You asked for it and so here t is: the cry. Min. II supercode that will
give yo access to all levels(including bonus levels) except the ZERO
level:

Enter the password KIMI but don't press the A button to start the game.
Instead hold down Option 1 and Option 2 buttons and press B.
You will hear a sound like a machine gun and you'll see the first level
(Down in the Dirt) appear on the scren.
Press A to skip ahead to the next level or press B to move back through
the list.
When you see the level you want to play, press any direction on the
control pad to start the game.

There. That's it!  Please dont say it doesn't work because I have
doubled checked it! If it doesn't work, then your buttons are stuck!

Gee, I don't know, Dionicio, what _is_ this newsgroup for?

Thanks!  Now I can tell my wife why I spend all this time reading a.g.l.
Great!  I wondered myself.

>We can go on tlaking about how bad atari is, but

Thanks again!  I was wanting to read more, and now you've given us all
the green light to do so!  

>if you want change, write atari!

Gotcha. Thanks for the tip.

Whatever you tell me to.

I'll corroborate that and add a couple things...

While looking at the title of the level, pressing option 1 makes the
pick-up-an-icon sound.  Don't see any other effect.

After you complete a level or are destroyed, A and B will continue to
move up and down in the levels.

Scores counted up at the end of a level are not added to your total score
(which is always zero.)

Completing level 150 takes you to the cool raining end screen, and that
appears to be that. (Final Score of 0 :-)


I had the notion of trying to play this game straight through, starting
from ZERO, hitting all the bonus levels and seeing how many points I could get.

I quit on level 69 with 19,374,110 points.  Part of the reason I lost heart
was that I messed up and missed the bonus exit for bonus level 10.  That and
the fact I had been playing for 10 hours.  Any other fools out there?  One
thing I noticed was that I got a Super Bonus of 1,000,000 points somewhere
around level 8.  Anyone else see this?
