- INVASIVE ACTION by Jason Kelk / TMR / Cosine. Hacked by Vinny Mainolfi on 27/08/10:

  • Load the game and freeze it using an Action Replay Cart (or any other POKE entering device)

  • Press 'E' to enter POKES

    • POKE 2590,1

    • POKE 2598,1

  • Restart the game

  • Play the game and go all the way up to the top of the screen - as if you are going to fly off. The ending kicks in when you get there! This is because $0A1E compares the amount of screens that you go up (current set at 5) and the first poke sets it to 1, which means you only have to go up 1 screen. As for the second poke, it changes location $0A26, which is the compares the level you are on to 9 and then jumps to the ending. If you change the count to compare it to 1, then it means that you only need to complete 1 level to see the ending! CRACKING!
