This Dynamite Headdy FAQ was made in order to supplement Bob Tomasevich's
Dynamite Headdy FAQ. Unfortunately, Bob seems to have vanished into this air,
I don't know how to contact him with updates to it! So I was forced to make
my own. If you know where the few remaining Secret Bonus Points are, please
PLEASE tell me, so I can add it to the FAQ, and hopefully there will finally
be a collection of all of them!
By all means, you may distribute this FAQ freely, or you could even charge
money for it if you can find somebody dumb enough to pay for it. Just PLEASE
don't make any changes to it. If you feel the need, do what I did, go make
your own FAQ!!!

===============
Level Select/Head Test
===============
At the Title screen, press start once. Highlight "Start Game" and punch in C,
A, Left, Right, B. If done correctly, Headdy will go "Yas!" Press start
again and you can choose your level. Punch in the code with "Options"
highlighted and you'll go to the Head Check screen! Neato, huh?
===============
Secret Bonus Points
===============
Oh how we Headdy fans love to hear it, "He's got a Secret Bonus Point." This
is a listing of all the secret bonus points I know of. Because I want
everyone to know how good I am, ^_- I'm marking the location I needed Bob's FAQ
to find with an asterisk. A big HUGE Thank you to Mathew Ashby for the 8-3
Tarot Bonus, and another one goes out to Michael Oester for the 8-2 Missile
Man Bonus. Everything else was found by me and a few by my brother Christopher.
1-1 The Getaway Destroy the big red robot before he gets all your
friends.
Total: 1/1 Total thus far: 1/1
===============
2-1 Practice Area Successfully complete the three practice areas
2-2 Toys n the Hood Knock the soldier with the telescope off the tower
before destroying it.
After beating the green Robot, hit the two
creatures that jump out of the cage for two
bonuses.
Get the Spiked Head and go up the verticle
passageway, then defeat the dragon.

with Bino. When he drops Bino, smash him (Bino)
for a Bonus point.

3-1 Down Under Wait just to the right of one of the machines that
spits out balls. When Bino's head rolls out, bash
it for a bonus point!

kitties at you. When he throws out a kitty with a
big green head, smash it!
3-3 The Green Room Defeat the top half of the boss (the Puppeteer)
first for a secret bonus point.

as Bino before killing it. Hit the Bino mask and
get a bonus point!
Total: 4/4 Total Thus far: 13/13
===============
4-1 Terminate Her Too Hit any one of the objects that say "Hit Me"
repeatedly until it finally gives you a bonus
point. It takes 16 or 20 hits, I've forgotton
which.
When the tank shoots out a cannonball that bounces,
destroy the cannaonball for a bonus point.
After you push the green weirdo off the water
fountain, jump on top of its head and hit it from
above repeatedly until it dies.
4-2 Mad Mechs Break all the boxes that require a Hammer Head
(They have hammers on them) for a bonus point.
4-3 Mad Mechs 2 * Destroy the two fans and get a bonus for each.
4-4 Heathernapped Wait for Bino to come down and wash windows before
moving to the right. Beat him up for a secret
bonus point.
Total: 7/7 Total thus far: 20/20
===============
5-2 Stair Wars Eventually, after going up the stairs for a really
long time, you will get a bonus. Don't defeat
Trouble Bruin until you do.
5-3 Towering Internal This doesn't work all the time, I'm not sure how
exactly it's done: When you get to the two
swinging arms, position yourself so that you can
see both Hangmen, with the one on top on the right.
Stay in this position and jump over the arms'
attacks. Hit them one after another so they day at
the same time. Wait about a second while they
explode, then move right and grab Hangman to move
up to the next level. You should get a bonus from
that.
5-4 Spinderella After Spinderella moves you to the background and
back to the front again, Bino will come running
onto the screen from the left. Hit him four times
for a bonus point.
Total: 3/3 Total thus far: 23/23
===============
6-1 Flying Game Wait by the Headcase at the beginning of the stage
for Bino's head to appear in it. Then grab it for
a bonus!
Destroy the middle rocket in the second set of
three. It is recognizable by the cow on its side.
6-4 Babyface Do not let Babyface's final incarnation grab you,
keep shooting until it dies. Bino is tied up
inside, blast him for a bonus.
Total: 3/3 Total thus far: 26/26
===============
7-1 Headdy Wonderland One of the cows, when jumped on, will make a horse
noise instead of a moo. Smash him!
On top of the first totem pole is a big sad bird.
Smack him before he flies away for a bonus!
This isn't a bonus, but it's fun! When the boss
appears, try to get Heather to miss when she throws
the keys by making the Gatekeeper face the wrong
direction. The look on her face is priceless!
Let the Nasty Gatekeeper toss his arms off the
screen until he grabs Bino, smack him for a secret
bonus point.
Total: 3/3 Total thus far: 29/29
===============
8-1 The Rocket Tier Collect all the 500pts icons at the top of the
screen for a bonus.
8-2 Illegal Weapon 3 After defeating Missile Man, hit any of the
soldiers who fall from the balcony for a Secret
Bonus Point!
8-3 Fun Forgiven When fighting the sun boss, Tarot, hit him with the
heart sphere three times in a row for a secret bonus
point!
At the very end of the stage, there should be a
"Don't Hit" box on the ceiling to the left of the
exit. Hit it for a secet bonus!
8-4 Vice Versa The heads that hang upside down will fire orange
shots at you. Destroy three shots for a bonus
point.
8-5 Twin Freaks When the boss is green, it will occasionally fire
heads out of its ear. Amongst these heads is Bino!
Smash him for a secret bonus point! This one is
really hard to get.
Total: 6/6 Total Thus far: 35/35
===============
9-1 Fatal Contraption Destroy either of the jumping, brown, Cocoa heads
as you move up the elevator. I do not believe it
is possible to get them both.
Grab the Hammer Head and break every block you can,
whether it requires the hammer or not, for a secret
bonus point. Timing is critical, you must grab the
hammer at the last second so it will last all the
way up to the top. Destroy hammer boxes first, so
if it wears out you'll still be able to destroy the
other boxes.
9-3 Final Analysis This isn't a bonus, but watch Dark Demon's crystal
ball. The color that it stops on will determine
his attack, so grab the head that will best enable
you to dodge it! (Go for the Pinhead and be safe
every time if you're a real weanie!)
Total: 2/4 Grand Total: 37/39
===============
Remember, any contributions are more than welcome! We're almost there! Only
TWO MORE Bonus Points to go!!!
===============
Secret Numbers
===============
Don't forget about the secret numbers! After you beat the game with all four
(Don't forget what they are!) watch all the way through the credits for your
reward!
