BART VS THE SPACE MUTANTS (?) (?)

Type 'COWABUNGA' on the title screen for infinite lives. Also try typing 'EAT MY SHORTS' on the title screen. To skip a level, type 'SHEEP IN A GROUP WEARING HATS' during play.

When you have the whistle, stand by the last window of the Springfield Retirement Home and blow it. Now a guy should appear and start throwing lots of money at you, so grab it and go on a shopping spree!

General Hints:

There are a few hidden extras to find throughout the level, such as extra lives and more money. There are usually hidden in bins and bushes. To find them, just jump onto them. However, you need to be careful, since some bushes contain bees which have a lethal sting!

You can get extra help by defeating end-of-level gurdians via the disgused aliens throughout the levels. To spot them, put on your X-ray specs. If a person seems to have a wibbly head with tentacles sprouting out of it, jump on top of them and they will drop a ball. Pick up the ball and get a letter, if you manage to spell out the name of a family member, that person will then appear at the end of the level to help you beat the guardiant. For eg: If Maggie appears she throws rocks above your head which you can deflect towards the bady along with your nomal shots.

If you miss one or two of the targets, don't panic! If you notice the sign near the cinema, this should give you a clue. Watch out for the timer and go to the cinema when it reaches 400 and 200. At these time a person will come out of the doors. Just spray them to knock your target counter down.

Complete solution:

Begin by facing Bart to the right and do a big spring jump off the bin to collect the Krust bonus. Walk on by the cinema (get the timimg right past the creatures) until you get to Moe's. Jump up onto the ledge off the first window and up to the next ledge. Do a long jump left to collect the spray can, but watch you don't hit the mutants in front of the poster!

Go to the right of the poster and face left to spray it until it changes colour. Carry on to the left and spray the bin, then head right. Go past Moe's until you reach the phone booth. Jump up on the booth and right onto the washing line. Walk along the line so that the washing falls onto the purple object below.

Jump across onto the wondow and collect the sray can. Drop down and spray the bin, then head left and jump over the nasty under the washing line to get another Krusty bonus. Head back to the right and jump over the three nasties past the bin you just sprayed. Carry on and enter Tool World. Buy a key and a wrench, then leave the shop walk behind the Fire Hydrant and use the wrench so that the water washes the paint off the awning, then spray the hydrant. Jump onto the window ledge, then onto the door and finally jump up to spray the flowers - you have to spray them while you are jumping.

Carry onto the right and enter Mel's Novelty Hut. Buy one cherry bomb and spend all but two of your coins on rocket, then leave the shop. Jump onto the sill, then onto the door and then jump up to spray the flowers (it takes a bit of pacience). Continue right, under the monster and collect the extra life.

Go right, into Toys `N' Stuff and buy a whistle and a magnet. Jump onto the edge and onto the door before leaping up to spray the flowers. Go right, jump over the alien and collect the spray can.

Walk right until you get to the bin (if you want you can knock the ball up in the air to hit the paint can, but it's a bit tricky). Spray the bin then jump onto it to get the top windows. Jump across to the paint pot so that it spills, then carefully make your way past the nasty. Slowly drop off the left-hand side so that you fall onto the canopy above the door, then jump up and spray the flowers.

Go to the right until you reach the pet shop, jump up onto the window ledge, onto the door and back across the gap to sray the pot. Postion yourself in the top left corner of the window and drop your cherry bomb, if you are in the right potion, the bomb should hit the bird cage and free the bird. Watch out for the dog that appears!

Walk up and jump on to the grass to make a puple policeman appear. Spray him blue and then quickly run away. Next up walk along the statue and fire a rocket to make the bird fly away.

Jump over the barrier onto the skateboard and immediately slow down to halt. Push up diagonally while pressing fire to get to the top of the path and then accelerate. Jump over the dogs and the blue alien, then wham along to the end, but watch out for the Skate Punk!

Leap over the barrier to get back on foot and carry on walking right. Dodge the nasties and spray the fountain as you pass. Go under the aliens in front of the Bowling Hall and fire a rocket at the sign.

Continue to the right, spray the fountain and dodge the alien, then carry on to the retirement home. When you see a purple window, fire a rocket at it to make the purple blind lift up. Carry onto the main enterance and watch out for the nasties as you fire a rocket at the next purple window. Now check your rocket supply.If you've still got some left you're all right. If you need more on the other hand, you'll have to go back to Mel's Novelty Hut. To do this, stand in front of the retirement home and use the key. This should transport you back to the housenear Moe's Tavern. Go to Mel's, get some rockets and use the key at the home to get back to the retirement home. Go to the right and fire a rocket at the next purple window. If you've done everything right, this should be you last target and you will be given a message telling you to go right to the guardian.

To beat the big baddy, keep firing at him and jump the bombs that he throws. With a bit of luck you'll be able to duff him and reach the second level.
