I welcome all submissions and comments!
These tips have been successfully tested by myself or another person. Please
mail me if you know any other tips or cheats to C64 games. If you can test them,
please do so before mailing them to me. In any case, state clearly whether they
are tested or not. Note that I am not including pokes, but Drago Fiser has got a WWW page with C-64
pokes. Niilo Paasivirta keeps
The Great C64 Cheats
Compendium which also has pokes and other cheats.
Some key-combinations have to be typed in. Others demand that you press and hold
all the listed buttons. I've tried to separate them by denoting a sequence of
keys to be typed in after one another with a ',' in between, i.e. C,H,E,A,T. If
the keys are to be held in at once, I've separated them with a '+', i.e.
C+H+E+A+T. Sometimes the order in which you press the keys are not important,
sometimes it is. Note to C64-emulator users: Make sure that the involved keys
aren`t mapped to a joystick or something. The emulators also doesn`t seem to
handle "hold-a-lot-of-keys-down-at-once" cheats very well.
