Iron Man of Gaming:
Begin a new profile and enter IM&SGC14 as your name. You'll be notified that
you unlocked a new cheat, and then you can name your character again. Go with
whatever name you like and start playing to find that all relics have been
unlocked, health and mana are boosted, and you're equipped with the Dynamo
armor. You can only play a single level, though, and your play is timed.
That's because you have accessed a special mode that was created for the
Iron Man of Gaming event.
Regaining money hint:
If you die in a pit, return there and use the Fishing Rod to drop a line into
the pit. It will collect any floating bags that were dropped when you died.
Money back from Mr. Hat:
After paying off the characters inside the Armor Outpost's hat shop, it is
possible to chase Mr. Hat around the outpost to get your money back. Just
after winning the battle inside the shop, go outside to find Mr. Hat standing
on top of the shop's sign. Use the airship to get on the rooftops and jump
over to him. He will give you 1,000 gold and run away. Return to the airship
to find him again for another 1,000 gold before he jumps down a hole. After
the two-way catapult on top of the airship is available, go there to find
him one last time and receive 1,000 gold before he catapults away.
