'''Looping Growth Garden''' is a level in Chapter 3 of ''[[Make a Good Mega Man Level: Episode Zero]]''. A strange and alien jungle created by [[Tier X (MaGMML2)|Tier X]], this level is populated with insectoid enemies and conveyors. The most notable inhabitant, however, are the [[Mutant Vine]]s; strange, Piranha Plant-esque plants that move in square patterns. Touching any part of them, even their vines, will damage [[Zero]], and nothing he has can harm them. If the [[Icicle Chip]] has been collected, though, the [[Blank Drive]]'s ice shield can render them completely harmless, making the level considerably easier to beat.

==Strategy==
'''The Short Version:''' Equip Icicle Chip, use Blank Drive. Marvel as the level snaps in two.

'''The Long Version:''' After a few [[Twin Roader]]s and [[Heli Buton]]s at the start, the first Mutant Vines are seen circling platforms. One circles a space next to a high ledge, which can only be reached with the Double Jump. This leads to a shortcut filled with Mutant Vines circling over pits, requiring careful timing (or the Icicle Drive) to avoid being hit in midair and falling down, but a [[CD]] lies at the end. Without it, Zero is forced to take a longer path populated with [[Nibul]]s and Twin Roaders, but with less dengerously-placed Mutant Vines. [[Pierrobug]]s appear after the first checkpoint, but the [[Z-Saber]] can be used to bypass their shielded state. [[Conveyor]]s also start to appear, some of which have Mutant Vines close by; the former can potentially send Zero into a pit if he takes damage while standing on one.

Eventually, a slide passage appears next to a ladder, between a conveyor and a pit of (non-lethal) spikes. Accessing this passage requires a precise airdash, and it may take a few tries to perform without falling into the spikes, but behind it is a shortcut and another CD, guarded by a very fast Mutant Vine. The remainder of the stage follows the same pattern of platforming around groups of vines while avoiding pits and enemies. Notably, [[Yambow]]s and Heli Butons will try surprise attacks, with both enemies appearing without warning once Zero is close enough. The last hazards of the level before the [[Energy Element]] are a pair of Mutant Vines circling over a pit, but with one well-timed airdash (or a leisurely-timed airdash with the Icicle Drive), they can be safely avoided.

|'''Dr. Wily:''' Looping Growth Garden?
Err... I lost track of you. You're in a garden? Where, exactly?

'''Zero:''' In space.

'''Dr. Wily:''' Plants don't grow in space, stupid.

|Looping Growth Garden?
Seems like that place has some mutant plants. They'll loop around in a single area endlessly.

You can't kill them, but you might be able to bypass them with certain weapons.

|'''(CD #1):''' Make sure to bring some kinda midair boost thing for this one! It's near a high ledge!
Just follow that suspicious high ledge, and use that midair boost well to get that CD!

'''(CD #2):''' For this one, you gotta make a dangerous dash across a spike pit! Just be on the lookout for pointy things!

Make it in and all you have to do then is time your dash REALLY well! Be careful!!

|'''Knives:''' Hmm... All the chompy plants and stuff are cool, but there's too much space pollen there.
And common knowledge says that if pollen's from space, it's twice as bad.

'''Zero:''' What are you even talking about?

'''Knives:''' You don't know? Man, you went through here to get an Energy Element, didn't ya think about it?

Think about it. It's a space forest thingy, right?? Kind of a simulation??

The pollen, by basic logic, has to be more deadly. So that place is a no-go.

==Trivia==
* The Nibuls in this level lack their toxin effect, as Zero's greater mobility compared to [[Mega Man]] caused a range of problems.
* Twin Roaders are the only enemies in Looping Growth Garden who aren't themed after insects. However, they ''vaguely'' resemble beetles if one squints a bit.
