TIPS AND TRICKS

* Free Shield, 1: At the start of any level, move Louie exactly in the middle of the screen (positioning is very important), then press PAUSE, B. If you did this right, you should see a message at the bottom of the screen that says SHIELD AWARDED. In the first level, the exact position is in front of the door.

* Free Shield, 2: When the timer is exactly 299, press B. This does not work in later stages.
