Alternate ending​

Acquire the Key of Serpentis, then play level 10-7, "Jokulkyrkja", in Antarctica. Get on the platform with the odd snake sign and it will certainly decrease into a Boss battle. Beat in charge by tossing knives at the crystals on the ceiling in order to break each area of the dragon platform you are riding on. After in charge has actually been beat you will certainly unlock Antarctica for all characters, Jim Hawkins, and the alternate ending.

How to get infinite free lives

1. Go to a level where a Golden Skull is easy to obtain and close to the beginning of the level (here, World 4 Stage 3 = Stage 4-3 Dangerous Exit then World 2 Stage 5 = Stage 2-5 Flaming Corridors).
2. Get the skull.
3. Wait for the 1up to appear and the life counter to register your additional life.
4. Press pause.
5. Select World map.
6. Repeat over and over until you are happy with the number of lives you have.

Please note that choosing Retry Stage removes one life and would thus defeat the purpose of this trick. You have to go back to the map for the new life to stay.
