HIDDEN MESSAGE:
These are activated by entering a
certain character on the
high score table. Most
of these functions will show a three character code after that. These are the
initials of the people in the Odyssey 2 games group at that time (the credits so
to speak), but they have no effect on the game:
+
- “RLC”
(for Robert L. Cheezem)
–
- “SRO”
(for Sam R. Overton)
*
-
“JMB”
(for Jim Butler)
/
- “AWP”
(for Alan Pearson)
. -
“REX” (for
Rex Battenberg)
?
- “RSH”
(for Robert Harris)
=
- Displays
a 3-digit code (based on an algorithm using your score) that was to be used to
verify high scores (instead of sending in a photo for a contest, for example).
Marketing never understood the
concept, so it was never used.
· To turn the Voice sound effects off, hold 3 or 7 and push the joystick.
