Play as Onikage
First enter the debug code, access the debug screen, hit "charge item",
then "kawarimi", then hit FULL (this item is the "resurrection leaf", Ayame
or Rikymaru will have this item so that if they are atacked by an enemy the
wont kill them and the game will not end if they are killed). You will be
able to play as Onikage in the lever witch he apears:3,6,9 and 10. Enter
the debug screen again, choose "layout enemy", then "add", then choose
"NINJA", then "pad 1". Then go to the debug screen again, "layout enemy",
then "go". Walk in any direction far enough to let the normal play screen
reapear Onikage. Now enter the debug screen again, hit "layout enemy", then
"select camera owner", then hit the last number the apears on the second
page of the "camera owner screen" (except on level 10 witch is number 23
because Onikage is not the final boss of this level). Now you will be able
to play as Onikage and see him as if you were playing with Rikymaru or
Ayame. You can also add any iten to Onikage, except the "grapling hook",
but you can use the item "the world" instead, witch will move Onikage to
the spot you are amming at. This code can also be use for Lord Meyo (number
24 on level 10 only) or any other enemy that you know the "camera owner"
number.
IMPORTANT!!!: You must get the number of the enemy that you want to use
just right or the camera will go to another place of the level and you will
have to reapear the enemy that you were using and the items again. Have fun
kicking some butt with Onikage!
Los of free items...the hard way
Go to training and try to get grand master,
then Lord Gohda will give you one item each time you get grand master.
