** YMMV ([[CaptainObvious obviously]]), as the voice acting to me was terrible, the "personalities" stereotypical, and the animation shoddy. That fan-made theme is cool though.

** And what about the fellow from ''Sombreros''? Some thieves steal a bunch of hats in such a rush that they drop them all over the place. This prompts our hero to pick up a gun, walk down the middle of a road into oncoming traffic, shoot a bunch of innocent cars (''[[AmericanPsycho which explode]]'') for getting in his way, and try to shoot the unarmed culprits dead while they try to frantically escape his line of sight, all to get said hats back.

* GoodBadBugs: Glitches to get around the glitches. There are many of them, some of which ''have'' to be used to complete the level.
** In ''Manchester'', you can't pass a certain point because of flames being in a way. However, you can fall through the floor and walk past a huge stack of note blocks.
** These are also found in ''Underground''. While walking into the walls is sort of amusing, the ability to fire ''through'' the walls (properly utilized) takes the game all the way to "genuine fun" territory.
** In ''Dedant'', the player can [[DenialOfDiagonalAttack only shoot upwards]]. If enemies reach the bottom row, death is almost guaranteed unless you hide at the edges of the screen where no enemy or their projectiles (not even the homing ones) can get you.
** Aries (in the 2nd level) and Hercules can jump in mid-air by pressing jump just after attacking. This trick carried over into ''Cheetahmen 2''.
** In many games, {{bottomless pits}} actually make the character [[WrapAround reappear at the upper side of the screen]]. In ''Lollipops'', attacking in mid-air while falling will reset the falling height and cause the character to reappear in the sky, allowing you to skip a few sections of the map.
** In several games, the number of enemies spawning can be reduced by firing a lot of projectiles or not killing current enemies on screen. Often it's also possible to scroll enemies off the screen which is extremely useful in Haunted Halls which stops the enemies spawning behind from getting you.
** In Chill Out, when jumping constantly, edges of the screen can be used to get up without using ladders. This helps to get up and shoot the enemies relatively safely.
** In Slashers, you can walk around the enemies so you don't even have to fight them.
** Certain actions in ''Fuzz Power'' make the main character unable to do its attack, but in return, make him invulnerable.
