If so, how do you get past the rampaging mutant ant in the third screen to the right.  BTW you have aquired NO powers yet.

There's no trick to it, as far as I can tell. I just jumped over the ant as it ran back and forth. It requires good timing, but it's doable.

It's easiest to make the jump if you always jump in the direction the enemy's running towards you from (i.e. if it's charging from behind you, jump backwards then continue in the right direction once you land.)

Well, thanks guys, yes, I CAN jump over it ONCE or twice, but then it just keeps doubling back and running at you wherever you are.  How are you supposed to make it all the way to the other side? I just keep jumping back and forth in the same spot until eventually it runs me over!

Maybe it's easier to show you than to explain it in words. YouTube video here.

wow.  Thank you for posting that!  You know, I completed "Infestation", "Deep Forest", no problem!  (well, it took a while). But I thought THAT was impossible!  Thanks again!
