Jet Force Gemini

Juno can walk on fire (lava), Vela can swim, and Lupus can hover.

All the secret deathmatch characters in Jet Force are unlocked by touching the secret Totems hidden throughout the game, except for the Cyborg Ant (see below) and the powered-up versions of Vela, Juno and Lupus, which become available once you have received your powers in the single player mode.

To get a different title screen, beat the game.

When you are out of machine gun ammo, kill an enemy with a pistol. Switch weapons to the one that is empty or low. Next pick up his gun. The bullets will now be compatible with the machine gun! As long as the equipped weapon is not the pistol or the shotgun, this will work.

This cheat turns all the enemy drones into stick figures with big pants. "Ants into Pants" becomes available in the Cheats menu (located under Options) as soon as you have collected 300 enemy heads.

When reaching a section with small flying objects, run behind a tree and repeatedly run sideways to avoid getting hit.

Any veteran Mario or Banjo-Kazooie player will have already figured this one out. Falling from high places causes your character to take damage, but you can break your fall with the help of Lupus' rocket paws or Vela and Juno's jetpacks (only if you have fuel, in the case of Vela and Juno).

Not really a gameplay tip – but this feature isn't mentioned in the manual, so we figured we should include it. There is no need to go to the Character Screen if you need to quickly change characters when selecting a new world to fly to. You can change your character on the map screen, too. Simply use the C Buttons to switch the player icons in the corner until you've got the character you want

Where: Tawfret, Bridge (from Gimlet)
This handy tool lets you open the heavy trap doors on Tawfret and Walkway. To get it, bring the pants back to Gimlet.
