If it touches an enemy, the enemy will be hit by the boot blast and take damage.

Invincibility |
Note: This trick only works in a level that contains a morph icon. Get any morph icon, then before you completely change, pause game play and enable the "Free movement" code. Resume game play, then pause game play again and repeat the "Free movement" code. If done correctly, all enemies can be killed by simply walking into them. |

Hint: Hover |
To hover in mid-air, aim down from where Vectorman is falling, then keep shooting. To go higher while hovering, use your jet pack feet. Note: A controller with a turbo feature will make this trick easier.

Hint: Defeating Clockworks |
Keep walking into him and shooting diagonally at his head. When he corners you to the side, keep walking in and go the other way while still shooting at his head. Note: When he gets hurt, he shoots out the orange bomb things.

Hint: Defeating Bomber |

Hint: Defeating Piranha |

Hint: Defeating Monkey |
When you go down through the hole on the left side to reach the monkey, quickly move over to the right side and destroy the television to get a health ball. By this time, the Monkey should be making its way out of the blueprints. Without shooting at the Monkey, go back over to the left where the hole above you is located. Since the Monkey moves around on the ceiling, when he comes near, shoot at him. More often than not, that one shot forces him down onto the ground where he moves back and forth shooting. You should shoot too, and avoid his shots by jumping up if all else fails. The Monkey will then jump back up and go to the right of the screen. Stay there. Do not go after him, because you will almost always get shot badly. Repeat the process until he yells and bursts into pieces.

Hint: Defeating the Bamboo Mill Boss |
You must do two things before facing this Boss. First, always take the high path. Second, at the end of the high path make sure that you destroy the monitor to get the checkpoint orb before you fall down to the Boss' lair. There are two ways to defeat this Boss: The first is to jump and use your jets to hit his head. Do this a numerous times and he will be defeated. The second way is to keep shooting his head and try not to get squished.
