As the players progress in Yooka-Laylee, they will notice that the game becomes harder. In order to survive every challenge, they need to find Butterfly Boosters. However, these boosts are limited and only one can be found in every world.
The first Butterfly Booster is acquired when players start their tutorial of Yooka-Laylee. Before they reach the Hivory Towers, they will be able to catch the booster. They will see a pipe on a rock wall and they need to jump to it before jumping to a rock. After that, they need to climb up to get the booster.
The second one is found by expanding the Tribalstack Tropics first. Once finished, they need to go to a ramp that will bring them to Monument Mountain. It will lead to a maze and once passed, a booster should be available, as per GearNuke.
Just like the Tribalstack Tropics, Moodymaze Marsh must be expanded also. They need to enter a new place with floating logs. When they reach the end, they will see Mr. Blowy. Players need to use Bubble Walk and Sonic 'Splosion to bring the block up from the water and to get the Butterfly Booster inside.
Players need to expand Galleon Galaxy first before they can even get the Butterfly Booster. After the expansion, they need to go to the starting area and head left. They will see a small planet and enter it through the door. A maze needs to be completed before they can get the booster.
In Capital Cashino, they must go to the center of the world to look for the Butterfly Booster. They will be needing Flappy Flight to get the booster underneath the chandelier. However, if they do not possess it, they can use the Mollycool to transform themselves.
The last Butterfly Booster is obtained once players have defeated the boss in Icymetric Castle. Once done, they need to head to the first room in the castle. By using their Glide ability, they need to pass the moving platforms to get their booster.
Once they have all the Butterfly Booster in Yooka-Laylee, they cannot die easily and increase their chances of defeating their enemies. In addition, the boosters will help them finish different challenges waiting for them in the game.
