· Scoring trick: On the 1st screen, running against the right side of the screen earns points. This also works on the 2nd screen, on either side. 1st screen tips – run diagonally UP and DOWN against the top-right side of the screen (picture #1) and set the Right Difficulty switch to A to increase your speed and earns more points. {Ben Valdes}
·
It’s possible to jump the crevice (on the
first screen) twice, from left-to-right. It’s
extremely hard, but it can be done. It’s also possible (and easier) to jump
back right-to-left. {Scott Stilphen}
·
BUG: Fall off the top ledge after
finishing 1st screen (while it’s scrolling down – picture #2).
You then won’t be able to jump on the 2nd screen (but you
can walk onto the lily pads and ape heads – maybe even the center barriers?).

·
BUG: Jump
to the right from the spot shown in picture #3 and hold the joystick RIGHT - your character will stay “stuck” on the side of the mountain until
you let go. {Scott Stilphen}
·
BUG: Collision detection is a bit off.
Coconuts often pass though you without harm, or it may appear you’re
not standing on something when you are (picture #4).
·
BUG: With
a few systems, the game may inexplicably RESET itself upon reaching
the second screen. {Mark
·
FRYING: May
reward up to 600,000 points! {Scott Stilphen}
