Bomb Jack
Submitted by: rickHH
Hints:
------
An important piece of information to remember is that you can pick
up the bombs in a certain order to get the maximum points. If you
pick up most of the bombs while their fuses are lit, you get the
following bonuses:
Bombs Bonuses
--------------------
20 - 10,000
21 - 20,000
22 - 30,000
23 - 50,000
So of course, you'll want to try to get 23 each time. (This is of
course, VERY difficult!) The P (Power) coin appears after every
ninth bomb is collected. The points value of the P coin ranges from
100 (Blue) to 2000 (Silver). Since the color changes each time BJ
jumps, you can control the bonus level by making small jumps until
the coin turns silver.
Extra credit:
-------------
The B (Bonus) coin appears every 5,000 points, and advances the bonus
multiplier by 1. There is a maximum of 5 B coins per level.
Mechanical bird:
----------------
Picking up the S (Special) coin awards one free credit. It will also
take you to the next level automatically. You can control where the
mechanical bird appears by holding the joystick in the opposite
direction.
Example: Hold the joystick to the right as soon as the round starts
and the mechanical bird appears on the left of the screen. If the
stick is held diagonally, the bird appears in the opposite corner.
