The level begins with a long path made of isolated cloud platforms and littered with various enemies, including Shotzos, Scarfies, and parasol-wielding Waddle Dees. Kirby will have to travel to the right by jumping over gaps and dealing with any enemies that get in his way in order to reach the door at the end of a long stone walkway.
The level begins on a cloud platform, with a bottomless pit to the left, and a continuing path to the right. A number of enemies come to meet Kirby as he jumps from cloud to cloud, being careful to avoid the additional bottomless pits along the way. There are also a number of invulnerable enemies to contend with here, who need to be avoided. The path zigs and zags across several clouds, which will really test Kirby's maneuvering skills up to this point. Inside a small cloud cave, a horde of [[Scarfy|Scarfies]] appear. While cute at first, if Kirby tries to inhale them, they will transform into terrible monsters and chase him down, then explode. It is best to either avoid them, or hit them with a star or air pellet projectile. The path eventually makes way to a solid stone walkway, where a [[Parasol (enemy)|Parasol]]-wielding [[Waddle Dee]] will float down to 'greet' our hero. He is followed by an entire battalion of Parasol-wielding enemies further down the path, including a suspended [[Shotzo]]. The door to the next section lies beyond them, in a gatehouse guarded by several flying foes.


The door leads to an interior castle hall leading off to the right. A [[Sir Kibble]] appears on the path, who can throw boomerangs at Kirby to hurt him. The boomerangs cannot be swallowed, but the Kibble itself is not so immune. The path continues past more of these guys, along with some [[Waddle Doo]]s, and then past a hall of spikes which Kirby must be careful to avoid. From there, it leads outside to a walkway patrolled by [[Puffy|Puffies]] and other enemies. At the end of the walkway is a gap, which Kirby must jump to reach a door on a cloud at the other side.
The next room is an interior castle hall leading off to the right, guarded by boomerang-wielding foes and lined with spikes in places. From there, it leads outside to a walkway patrolled by different foes. At the end of the walkway is a gap, which Kirby must jump to reach a door on a cloud at the other side.


The door leads to a clouded pathway patrolled by several enemies. The path is lumpy and windy, and leads to a fork splitting to the left and right. The left path leads past a small pool into what appears to be a dead end. The right path leads upward past several more enemies, until the door to the next section can be found at the end between two columns.

The door leads to an interior room where [[Kracko Jr.]] must be fought. It fights by throwing bullets along the ground while swooping about in a fixed motion. It can them be harmed by swallowing and spitting back at it the Waddle Doo it creates. Hitting it three times will destroy it and cause a [[Warp Star]] to appear, which will take Kirby to the next section.

After flying into the starry night sky, Kirby appears in the next section from a hole with water pouring out, and falls into a pool below. To the left is a Mint Leaf, and to the right, the path continues along a wide hall, which leads to a large Star Block barricade patrolled by [[Gordo]]s. A snack or two can be acquired inside this barricade if Kirby maneuvers correctly. From there, the path narrows into a winding hall, part of which is lined with spikes. A Scarfy guards the door to the next section.

Bubbly Clouds is the third stage of [[Spring Breeze]] in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and {{KSSU}}. It is a largely truncated version of the same level from ''Kirby's Dream Land'' and features different enemies and Copy Abilities, though it still preserves a certain lunar secret near the end.

Bubbly Clouds is the fourth stage of Kirby's Dream Land, and the third stage in Spring Breeze, in Kirby Super Star (Ultra). The area is dominated by cloud-top landscapes, dotted with pillars and other structures. The boss of Bubbly Clouds is Kracko.

Kirby's Dream Land

Cutscene

Kirby falls into a cloud, and disappears from view. Shortly after, the cloud starts churning, then starts raining numerous different copies of Kirby, along with some large stars.

Full Level Synopsis

The level begins with a long path made of isolated cloud platforms and littered with various enemies, including Shotzos, Scarfies, and parasol-wielding Waddle Dees. Kirby will have to travel to the right by jumping over gaps and dealing with any enemies that get in his way in order to reach the door at the end of a long stone walkway.

The next room is an interior castle hall leading off to the right, guarded by boomerang-wielding foes and lined with spikes in places. From there, it leads outside to a walkway patrolled by different foes. At the end of the walkway is a gap, which Kirby must jump to reach a door on a cloud at the other side.

From there, Kirby finds another enemy-littered cloud walkway. The path is lumpy and windy, and leads to a fork splitting to the left and right. The left path leads past a small pool into what appears to be a dead end. The right path leads upward past several more enemies, until the next door can be found between two columns.

This door leads to an interior room where Kracko Jr. must be fought. He fights by throwing bullets along the ground while swooping about in a fixed motion. Kracko Jr. can be harmed by swallowing and spitting back the Waddle Doo he creates. Hitting him three times will cause him to burst, leaving behind a Warp Star which takes Kirby for a ride.

After flying into the starry night sky, Kirby appears in the next area from a waterfall hole, and falls into a pool below. To the left is a Mint Leaf, and to the right, the path continues along a wide hall which leads to a large Star Block barricade patrolled by Gordos and holding some snacks. From there, the path narrows into a winding hall, part of which is lined with spikes. A Scarfy guards the door.

The next area is a small courthouse overlooking a starry vista. Up ahead is a Superspicy Curry, which Kirby can use to clear a long hall of Star Blocks. The next door can be found in a small room at the right end of the path.

The next area begins on a small platform hanging over a void. The path continues upward into the night sky, past hanging platforms with enemies on them. The door can be found at the top, just under a crescent moon.

Kirby then finds himself in a small interior room, where Kracko Jr. appears and then promptly morphs into Kracko proper. He attacks by shooting a rotating wave of beams, swooping across the stage, and spawning Waddle Doos which can again be used as ammunition. Once hit six times, Kracko explodes, leaving the fourth Sparkling Star for Kirby to collect, and finish the level, leading into Mt. Dedede.

Secret areas

There is a secret door in the third area that leads to a room with a Mint Leaf on a small platform. The path continues to the right across a large chasm, with pillars holding several recovery items and a 1-Up. The door to the right leads to the next regular room.

There is another secret door, hidden inside the moon above the door leading to Kracko. Entering it leads to a room consisting of a long fall from the night sky, into the clouds, then to a platform at the bottom. Along the way, Kirby can collect three Maxim Tomatoes and two 1-Ups if he is agile enough.

Bubbly Clouds is the third stage of Spring Breeze in Kirby Super Star and Template:KSSU. It is a largely truncated version of the same level from Kirby's Dream Land and features different enemies and Copy Abilities, though it still preserves a certain lunar secret near the end.

Cut-scene

The intro cut=scene is slightly different between these games and Kirby's Dream Land. In this version, Kirby starts sneezing while standing atop the clouds, causing stars to fall each time. On the second sneeze, one bops him on the head, causing him to tumble into the cloud. This is similar to the cut-scene for Castle Lololo, which was mostly cut from Spring Breeze.

Trivia

  • This was the first level to have a secret doorway hidden in a crescent moon in the background, starting a trope that would recur in many subsequent Kirby games.
  • Bubbly Clouds is far and away the longest level in Kirby's Dream Land, and arguably the most challenging to navigate through.
  • The intro cut-scene for Bubbly Clouds in Spring Breeze is a fusion of the two cut-scenes for the Kirby's Dream Land scenes for Castle Lololo and this level.
