[comp.sys.mac.games] Arkanoid cheat wanted

jkd@eleazar.dartmouth.edu (John K. Dean) (05/26/90)

I read somewhere that by typing something like "ArkMagic" at a certain stage
in Arkanoid it is possible to precipitate power capsules from the brickwork
just by typing the analagous key (ie. L for laser, etc.).

Q:  What exactly do you type and when?

SPOILERS FOLLOW

Type DSIMAGIC (all caps) while you are playing.  DSI stands for Discovery
Systems, Inc.  I think it must be a debug mode...

Anyway, then just type the letter of the pill you want dropped, except:
	B = Boss Mode
	W = Break

Cheers, and good luck!
