FLAG 3: Man's head flys across moon on pit stage
FLAG 4: Will give you Reptile's clues between each fight
FLAG 5: Infinite credits

Unlockables

Fight Reptile

Enable the Cheat Menu and set FIRST BACKGROUND to "The Pit,", FLAG 1 to ON, and FLAG 2 to ON. When you start, you're at the pit screen, and the moon shadows (Santa Claus, the witch, etc.) will always be there. To guarantee a fight with Reptile, never block, get a double flawless, and do the fatality.
