Have Lupus (All characters run on their ship)
Defeat Mizar once (All characters wearing upgraded armor run in Mizars
Palace)
Defeat Mizar for the final time (Juno, Vela, and Lupus wearing regular
armor walking down a runway on Earth)
Hint:
Quick character change: Press C-Left or C-Right at the map screen to
quickly change the character icons.
Hint:
Hear Lupus howl: Press C-Down when playing as Lupus.
Hint:
Super jump: Hold C-Up to perform a super jump.
Hint:
Fix the camera: Players may notice that the default camera setting of Jet Force
Gemini in one-player mode cuts off their vision left and right. For a much
better camera view in one-player mode, go to the "Options" menu,
turn on "Widescreen" (even if you are using a standard television
or monitor), and press C-Up to raise the screen up several inches.
Not only does this zoom back the camera, this also puts the game in a
fish-lens and wide-angle view -- almost doubling your peripheral vision.
This way, it will be much harder for the enemies to run out of camera range.
Hint:
Using the camera effectively: One way to fight better in Jet Force Gemini is to know how to
better maneuver the camera. To do a 180 degree camera spin, press Down
then press R, in that order. To get the camera to follow you as you
circle left, hold Down/Left on the Analog-stick while holding C-Right.
Similarly, hold Down/Right on the Analog-stick while holding C-Left
to spin the camera to the right. Spinning the camera also allows you to do a
quick search of your environment for enemies.
Hint:
Avoid getting hit by flying objects: When reaching a section with small flying objects, run behind a
tree and repeatedly run sideways to avoid getting hit.
Hint:
Abilities: Juno can walk on fire (lava), Vela can swim, and Lupus can hover.
Hint:
Hover with jetpack: Press C-Down to hover with the jetpack. Note: This
consumes less fuel then actively flying.
Hint:
Better control in water: When swimming with any character, hold R for better
control.
Hint:
Easy ant heads: Select the player with the most ant heads in the inventory. Then,
use the map to go to Goldwood. Go through the "Outset" sublevel
and use your pistol and manual targeting to shoot as many of the blue
soldier drones as possible. Shoot the soldier drones directly in the head.
In one or two shots, you should be able to pick up the drone's head, which
has popped off. Do this on every drone in the jungle area, then go into the
cave and collect drone heads. Then, in the cave, drop into the waterfall
hole and go through the door. You will exit and enter an area with a bridge.
Exit the water and cross the bridge. Your area stats should be displayed and
you will enter a new area. Inside this area, turn around and go back the way
you came. All of the drones will return to their original spots. You should
get about 23 heads each time this process is done. Repeat this several times
to get all of the ant head cheats with ease.
Hint:
Easy tokens: In Tawfret, go in the building where the person who lost his
pants was located. Collect the tokens, go out, and re-enter. You should be
able to get as many tokens as desired.
Hint:
Collect out of reach Gemini Crystals: To retrieve Gemini crystals that are in view, but out of reach,
use any of the long range weapons to shoot them. They will bounce down to
floor level.
Hint:
Flame thrower ammunition: Look for Tribals that carry lanterns. Shoot these Tribals once to
make them drop their lanterns (be careful not to kill them). Then, pick them
up to use the fire as flame thrower ammunition.
Hint:
More lives in multi-player mode: Select a character at the selection screen in multi-player mode
and repeat with another controller. If you want more players, unplug a
controller, move it to another port, and repeat.
Hint:
Easy Mizar tokens, health, and ammo: Return to Goldwood after finding the Tri-Rocket Launcher on
Tawfret. There are two huts that have been left intact in the first Goldwood
mission. Use the Tri-Rocket Launcher to blow up the doors to the huts.
Inside one hut are twelve Mizar Tokens. You can exit and re-enter the hut as
often as needed to collect additional tokens. The other hut contains a
Diamond Geezer, who will refill all of your ammunition and health for some
Mizar Tokens.
Hint:
Easy head collecting: To collect heads easily press R to aim and use shurikens
on the smaller ants. It will go straight for the neck and cut off the head.
This is useful if you do not like blowing them up and chasing the heads.
Also, the shurikens can be retrieved and you can target multiple ants and it
will go after them all unless it hits a box, wall, or other obstacle.
Hint:
Winning Mizar Races: When the race begins, the racer beside you is almost guaranteed
to win unless you immediately use a boost. In order to win, must get ahead
of him at the start of the race by using a boost.
Hint:
Unlimited Mizar tokens: Locate an area that contains Mizar tokens but no opponents, such
as the beginning of the Spawnship or the rib cage in Eschebone. Take Mizar
the tokens, then leave and return. The Mizar tokens will re-appear and may
be collected again.
Hint:
Defeating Mizar: To defeat Mizar (form one), shoot his eye when he is attacking
you with his green breath, then shoot his stomach.
Hint:
Defeating Lupus' Bosses: First, shoot their arms off starting with their lasers, then
their tails, then their heads.
Hint:
Defeating Juno's Boss: Shoot its top antennas, then his fangs, then the face.
Hint:
Alternate sniper: When you are out of sniper ammo you can just use Floyd's gun to
snipe the ants. This works well in the room in Eshebone where you have to
snipe the ants, as well at Ichor: Perimeter.
Hint:
One hit Cyborg drone kills: Hit Cyborg drones with the flamethrower and they will die almost
instantly. This is especially useful in the Goldwood: Lodge area.
Hint:
Weapons of choice: The following weapons are recommended for the indicated target.
Blue, Red or Yellow Drone:
Pistol or Machine gun
Shielded: Machine gun
Infantry Weevil or other large drones: Tri-Rocket or Homing missile
Barricade: Tri-Rocket or Shrinkin
Mizar: Tri Rockets, Homing missiles, Machine gun
Bosses: Any weapon (Slug: Machine gun, Tri-Rocket and Homing missiles)
Last Resource: Shrinkin, Plasma shotgun, Flamethrower or Shocker
Never use: Fish Food
The following weapons should be
used as indicated:
Pistol: Try to use this if
you have no other weapon. They are only effective if you go to the options
screen and disable "Expert Control". If you run out of
ammunition, little lasers will appear (unlimited ammunition).
Machine gun: One of the best
weapons. Use it against the air robot enemies and try not to use too much
ammunition on the ants. Try shooting one ant at a time. It is useful for
killing the Red, Yellow, and other big general Drones.
Plasma shotgun: If you are
desperate, use this weapon. It is barely powerful and reaches the enemy
slowly. It can blow up the drones when fully charged.
Tri-rockets: This is a great
when used on the Drones (and the big ones).
Homing missiles: Good
weapons, but are not very good at tracking. Lock on the enemy in targeting
mode and fire.
Shrunkiens: Good weapons that
you retrieve. If they get stuck in a tree or something else, shoot them
and they will fly back down to you. Do not use them on Bosses. Kill Drones
with them. In targeting mode, lock on the enemy and fire.
Timed mines: After five
seconds they will become super mines. Go directly up to one and it will
blow up in your face.
Remote mines: Really very
good to use. They can become camouflaged in some places and therefore
difficult to use.
Fish food: At the second door
of Goldwood, there is a secret area to the right where you get this. It is
the worst "weapon" by far. It does nothing except feed the fish.
Flares: You can light a
flare, and if you switch the weapon, drop it. Or, you can tap A(2)
and throw it to the ceiling. You do not stay long in one area in the game;
try not to use these unless it is very dark.
Grenades: Use your own
discretion for firing these. Throw them behind fully armored Drones and
watch them blow up. Also, throw them at big Drones that just stand there.
Cluster bombs: Try not to use
these. However at certain places you may have to use them. Do not use them
with Blue Drones; Green are better.
Sniper rifle: There is a very
few places you can snipe, but you can be a sniper shooter. Press A
and B to zoom in and out. Find the Green Drones and shoot them
down.
Hint:
Weapon locations (as Juno):
Machine Gun: Destroy the
Infantry weevil behind the Red key door in Goldwood.
Plasma Shotgun: At the Start
of the S.S. Anubis, turn right and walk to the wall and turn right. Climb
the boxes and open the chest. Hold Z to power it up.
Tri Rocket Launchers: King
Jeff will give them to you after you talk to him in Tawfret graveyard.
Sniper Rifle: Go into the
little house by Gimlets place and destroy the drone and rescue the Tribal.
Then, open the chest.
Flares: Find them in the shed
after blowing up the door.
Cluster Bombs: Blow up the
glass in the conveyor belt room in S.S. Anubis and follow the path until
you see the box that holds the cluster bombs.
Shurikens: Destroy the big
crate in the end of the Drone-filled tunnels in Goldwood where all the
Tribals and Drones are located. Then, pick up the Yellow Key and return to
the field with King Jeff's hut. Go past it and cross the water. Enter the
large door. Destroy the Stag and pick up the Shurikens.
Shocker: In Skemmet: Battle
cruiser, go to the part where there is a path to a red key door and a
large amount of lava. Jump in the lava and walk to the door, which is in
one of the silo things. Then, just follow the path and you should find a
chest with the Shocker inside.
Hint:
Weapon locations (as Vela):
Pistol: You will start with
this weapon.
Grenades: In the first room
you start at in Sekhmet.
Machine Gun: In the first
room with two locks that must be opened by destroying all Drones, destroy
the first wave of Drones and a door will open. Do not enter it yet. Pick
off all the snipers and the new wave of Soldier Drones. The second door
will open, allowing you to get the machine gun. This weapon will allow you
to open the target lock in the next Drone room, which will contain the
Plasma shotgun. Fishface will give you the Red Key, and you will be able
to proceed to the docking bay.
Homing Missile Launcher: Go
to Cerulean and enter the room with all the stalagmites, a Yellow Key
door, and the Lifeforce door. As soon as you enter, stay on the left wall
and keep going until you find a cave entrance. Go inside and you should
see a weapon chest, Gemini Capacity Increaser, four Mizar Tokens, and a
full machine gun ammunition box.
Hint:
Shuriken: The Shuriken is probably one of the best weapons. On the shielded
drones, it will go through the shield. This works on both the small shields
and the full body shields that they have.
Hint:
Mine key: You will need this key to get into the Rith Essa mines. Once you
have got the Specialist Magazine from Eschebone, visit Fernando and trade it
against the key. Note: You must use Vela.
Hint:
Refill ammunition: Switch to the shotgun, pistol or machine gun if running low on
ammunition and run over the bodies of dead enemies to collect more bullets
for that weapon. To refill the flame thrower, shoot Tribals once to force
them to drop their lanterns without killing them. Collect the lanterns to
use as flame thrower ammunition.
If you are out of machine gun
ammunition, use the pistol to kill an enemy. Switch to the machine gun, then
collect the enemy's gun. The ammunition will now fill your machine gun.
Hint:
Parts for Floyd: Floyd's parts are in the very area that you meet him. One part is
to the left of the cathedral/church, on the platform. After collecting that
part, keep going, jump on the church, go to the left, go up the stairs, move
to the fireplace, and jump in to reach a sewer. Take a right hand turn to
enter a room. Choose the middle path to end up in a room with sparkling
helicopter blades. Leave the sewer and locate a large building) like the
church) with a metal door. Use Tri Rockets on it, enter the sewer again, and
walk down the path to find another leg part.
The following is where all the
Floyd pieces can be found in the Tawfret courtyard type place.
On top of the walkway near
Gimlets house.
Inside the chimney and down
the path on top of Gimlets house.
Blow up the door near the
back of Gimlets house and walk inside. Proceed to the area where Floyd is
and talk to him. He will follow you around and be available for use in two
player co-op mode.
Hint:
Upgrades: To upgrade, defeat Mizar for the first time. During the
intermission sequence they will go into a chamber and appear upgraded. Vela
will have a jet pack and Lupus will be in a tank.
Hint:
Special item locations:
Gold bars (Cerulean) Directly behind the landing pad.
Turn right after the first life force door near the water.
On top of the sewage pipe
Give them to the Mole for the Tri-rockets.
Specialist magazine
(Eshebone) Dive into the water in the Eshebone: Thorax area. Swim right at the
first fork. Give it to the mole in Rith Essa for the Mine Key.
Gimlet's pants (Tawfret:
Bridge) Found in the in the middle of the lake. Give them to Gimlet for the
Crowbar.
Hint:
Nitrogen tank and Water Ruin: To get to Water Ruin, defeat Mizar 1 with Lupus. The characters'
armor will be upgraded. Then, go to Sekmet with any character. Go to the
third room and get on a Jetpack pad. The Jetpack meter will fill up about
50%. Fly to the high catwalk. Walk through all the rooms until you find the
Launchpad. Take off in the ship and it will land at Water Ruin. Then dive as
Vela into the cave under the largest island. The nitrogen tank and some
weapon upgrades will be on the table.
Hint:
Eschebone: Tribals: Note: Use Lupus or Juno for best results. For the
"Approach" area, through the first door, look to the left. The
first Tribal will be there. After killing the two red ants, look to the left
of the far door (not the one you came in through). In there you will find
Tribal number two. Enter through the door and kill the flying robots, then
jump across the platform to find the next two Tribals (one on the left and
one on the right). Entering into the next room before entering the mouth,
jump onto the platform that has the weapon box on it and look behind you.
There you will find the final two Tribals for the "Approach" area
of Eschebone.
Hint:
Gem Quarry: Tribals: As soon as you start the level, the first two Tribals will be
directly in front of you. After turning the first corner, you will see the
final three (one directly in front of you and the other two in the far left
corner).
Hint:
Walkway: Tribals: Note: You must use Juno for results. Make your way up the walkway
and move around the building to the left. Fill up on jetpack fuel and fly to
the first level of the ceiling to find the first Tribal. Move around the
column with the totem on top to find the second Tribal. Then, go back to the
fuel pad and look down. Jump onto the platform and get the third Tribal.
Note: Make sure you have some jetpack fuel. Fly around to the other side to
find the fourth Tribal. Then, carefully make your way through the trap door
and through the tunnels, decimating all Ants in your path. About halfway
through the tunnels, you will find the last two Tribals.
Hint:
Perimeter C: Kill machine guns: In Perimeter C where there are a lot of barricade drones, look up
and to the left. Use a flare to reveal a small vent you can reach with the
nearby jetpack pad to reveal two Tribals and a secret passage behind about
five machine guns. You can now destroy them without them noticing and
killing you.
Hint:
Kill the fish: Locate a pond with fish in it. Take a grenade, mine, or other
thrown explosive and use it on the fish. They will think its fish food and
go after it. It will blow up in their face and they will float to the top of
the water, lifeless.
Hint:
Fish food: Go to Goldwood. you will find an area near the big rock by the
walls. One has a passageway. You will see a machine that has fish food in
it. You can feed it to the fish.
Glitch:
Get your head stuck: On the Rith Essa Mine multi-player level, go to the bottom of the
elevator and stand in one of the corners near the door. If done correctly,
when the lift comes down your head should get stuck in it.
Glitch:
Breath underwater when dead: Get killed when you are in the water. When you sink to the
bottom, bubbles will come up about every five seconds as if you are
breathing.
