Hack description

These cheat codes... are too damn long!
(Insert your favorite meme here.)

Want your gameplay uncensored? Super speed? Extra lives? Weapons?

Why memorize up to 25 buttons or more to skip a level, when it's as easy as A, B, C?

This romhack reduces the original button presses needed to activate in-game cheats to a maximum of three.

It also wipes certain codes (Debug Mode, 54 lives secret room) in favor of a new 99 lives/invincibility option. (Please check out the readme file for revised cheat codes.)

And... it tosses in a few text edits for kicks.

Note that this hack is also fully compatible with Barone's No Black Border mod. Why not grab both and combine them?

Does what it says... but there's a serious problem.Psychlonic2022-03-20Version 1.11

Robocop Versus The Terminator has some amazing features that for whatever reason never made it into the "default" game, such as female punks, a neat death animation for Robocop that electrocutes any enemy touching his body, and so much more. These features have remained behind excessively long codes until this hack came along.

Unfortunately it seems that this hack automatically boosts Robocop's jump height without even activating any codes. This is not only super annoying because you end up reaching platforms you don't want to but it can completely break the game forcing you to reset in certain areas. If this issue is fixed I'll gladly change my recommendation but until then, it kind of ruins the game.

Also if I might add a suggestion, perhaps offer what the codes activate as their own individual IPS patches? Most of the content in the "real game" code is super amazing and only enhances the game. A lot of players have no idea those features even exist.
