Secret Easter Eggs!
To enable the Easter Eggs, press the P key, which will PAUSE the game.
With CAPS LOCK enabled, type FORTYTWO (all one word) and press ENTER. A small screen will appear briefly which reads "EASY MODE ON". After typing a command, press ENTER and then P again to unpause. Watch what happens!
Here are the Easter Eggs and what they will do:
CTRL-D: Refills Arkhan's life gauge and decreases an opponent's life to 1 (This command can be issued while actually playing the game.)
You must type the word followed by pressing ENTER.
BIGFOOT: Enlarges his feet
BIGHEAD: Enlarges his head
BAFFE: Big hands
DWARF: Shrink Arkhan down to pintsize
MUCHBETTER: Arkhan relieves himself
NORMAL: Back to normal
