* GoodBadBugs: There is a bug in the arcade version's handling of continues; normally continues are denoted in the score by resetting the score except for the ones place, and increments the ones place by one for each continue used. If you continue five times, for example, the ones place of your score will be 5. The arcade version resets the score entirely, so that if a continue is used, the score will ''always'' end in 1.
