Mutant Night

An albino xenomorph-like creature must swim in the air and shoot bubbles at his enemies to accomplish...something.

Debugging Function#

Flip Dip Switch 2:8 (Service Mode) and Dip Switch 2:7 (the first "unused" dip switch in MAME's menu), then exit the service menu. This disables the game's object collision detection...which, unfortunately, also includes power-ups.

Hidden Credits#

There are two sets of credits hidden in the game's object graphics ROM. They're not really needed, since the game does have a proper credits sequence, but there you go.

I can't believe they cancelled The Shimada Program
The first set is at the start of the ROM, a short but incomplete list of staff members.

The second set, found near the end of the ROM, consists of two names written in Kanji: Shichijo Takashige and Hayashi Takashi.
