Very straightforward mission. Throughout the mission you need to collect 2 laser upgrades and 3 bombs. 2 of the bombs will be out in the open and another will be collected after saving Falco. It's recommended you save anyone that's in trouble as they give out silver rings (and Falco gives bomb) which will increase your chances of living.
