The boss battle takes place in a tall tower. Eggman scrolls up the screen, and you must escape him by jumping on a series of collapsible platforms. If a platform hits Eggman, he'll take damage. However, occasionally, he'll flip over and lob a spiked ball in your general direction. Eggman cannot be damaged while upside down. As Eggman takes damage, the stage will scroll upwards faster, Eggman's horizontal movement will be faster, and Eggman will use his chain-ball attack more frequently. After 8 platforms fall on Eggman (6 on the Easy setting), you'll win the battle and move onto Cyber Track.

Twinkle Snow is the fifth Zone of Sonic Advance 3. As with other Zones in this game, Twinkle Snow consists of three standard Acts followed by a boss Act.

Overview

Twinkle Snow is the customary winter-themed level, though despite its theme it possesses surprisingly few "snow" gimmicks apart from thick snow that slows characters down, much like in Ice Mountain Zone from Sonic Advance. The northern lights can be seen in the skies at the top of the Zone.

Minecarts offer a quick ride through portions of this Zone, along with ice machines that will suck up characters, then launch them in a frozen state (though freezing in this game is harmless). There are also catapults embedded on walls that the player can interact with by holding Down to make them sink slowly (and will sink faster if both characters are crouching on it), then release to be catapulted into the air. There is also a sideways variant of the catapults that the player must push to use it.

Water is present within the Zone, though it is mostly avoidable by taking a high route (this also helps avoid the bottomless pits, something many levels in Sonic Advance 3 have); however, Act 2 has a mandatory water section near the end, so the player will need to use air bubbles as necessary.
