It is complete. If you have additional information or comments please send mail.

Contents:
This hint file contains information about the following sections:
1.0 Ledge of Darkness - I
1.1

There are no platforms or pillars the first time. When the

voice says jump press on the up arrow. Down - Down arrow.
You should have the key depressed for the next jump or
slide as soon as you complete the previous one.

1.2

These are the moves that have worked for me every time.
Jump-Jump-Down-Jump-Jump-Jump-Jump-Down-Down-Jump.

2.0 Cyber Boogie - I

2.1

When the voice says to turn turn. Watch the indicator on

the right. Remember to press the down arrow to go up.

2.2

The sequence of events that I have seen are as follows

Left-Up-Right-Down-Fire-Right-Fire-Up-Left-Right

3.0 Crackin' the Code - I

3.1

Pick the button that is different than the rest.

Here are some hints from doors that have been solved.
3.1.a six, square, Y and 2
For instance, in the first example 6 wil be
the only even number, the square is the only shape
with an even number of sides, Y is the only non-vowel,
2 is the only number that is not a multiple of 7.
3.1.b : See code1.bmp
full square is bottom left hand corner &
quarter square in bottom right, T, moon, S
3.1.c : See code2.bmp
Rotate the shape. The two dots on top with the
square in the bottom right is incorrect.
A is the only vowel. The quarter circles with
the pieces missing is incorrect. The triangle is the
only shape with an odd number of sides.
3.1.d K, Y, Circle, 2
K is not a direction and a circle has no sides.
2 and Y are explained above.

4.0 Tune - In - I
4.1

Play the exact same sequence of notes / lights that the

keyboard in front of you does. Just watch the colors.

The middle tunnel seems to be clear all of the time. Follow

the path back from this tunnel to a platform. Move to that
platform and press fire(space bar). The rest is automatic.

6.0 Ledge of Darkeness - II

6.1

This section seems to be a repeat of Ledge of Darkness -I

except that it includes the pillars and platforms that are
talked about in the manual. Jump when the voice says to.

will be no voice now.
