=>Note: This was called Star Wing in Europe.
=>Secret Area: When in level 3-2, there should be two asteroids that are much
larger than the rest. Shoot the second giant asteroid on the right side of
the screen until it explodes. Chase the egg that emerges from the debris,
and when a bird hatches from the egg, fly into the bird's claws. You will
warp to the Out Of This Dimension area, where you will contend with lots of
paper products! If you make it to the giant slot machine, shoot the arm
until you hit triple Lucky 7's, get the jackpot, and win the secret ending.
=>Twin Blasters: If you fly through ALL of the archways in stage 1 of any of
the 3 levels, the Twin Blaster power-up will appear in the largest archway.
In level 1-2, before you reach the grey Supply Rings, look for three gold
asteroids in a triangle formation. Fire through the center of the triangle
and Twin Blasters will appear on the other side (or photon Twin Blasters,
if you already have Twin Blasters).
* Try flying through various circular shapes and formations to gain items.
=>Black Hole Warp: In the level 1-2 asteroid belt, before you reach the grey
Supply Rings, you will see three asteroid bars consisting of four grey
asteroids with an orange/gold asteroid in the center. Destroy the first
three bars by waiting until you are as close to them as possible, and then
blasting the gold asteroid in the center. If you are close enough when you
destroy them, a grey laughing asteroid will appear after you destroy the
third bar. Blast it and enter the Black Hole it reveals. Three exits (which
look like grey Supply Rings) are inside the Black Hole. The first goes to
level 2-4, the second to level 3-4, and the third to level 1-4.
=>The Whale: The whale will appear on the Amoeba stage of level 2, the one
ending with the spinning, long-armed boss (the stage right before Venom),
but only if you do not shoot any Blue Sting Rays. It appears just before
you reach the boss, and drops enough power ups to give you full energy, a
shield, double twin blasters, and 5 nova bombs.
=>Rotating Ships: On the continue screen, press CNTRL II: [SELECT]+B to change
into any enemy ship instead of the Arwing and move it around with the PAD.
