Super shield: Press C, A, B, A, B
during the level preview (while the energizer beams in and before
the player is beamed into the level). One SuperShield will be
added to inventory. This code may not be enabled during a bonus
round.
Triple attack: Press B, A, C(2), B, A
during the level preview (while the energizer beams in and before
the player is beamed into the level). Thirty rounds of Triple
Attack power will be added. This code may not be enabled during
a bonus round.
Rapid fire: Press B, C, A, C, A,
C during the level preview (while the energizer beams in
and before the player is beamed into the level). The player will
receive thirty rounds of Rapid Fire power. This code may not be
enabled during a bonus round.
Ultra power-up: Press A, C(2), A, B(2)
during the level preview (while the energizer beams in and before
the player is beamed into the level). This code gives the player
a full power-up on all normal abilities except for Turbo, which
is doubled. Every time the player picks up any power-up, double
Turbo will be regained until the round ends or the player is killed.
This code may not be enabled during a bonus round.
Blood feud: Press A(2), C, A, B during
the level preview in a two player game (while the energizer beams
in and before the player is beamed into the level) The words
"Blood Feud" will appear to confirm correct code entry.
No additional drones are launched after the initial three for
the preview, and the boss is never launched. The last player alive
wins the match and gets the points for the "Boss Kill"
for a normal level. Each round lasts forty-five seconds. If time
runs out, both players will lose a life. A new round begins each
time a player is killed until one of the players has no lives
left. This code may not be enabled during a bonus round.
Play as the boss: Press C, B(2), A(2), C
on controller two during the level preview of a single player
game (while the energizer beams in and before the player is beamed
into the level). The words "P2 Be The Boss" will appear
to confirm correct code entry. In a level with drones, the non-active
player controls a single drone as if it were a player character.
The controlled drone is very bright compared to the other drones.
Control switches to a new drone if it dies or if the non-active
player presses the C. When the boss is launched, the non-active
player is in control of it. Note that turbo can be used but it
slowly eats away at the Boss' hit points. This code may not be
enabled during a bonus round.
Game settings: Press LS + C during the demo loop to
access the game settings (difficulty and blood), as well as game
credits and hardware tests for the D-Pads.
Hint: Attacking Bosses: Hold Turbo when attacking to knock the Boss
back when using a missile attack. All attacks do double damage
when holding Turbo. Press Shield + Turbo
to produce a "turbo shield" that blasts all creatures
in the immediate vicinity.
Hint: Turbo charge: The most effective attack is the "turbo charge",
which is accomplished by Turbo running at your opponent and hitting
attack just outside of close attack range. This will knock both
boss and human targets further across the screen than a regular
close attack, as well as doing massive damage.
Hint: Better views in mazes: To get a better view in one of the maze levels, Turbo
jump (press Turbo + Jump at the same time). This
will zoom out the screen and provide and overview of the maze.
While in the maze bonus round, any health turbo, or shield energy
that is lost is returned at the end of the round.
Level hints:
The Sand Lure your character's opponents into the mines to damage or
destroy them.
The Reactor Jump into the water and shoot at the boss. Your character
can not be hit as easily when in the water. Note that damage will
slowly accrue from the water. The missiles can be jumped over
using a regular jump.
The Volcano Once the floater drones start strafing your character, they
can not change direction for a while. The boss will not walk through
the fire that appears when a player stands too long on one of
the rock "patches".
The Cyborgs Destroy the cannons in the walls for extra power-ups (SuperShield,
RapidFire, and TriAttack). This can be accomplished by running
into them with the shield. Save all of the humans as quickly as
possible, otherwise their stasis capsules will turn red and they
will become "super" cyborgs that run at turbo speed
and can knock down the player.
The Showdown Jump on the second level and hide behind the energizer while
shooting it. Doing this will allow your character to avoid fighting
the floater drones (which are very tough to defeat on this level)
while attempting to destroy the energizer. The Semag boss is most
easily defeated by forcing him against a wall and continually
hammering him with a close attack.
