Blower tips
Sent in by Mark
Whenever you are in a level that has those things that blow
air out, you can avoid dealing with the ones that blow air towards
the left, as long as it is connected to a wall or something. It
is difficult to jump up to the right, because the blower pushes
you further left. If you run toward the blower and jump so that
your head hits the bottom of the blower while moving to the
right, you will pop inside of the wall. If you then jump a few
times, you will be on top of the platform, totally avoiding the
annoying inconvenience of having the blower there. In level 3,
using this method in some places (I don't remember where) will
allow you to jump up within the wall up to the top, where you
simply run to the right, way above the screen, without any enemies
and thus you simply pass the level.

When you come to a tall springy poles that you can use to vault
yourself really high and far, vault off the pole and maneuver
yourself so you land directly on the top of the pole. If you do
this correctly, you'll bounce 10 times on the pole and collect a 1-up
for each bounce. When you stop bouncing and collecting 1-ups, get
defeated and repeat the process. You can build up to 255 lives. Do not
exceed 255 lives, however, or you will start back at one!
