Quick answer

What is Lightning Trails?

Lightning Trails is a side-scrolling platform adventure with ten stages across five zones. Move right over gaps and hazards, collect rings, and reach the exit. A second jump in the air gives a companion boost when it is ready, helping you reach higher routes. Land on patrolling enemies from above to defeat them. The second stage of each zone ends with a boss: stomp it enough times before the exit gate will clear. A checkpoint flag around the middle of a stage saves your return point.

Reach the exit safely

  1. Move with Left/Right or A/D; jump with Space, Up or W. Press jump again in the air for the companion boost, which needs a short cooldown before reuse.
  2. Collect rings along the route. On a normal hit, a shield is used first; otherwise rings can absorb the hit at a cost of up to 15. A pit fall still costs a life.
  3. Stomp enemies from above rather than running into them. On a boss stage, keep landing on the boss until it is defeated, then move to the exit.

Use the stage systems

  • Reaching 100 rings grants an extra life. High routes also hold hidden ring groups, so a well-timed air boost can be useful.
  • The midpoint checkpoint is saved for a retry. Completing a stage unlocks the next one.

Lightning Trails FAQ

How do I jump a second time?

Press jump while airborne when the companion boost is ready; it has a brief cooldown after use.

Do rings protect me from falling?

No. Rings can absorb an ordinary hit, but a fall into a pit costs a life.

How do I beat a patrolling enemy?

Land on it from above while falling. Touching it from the side can hurt you.

Why will the exit not open?

In the second stage of each zone, the boss must be defeated by repeated stomps before you can finish.

How many stages are there?

There are ten stages arranged as two stages in each of five zones.
