Sound Test#

Get a game over and when the game over tune plays (or right before it ends), hold S + C + D + T until the sound test appears. You can also press the Spacebar while holding down those keys to end the tune early and skip to the sound test.

Use the Left and Right keys to select the sound number, the Down key to play it, and the Up key to stop the music. To exit the sound test, push either Space, Shift or Z.

Nos. 1-5, 7-12, 25-33 and 35 are BGMs; Nos. 6, 13-24 and 34 are sound effects.

Easter Egg#

Hold down the Select key on the MSX keyboard when getting a game over but before the standard game over tune plays to get a completely different game over theme. This song is No. 35 in the sound test, while the standard game over theme is No. 4.

Adjust Colors#

While playing, hold the Select key and press Stop. You'll see some numbers appear in the score area. Use the directional keys to increase or decrease the numbers which in turn will modify the colors in the entire game.

Adjust Screen Centering#

While playing, press the Stop key to pause the game. Now, hold the Select key and press the directional pad to adjust the screen centering.
