Hey!

I had finished Stealth Bastard Deluxe a couple of times over the years. I wanted to replay it again and this time decided to try to go for S-Ranks and collecting Helices at the same time. You don't have to do both at the same time but it seemed possible and a good challenge.

These videos can be used as S-Rank guides and as Helix location guides. Each Sector with its 10 Chambers is in a separate video.

I really hope you enjoy!

*3-8 is one of two chambers (8-4 is the other) that I couldn't get S-Rank while collecting the Helix. I was detected 5 times while you are allowed only 3. I think it's possible but super difficult- in short, you have to jump over the boss without getting detected, twice. I couldn't do it anywhere close to consistently. And you can't mess around much, since you don't have much time to spare. I hope someone someday will do this challenge in this level!

*8-4 is one of two chambers (3-8 is the other) that I couldn't get S-Rank while collecting the Helix. In my opinion, this challenge is not possible in 8-4, there just isn't enough time. For S-Rank you must finish this chamber in under 40 seconds, but it took me almost twice as long to get the Helix.

Here's a video of S-Rank without collecting the Helix in 8-4:

This was a fun challenge! If you manage to do this challenge on 3-8 or 8-4, please let me know!

If you have any questions, suggestions, criticisms, found any mistakes and so on, please let me know!

Thanks to the developers for making a good game and thank you for checking out my guide!
