StarTropics: Difference between revisions

** Level 8 of the first game is an odd aversion. During the section where Mike has to destroy the spaceship engine, there's a secret (but easy to find) room Mike can fall into with an infinitely respawning super-vitamin that restores his entire lifebar, so if he messes up he can just fall into a hole, get the vitamin and try again. Then after the engine is destroyed, there are a few screens full of infinitely respawning Zoda-spawn that are very generous when it comes to dropping life refilling items.

* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: Historical variant. In the second game, Mike meets Cleopatra, Sherlock Holmes, Leonardo Da Vinci, King Arthur, and Merlin in his travels through time.

* [[Nostalgia Level]]: The final level of the sequel is a recreation of the first level of the original game - including an undead version of the first game's first boss.

* [[One-Hit Kill]]: Physical contact with any of the bosses in the first game is instant death.
