or that Danial Remar took some pretty extraordinary measures to prevent cheating.

No, it's just that Gamemaker does some crazy stuff with variables at times, it seems. So far, I haven't been able use Cheatfinder(something I assume is very similar to Cheat Engine) to memory-hack Iji or Spelunky, and probably a few other GM games I can't remember.

Took a while, but I've got all three normal modes 100% completed.  So anyone that hacked the game for infinite life, anything happen when you beat the hidden fourth mode?

There comes a time when you must take off the soft, furry slippers of a boy and put on the shoes of a man.
Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.
Especially if that fat pig Tony is at the desk.

PS tip for reaper drone

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING.

That blows the fourth difficulty WIDE OPEN.  The reaper drone is the only reason why I couldn't beat that without infinite life.  (It would have helped if the Elite leveled you up when you killed it, too.  It's the only boss there that doesn't.)

I mean, without the Reaper Drone being a bastard, it's going to be hard as hell.  But.  Not.  Impossible.  At.  All.  (Especially tool-assisted slow-mo + savestates.  What I'm saying is:  No memory hacking.)

...There's another room, past the first one.  Hee hee.  Lal.  >:3

Yeah I beat him on Annihilation mode, and then figured out that trick for hard.  It made it so much easier.

Without cheating though, I'm not sure you can do that in the fourth mode.  You need to be doing it for like 5 seconds for the first one, and about 1 second each for the next two.  5 seconds is definitely long enough for them to kill you to death.

Oh hell.  You're right.  And you can only do it against the FLOOR, not the ceiling.  Plasma Hydra blocks out the whole bottom-right quadrant, really, and the Guardian also keeps you off the floor reeeally good.  The Guardian is one of the last things to kill...you really have to go after Plasma Hydra first, and his final form would make things a whole lot worse for you.

So, forget about that trick, unless there's some way to come into the level with it already turned on.
