"It's the 3rd boss battle and is a bit of an endurance fight.
Alkie Kong is in a bit of a box and has a switch that allows him to drop some wooden kegs into the level.
You can climb down the ladder (watching out for the molty below) before the first set of kegs gets anywhere near you.
When you get to the bottom, head left. You will notice a piston-like pole under a chunk of the floor. The switch to the left will raise this floor. If the molty is on the piston, it too will be raised. You can use this to position the molty on whatever platform you feel would be easiest to avoid him on. Personally, I recommend leaving him at the bottom because the falling barrels don't touch the leftmost bit of the floor there, giving you more room to avoid the molty. You can also use the ladder and wait for it to walk under you.
After you have raised the piston, go back up the ladder you started on and jump across to the newly raised floor. The rolling kegs come in sets of 3, so keep that in mind when you time your movement.
Climb the next ladder and head right. (ignore the crate for now, you will use it later)
On the right is section of wood. you can hide under the first little beam, or stand on the beam, as far right as possibel, and the barrels will roll right over your head. When you get an opening get to the top and head right.
Hit the switch at the far right, then follow the next set of barrels to the bottom of the level.
Avoding the molties, jump your way to the right and climb the ladder. You will see that the switch you just flipped has raised the floor on this side so you can now jump over and hit the 3rd switch on this wall.
This switch will raise the roof of Alkie Kong's little box. Work your way back up to the top. Down the grey platform up there and get the bonus bottle, then climb back up again and grab the crate.
Throw the crate into Alkie's box for a sure hit. He will hit one of the switches in his pen and all the pistons will reset. Repeat the sequence 2 more times and he'll run away again."
