* [[Back Tracking]]: The checkpoint flags avoid this happening for the most part. You simply fly back to the end of a level to access a new section, when you gain the means to progress. But there are two clear examples of this. When you gain the red plunger off Goofy or the bubblegum ammo from Gyro, your forced to head all the way back through the level to a flag to get picked up in the plane. The sections aren't that long so it's a minor case.

* [[Big Bad]]: Pete, who was actually ''literally'' known as "Big Bad Pete" at the time.

* [[Polar Bears and Penguins]]: Penguins in the North Pole.

* [[Shout-Out]]: ''[[Indiana Jones]]'' gets ''a lot'' of references in the game. It's clearly the major inspiration for the game.

* [[Treasure Map]]: King Garuzia's map sets the game in motion.

* [[Under the Sea]]: A booby trapped, spike ridden section of Dracula's castle makes up the obligatory underwater level. Dracula ''really'' didn't want people getting to him it seems.
