Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel (Genesis)

Zero the Kamikaze Squirrel is a spin-off series from Aero the Acro-Bat, starring one of the enemies found in the latter. It's basically what you'd expect a ninja flying squirrel game to be.

Unused Music#

Two tracks go completely unused and can be found on the sound test.

Track 10, titled "bozarro2" on the sound test, is quite upbeat and overly-repetitive. This song is a slightly remixed version of "Battle with Alter Aero" from Aero the Acro-Bat 2.

Track 11, titled "icaro" on the sound test, is quite calm, but doesn't have much diversity, and drags on for a bit. This track is a remixed version of "Performer's Dungeon (Act 1)" from Aero the Acro-Bat 2.

Level Select#

During gameplay, pause and press A,C, Right|link=, A,'B (ACRAB). Press Up and Down to select a stage, and press Start START to advance to the selected stage.

Alternatively, you can pause and press Right|link=,Up,B,A,Down,Up,B,Down,Up,B (RUBADUBDUB) to bring up the level select, which additionally gives you unlimited lives, energy, and shurikens.

To return to this screen, you can simply pause and press A+B+C.

In the SNES version, the first code is different and the level select's text is placed on top of the game's paused frame.
