If you have any comments, or would like to submit something, just e-mail it to me. Special Attacks Each Weapon has 2 special attacks (which are listed in the next section) just enter the proper button combination, and you will do it. One of the nice things about it is that you don't even have to have the weapon selected at the time. Whammies A whammie is when you hit the opponent with 2 or more weapons at the same time. There are many ways to do this but here are some examples. For a 1X whammy Select the Bruiser cannon, and enter the command for the Cow puncher, and just as your pressing Z, press R at almost the same time so they both fire at once. For a 3X whammy, select the Sky hammer mortar and enter the command for the Crate maker, and press R just as your finishing to fire a regular mortar at the exact same time, then switch to the Bruiser cannon, and preform the 1X whammy I listed above, if the 2 Mortar shots and the 2 Bruiser shots hit at the same time (this is Extremely difficult), you will get a 3X whammy. Whammys should do a little bit more damage than using both attacks seperate. Quick start If you tap the gas twice, you will jump into first gear, and start accelerating faster. When using a slower car, it also helps to do this right before a jump to go a tad further. Protecting objects In quest mode, if you are supposed to be protectins something, what you want to do, is to stay away from it, the enemies won't attack it unless you go near it, and they destroy it trying to hit you. Being Flipped If you get flipped over, just hold left or right to flip back, sometimes if you can flip over in mid air so you land on your tires. Stalling If you get stalled, just hold the gas and the car should start soon after. ------- Weapons ------- Here is the complete list of the secret moves for the weapons.
