The hard route of Star Fox 64 will take players to Aquas. It requires players to go through Sector Y, which is only accessible through a secret route in Corneria. This planet is completely covered in water and serves as the game's only underwater mission where players use the Blue Marine sub. Unlike Arwing missions, the Blue Marine has infinite homing torpedoes that also provide light to avoid hazards and enemies. Aquas ocean is so dark that the only way to see what's going on is to constantly launch torpedoes. The ocean floor is home to sunken ruins, rock outcroppings, and narrow canyons filled with electric jellyfish. Enemies include giant squids, clams, angler fish, sea snakes and suicidal exploding starfish. The boss at the end of Aquas is the monstrous clam monster Bacoon.
