Fighting the AT-AT walker boss
Sent in by Jason Bergeron
When fighting the AT-AT walker boss use your lightsaber and position
yourself just on his neck right behind the head and hold the block button,
you will bounce his lasers back at him and eventually he will die! This helped
me beat him without getting hit.
Secret ledge
Sent in by Jacob Frederick
On Level 14, if you fall down the ledge that doesn't have an elevator and
keep to the right, you will find a secret ledge that if you use detonators,
you will get free lives, big hearts, blaster power-ups, and health swords.

Lots of power ups
Use the password NGM5JB to reach the Carbon Freezing
Chamber. Play through this level until you reach the pit.
Fall off the ledge into the pit and jump on one of the freeze
lamps. Descend by jumping from lamp to lamp. When you reach
the bottom, head to the right until you discover a secret room
(you'll see a spider web-like figure in the background). Shoot all
around the mysterious figure to reveal hidden grenades, 1-Ups, a
Health Sword, Blaster power-ups and Hearts. After you've grabbed
all the goods, jump off the ledge and die. You'll begin again just
above the secret room. Repeat until you've maxed out on power-ups.
Hidden room
In the Carbonite chamber (Han Solo), at the first deep drop-off,
if you climb down the left side jumping on the protruding jets
as you go down you will come to a hidden room where there
are grenades, 1ups and gun-ups. After you leave the room you
do not have to die to get back to the top. Just climb up, the same
way you went down, jumping from jet to jet.
1-up loop
Here's an easy 1-up loop in the first level. When you've reached
the area where Luke rides the Tauntaun, go forward until you
reach the breakaway bridge (the one with the big Heart under the
arch). In front, you'll see a deep spiked pit. Step off the ledge and
fall into the pit, pushing left as you fall. You'll land on an invisible
platform. Jump straight up until you're sure you're on the top platform.
Next, move to the left until you fall and then push right as you fall. You'll
land on another invisible platform. You'll also reveal and collect an
invisible 1-Up that was sitting on the platform. Continue to edge left off
the platforms (eight in all from the top), pushing right as you fall each
time. You should collect a total of four 1-Ups. After you've collected
all four, drop onto the spikes and die. Repeat this until you've got all
the lives you need.
