Get lots of money

Spend your money on a Dragon Feet book, and max out your kick power. Now go to the Sauna at the last town to fight Bonny & Clyde. You'll waste them in one hit each, and make around $7.50 per kill! Leave the screen and reenter, and repeat the process. If they somehow get a hit off you, enter the sauna, and use some of the money to restore some of that lost stamina.

Music note

Do you hear music that sounds so familiar when you fight the Dragon Twins (second to last boss)???? That's right, it is the theme on the title screen of Double Dragon!!! (or in the vs. mode of the same game, I forgot which).

Save your girlfriend without beating the game

You can save your girlfriend without beating the game. On the floor where you fight the twins push up on 1 of the doors and you'll go in it. She says thanks (note: the ending is the same). Also, the best place to make money is were you fight the two bosses in purple (either time), just dragon kick one to death and the other will stand still until you hit him. Dragon feet and grand slam are the most important books. The magic shop is in a hidden door in the tunnel. Last, the most efficient way to max stats is eating various candy bars, the best food to take with you is karma jolt medicine, and the best place to heal is the sauna.
