Tiny Town is the second stage of Reddy Land in Kirby: Canvas Curse. All three areas of the stage display a surreal pastel colored design. The layouts between all rooms of each area are interconnected via clear tubes. It is possible to play through Tiny Town first, as the stages of Reddy Land can be done in any order; however the stage appears as a selectable icon between Plant Plain and Ravine Road. Following the difficulty curve of Plant Plain, these areas remain simple to traverse; although more use of hazards, contact-activated objects, and ink are employed.
Area 1
The first area of Tiny Town is mostly a direct path from room to room. This area appears in the Line Trial mode of Rainbow Run after Reddy Land is unlocked. Enemies found in this area include Waddle Dees, Bouncies, and Bronto Burts; none of which offer a copy ability. This area introduces the contact activated checkpoint marker after the third room. The medal can be found in the final room by dropping down to the lowest point of the floor. This final room is also the only room of the area in which ink must be used to reach the goal.
Area 2
Area 2 hosts Canvas Curse's first use of spikes as a terrain hazard. The first set of spikes appear on the ceiling, but misuse of a rainbow line in the rooms with cannons can smash Kirby directly into them. The cannon puzzle works similarly to a tour puzzle, utilizing one-way paths. The Bronto Burts between cannons are harmless to Kirby when he is fired from the cannon. The majority of the cannons will fire automatically after Kirby is in, but the larger rotating cannons only fire when touched by the stylus. As the replacement for Mid Boss battles, a locked room in the stage, has several spear wielding Waddle Dees. A touch cannon will appear and blast Kirby through the Metal Blocks.
The medal for the area can be seen but not accessed until the orange Action Block is removed by pressing the corresponding switch in Rift Ruin. One room contains a 1Up, and a moderate amount of Point Stars can be obtained.
Area 3
This area also serves as the Time Trial mode of Rainbow Run. The area is visually similar to the others. The Burning copy ability can be obtained from any of the Bobos. The area is small and offers no alternate paths; however the rooms do criss-cross the map and tunnels employ more turns than the other areas.
The medal is found between two sets of floor spikes, but easily reached without taking damage. Each room has point stars that can be collected by drawing rainbow lines following their path. The final room contains a 1Up on the left side of a Bouncy trio, blocking the exit door.
Trivia
- Paletto Polis uses the same style, background, and icon as Tiny Town.
