the player's score along with the amount of unlockable content.
Gold[]
A Gold medal requires the following:
- At least 374,000 score or 50 to 30 or 20 fire flyers at once Avoid the Fire Flyers blocking the storm gates!
- Get all of the flyers
Silver[]
A Decent Score. You won't earn as many unlockables as you would with a Gold medal.
- Have a minimum of 250,000
- Only miss around one to three gates.
Bronze[]
Much like the silver, you won't earn as many unlockables as you would with a Gold Medal.
- A score of 15,000
- Only miss four to eight gates; gates with Fire Flyers also count
Nothing[]
if you fail, you will get little to no unlockables at all. Attempting to fail on purpose will eventually force the player to restart the vortex race.
Requirement(s):
- 2,000 or 2 flyers at once
- Miss ten to twenty gates.
Co-Op[]
In multiplayer, Player 1 steers the tornado while Player 2 controls the shield.
Both players must work together in perfect unison to complete the race. Failing to complete the race results in the opposite player controlling the tornado while the other player controls the shield.
