Cheat Codes/Hints
Alternate Invincibility Cheat
This glitch will work in any room that has a guard that paces in front of a computer console. The guard is needed for the glitch to work. The trick is to enter the computer console while overlapping the guard. You may get shot a few times attempting this. Once the guard is between you and the console and you've entered the menu, input the suicide code. The zap that kills you will not hit you, but the guard instead (won't kill him). And you're invincible. As with the other invincibility cheat, the pause button will not work, so no switching characters. Enjoy!
Continue game play
Press 1 + 2 + Up after losing all lives.
Defeating The Dragon
After you exit the Computer Room, you will face a Dragon. To defeat him, shoot him in the mouth approximately twenty times. You will know that you are hitting him, because he will flash yellow.
Note: After the dragon is destroyed, re-enter the computer room, and re-input the suicide command. This will allow you extra seconds to escape. In addition, it may be usefull to make a map of the exact way out, so you won't waste time getting lost!
Errata
Do not enter the suicide code in room C-4 as instructed in the book. If you do, you will die!
Extra Messages
If you enter the suicide code in rooms D2 and G4 you will get a special message.
Glitch: Invincibility
Get in a room that has a guard that patrols in front of a computer console. Enter the computer console while you are overlapping the guard. Note: You may get shot a few times while attempting this. When the guard is between you and the console and you have entered the menu, enable the suicide code. If done correctly, the guard will be zapped instead of you, but will not get killed. You will be invincible, but the game can no longer be paused.
Before entering room C-3, get the Zillion Power from room A-6 to be able to open the containers. Then, enter room C-3 and find the elevator next to an energy barrier. Get in the elevator, then step out and touch the energy barrier while pressing Dow. Repeat this until your energy is gone. If done correctly, the bottom of the elevator will fall out, and you will become invincible. Note: You will no longer be able to pause the game.
Hint: Avoiding death
Do not enter the suicide code in room C-4 as the book instructs, or you will lose a life.
Hint: Defeating the Dragon
After leaving the computer room you will encounter a dragon. Shoot him in the mouth about twenty times. He will flash yellow when you hit him. After defeating the dragon is destroyed, return to the computer room, enter the suicide command again to get a few extra seconds to escape. Making a map to the exit will also help save time.
Invincibility
In room C-3, you can become invincible. Before you go into room C-3, collect the Zillion Power from room A-6. This will allow you to open the containers that are present. After you have the Zillion Power, enter the room and you will see an elevator next to an energy barrier. Get in the elevator, reach out and touch the energy barrier, while pressing down on the Directional Pad. Repeat this, until your energy drops to zero. If this is done correctly, the bottom of the elevator will fall out, and you will be invincible.
NOTE: Once invincible, the pause button will do no good, which means you will not be able to change characters.
