Just jump around until you find an opening above you. Repeat.

...it never occurred to me to check the map. I spent like half an hour trying to get through there! I found the path by throwing explosives around until they lit it up.

 I have a natural intuition for dark areas. I somehow know what developers would do when placing invisible platforms.

 Then again I'm sure everybody who has played La-Mulana to a point has developed that ability.

I highly recommend avoiding getting the Snake upgrade if you want an easy time in the normal ending, or versus certain bosses.

Specifically:  If you did NOT trade for the machine gun, and you did pick up the fireball (why wouldn't you?), then when the Gaudi in the labyrinth shop asks if he can see your weapons...say no!

Snake pro:  It can shoot through walls, which is awesome.  It has a spread beam, which makes taking out normal enemies pretty fun.
Snake con:  Some barriers can still stop it, and its spread-out pattern means that it has a REALLY hard time getting through to specific bosses (such as, oh, every single boss of the non-Hell endgame).

On your first playthrough I would suggest very much yes.  It makes you more mobile for the majority of the game, your firing speed isn't dependent on button mashing, and it's a pretty darn solid weapon overall.  Your other options are a couple different upgrades, and the upgrade to the Polar Star is kind of spoily because it's pretty neat to explore and find on your own.

But yes.  If you're not going for the ultra-ending, I would say that the Machine Gun is absolutely the way to go.

and you did pick up the fireball (why wouldn't you?)
Actually, you HAVE to get the Fireball, since Chaco doesn't tell you about Jellyfish Juice if you don't have it. ("My that's a dangerous thing you have there.")
I've already checked, the Polar Star, the Fireball, and the Blade are the only weapons that you are required to get.


Curly's Machine Gun is worth trading for(though Spur is better). At level 3 you can fly with it.
