I should appologize for the delay in this final update, it's been like a year since
Heitor Chang hit me with the final secret bonus point location and while the news
was posted to my Treasure page, the FAQ never quite got updated.  Anyway, this
is the complete location list!  Enjoy!

By all means, you may distribute this FAQ freely, or you could even charge
money for it if you can find somebody dumb enough to pay for it.  Just PLEASE
don't make any changes to it.

     Secret Numbers
     Treasure Websites



===============
Level Select/Head Test
===============

At the Title screen, press start once.  Highlight "Start Game" and punch in C,
A, Left, Right, B.  If done correctly, Headdy will go "Yas!"  Press start
again and you can choose your level.  Punch in the code with "Options"
highlighted and you'll go to the Head Check screen!  Neato, huh?


===============
Secret Bonus Points
===============

Oh how we Headdy fans love to hear it, "He's got a Secret Bonus Point."  This
is a listing of all the secret bonus points I know of.  Big huge Thankyous go
to the following people:

      -Heitor Chang and Saviour-V for verifying the 9-2 Bonus
      -Mathew Ashby, for the 8-3 Tarot Bonus
      -Michael Oester, for the 8-2 Missile Man Bonus
      -TimeStones, for clarifying the 5-3 Midboss Bonus.  You don't even wanna
       know how I thought it was done.  ^_^
      -Christopher Stearns, my brother, who stumbled into more than just a few
       when I wasn't looking..
      -And of course, Bob Tomasovich, who wrote the first FAQ for me to leech a
       couple SBPs from!  ^_^  (Marked with an * Asterisk)

4-1  Terminate Her Too     Hit any one of the objects that say "Hit Me"

                          which.

                          When the tank shoots out a cannonball that bounces,
                          destroy the cannaonball for a bonus point.

===============

5-2  Stair Wars            Eventually, after going up the stairs for a really

                          Trouble Bruin until you do.

5-3  Towering Internal     Heh, the correct way.. ^_^  Simply don't get hit on
                          your way up the tower by Balloon Kelly, the flame
                          throwers, or the spinning midboss, and the bonus
                          point is yours.

5-4  Spinderella           After Spinderella moves you to the background and
                          back to the front again, Bino will come running
                          onto the screen from the left.  Hit him four times
                          for a bonus point.

Total: 3/3                 Total thus far: 23/23
===============

6-1  Flying Game           Wait by the Headcase at the beginning of the stage
                          for Bino's head to appear in it.  Then grab it for
                          a bonus!

                          Destroy the middle rocket in the second set of
                          three.  It is recognizable by the cow on its side.

                          keep shooting until it dies.  Bino is tied up
                          inside, blast him for a bonus.

Total: 3/3                 Total thus far: 26/26
===============

7-1  Headdy Wonderland     One of the cows, when jumped on, will make a horse
                          noise instead of a moo.  Smash him!

                          On top of the first totem pole is a big sad bird.
                          Smack him before he flies away for a bonus!

                          This isn't a bonus, but it's fun!  When the boss
                          appears, try to get Heather to miss when she throws
                          the keys by making the Gatekeeper face the wrong
                          direction.  The look on her face is priceless!

                          Let the Nasty Gatekeeper toss his arms off the
                          screen until he grabs Bino, smack him for a secret
                          bonus point.

Total: 3/3                 Total thus far: 29/29
===============

8-1  The Rocket Tier       Collect all the 500pts icons at the top of the
                          screen for a bonus.

8-2  Illegal Weapon 3      After defeating Missile Man, hit any of the
                          soldiers who fall from the balcony for a Secret
                          Bonus Point!

8-3  Fun Forgiven          When fighting the sun boss, Tarot, hit him with the
                          heart sphere three times in a row for a secret bonus
                          point!

                          At the very end of the stage, there should be a
                          "Don't Hit" box on the ceiling to the left of the
                          exit.  Hit it for a secet bonus!

8-4  Vice Versa            The heads that hang upside down will fire orange
                          shots at you.  Destroy three shots for a bonus
                          point.

8-5  Twin Freaks           When the boss is green, it will occasionally fire
                          heads out of its ear.  Amongst these heads is Bino!
                          Smash him for a secret bonus point!  This one is
                          really hard to get.

Total: 6/6                 Total Thus far: 35/35
===============

9-1  Fatal Contraption     Destroy either of the jumping, brown, Cocoa heads
                          as you move up the elevator.  I do not believe it
                          is possible to get them both.

                          Grab the Hammer Head and break every block you can,
                          whether it requires the hammer or not, for a secret
                          bonus point.  Timing is critical, you must grab the
                          hammer at the last second so it will last all the
                          way up to the top.  Destroy hammer boxes first, so
                          if it wears out you'll still be able to destroy the
                          other boxes.

9-2 Far Trek            Get through the cooridor without being hit by
                       by the Super Finagler or glomped by Trouble Bruin.
                       it's very difficult and I have never actually done it
                       myself--good luck!

9-3  Finale Analysis       This isn't a bonus, but watch Dark Demon's crystal
                          ball.  The color that it stops on will determine
                          his attack, so grab the head that will best enable
                          you to dodge it!  (Go for the Pinhead and be safe
                          every time if you're a real weanie!)

                       When the Crystal flashes green, Dark Demon attacks
                       with a row of guys wearing pointy hats from the
                       bottom of the screen.  Use the Hammer head to destroy
                       them all for a secret bonus point!

Total: 4/4                 Grand Total: 39/39
===============

And your fantastic prize?  The satisfaction of a job well done, sorry.  ^_^
