B.C.'s Quest For Tires

• The manual mentions if your timing is good, the Dooky Bird will help you over the lava pit.  On the first time through, unless you're going at full speed by the time you reach the top of the hill, the bird will fly in from the left and stop in the middle of the screen.  You simply have to position yourself underneath him and then jump up when you reach the edge of the lava pit.  The 2nd time through, the bird will stop close to the right side of the screen, regardless of your speed.  The 3rd time through, you need to be going about 64 and let the bird fly past you.  At that point, slow down and time it so that you can grab the bird by the time the pit appears.

• You need to be going at least 60 to jump over the 3rd river, and at least 70 the 4th river and all subsequent rivers.

• BUG: When starting a new level, sometimes the game will start you right in front of a rock or hole.

• BUG: The graphics for the tree branch/log scene will become jumpy the faster you go.

• BUG: Several graphics glitches can appear on the hill sections.  When going uphill, jumping UP+LEFT will cause your character’s head to briefly stretch (picture #1).  At the top of the hill, jumping near the right side of the screen causes a single pixel to appear above your head (picture #2).  When going downhill, a similar graphics glitch will appear when jumping UP+RIGHT.  Also, if you jump UP+RIGHT just as you start to go downhill, part of your head will remain floating in the air (picture #3) and will actually stay onscreen up to and including the cave (picture #4)!  Note that if this piece is hit by a falling boulder, you will be killed.  If you go faster than 72 at the top of the first 2 hills, the bird won’t appear (picture #5)!  {Scott Stilphen}

• BUG: At the volcano/falling rocks scene, keep to the right side of the screen. When you get to the turtles/dinosaur scene, you can immediately jump across without being harmed.  {Jeff Lunn}

• BUG: If you go at full speed right before you reach the turtles/dinosaur scene, you’ll end up in the water but you won’t be killed, and can simply keep moving right to get across the water and even past the dinosaur (picture #6).  {Scott Stilphen}
