  2. Oct 11, 2013  This is a video on how to hack a Mac computer. This only works for macs as far as I know. It works by first booting into first user mode, then with 3.
Secret boss fights

After downloading the 1.2 Update, complete the indicated task to fight the corresponding secret boss:

    Secret Boss 1 - Little Radish (The Root Pack): Go to Isle 1 and fight The Root Pack. During the battle, defeat the Potato but do not attack the Onion that appears after him. After a certain amount of time has passed, a Radish will instead appear. The Radish will appear with the Carrot for the final round.

    Secret Boss 2 - Puppet Cuphead (Djimmi The Great): Go to Isle 2 and fight Djimmi The Great. Once you reach the third round, transform your airplane into the smallest form. Djimmi will reveal a Puppet Cuphead that fights alongside him in the end of the fight.

    Secret Boss 3 - Sally's Sweetheart (Sally Stageplay): Go to Isle 3 and fight Sally Stageplay. During the first round, parry off the heart-kisses to jump onto the cherub angel platforms on the left/right corners of the arena. Stand on the cherub until you hear a cracking sound effect. Then, stand on the opposite cherub angel, and both platforms will collapse. The stage will collapse and crush Sally's paramour in the background. He will now appear in the final phase of the fight as a blue angel, helping her with attacks of his own.

2-Strip mode

Talk to the fork standing outside the shop in Inkwell Isle 3 to get a hint about getting A's in the game. Get mostly 'A' grades for all the Boss fights on the 'Checklist' (a few 'B' grades are acceptable). Then, talk to the fork again to unlock the '2-Strip' filter, which changes the display to a two strip limited color palette.

Black & White filter and Vintage mode

Talk to the turtle sitting on the dock in Inkwell Isle 3 to get a hint about seeing the game in gray. This is referring to completing the platforming levels with a 'Pacifist' rank (do not shoot any enemies). The following are the six platforming levels:

    Forest Follies
    Treetop Trouble
    Funfair Fever
    Funhouse Fazzle
    Perilous Piers
    Rugged Ridge

You must complete each platforming level without shooting an enemy using your gun; however, supers that grant invincibility, dashing, and parrying are allowed. Use the smoke bomb to move past enemies untouched and the invincibility super to get past bosses. Also, use your parry to defeat enemies and build your super. Successfully complete a platforming level without shooting an enemy to get a 'P' grade and have the flag outside have a 'P' on it. Successfully complete all six platforming levels with a 'P' grade, then talk to the turtle again to unlock the 'Black & White' filter (changes the display to black and white, giving a more 1930s retro style) and Vintage mode (alters the audio).

Expert mode

Successfully complete the game to unlock the Expert difficulty.

Alternate endings

Successfully complete the indicated task once you fight The Devil at the end of the game to unlock the corresponding ending:

    Bad Cuphead ending: Start fighting The Devil, and agree to give him the Soul Contracts when asked during the opening cutscene. In this ending, both Cuphead and Mughead are seen having gone insane and are rotting in hell with The Devil.

    Good Cuphead ending: Start fighting The Devil, but choose not to give him the Soul Contracts when asked during the opening cutscene. Then, defeat The Devil to view the 'Good Cuphead' ending. In this ending, you run home and tell everyone they are now safe. Everyone is happy in the ever after.

All hidden coin locations

Search the indicated locations to find all seven hidden coins:

World 1: Inkwell Isle 1

    1. Successfully complete the tutorial to get the first coin.

    2. Defeat all the bosses in Inkwell Isle 1. The Axeboy will then move aside and the second coin can be found in the trees.

    3. Go to the Aviary Action Boss stage, then go behind it. Move to your right to locate a shortcut to the other side of the island. Take the shortcut and reach to the Gingerbread Girl in front of Aviary Action to get the third coin.

    4. You will meet a juggler near the Dragon's level. Complete his challenge (parry four times before landing), then return to him to get the fourth coin.

    5. Near the exit to Inkwell Isle 3 is a green shack with the fifth coin in front of it.

(Updated 5/31/17) I recently noticed that McDonald’s stock is at an all-time high. They are clearly making a ton of money off our fast-food love affair, so I figured it was time to come up with some McDonald’s menu hacks that can actually save us money on our next trip to the golden arches. Whether it’s breakfast, lunch, or dinner, these tips can definitely save you some cash. McFlurry anyone?

1. Order the “Budget” Big Mac

Did you know that you can order any McDonald’s burger to come with “special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions – on a sesame seed bun”, just like the famous Big Mac? Apparently there’s even a button on the register for this request at many golden arches locations. All you have to say is “Like a Mac” and you’ll get hooked up – minus the 3rd bun in the middle of course, but you can live without that strange invention.

Turns out this is a great hack to get a Big Mac for a lot less money. For example, order a “McDouble – like a Mac” and you’ll essentially get a Big Mac for about $2 after the add-ons, compared to the original Big Mac which comes with a price tag of $4.19 at most locations. Also, if you’re simply craving a double burger, just order the McDouble instead of the Big Mac and easily save a couple bucks as the McDouble remains a steal at $1.79.

2. Order McNuggets in Multiples of 4

For

Okay, so this tip is awesome if you love yourself some chicken nugs. The next time the craving hits order your McNuggets in multiples of four. Why? Well, a box of 4 will typically run you about $1.30 ($0.32 cents a nugget) while a box of 10 will cost you about $4.50 or $0.45 cents a nugget. So…if your local arches has the 4-pack on the menu, order them up like crazy as you’re saving money.

3. Ask About Discounted Chow

I use to do this in college and it almost always worked. When ordering, I’d simply ask if they had any burgers or fries that were “going begging”. Meaning they were made but not bought, or perhaps they’ve been sitting under the heat lamp a little too long. Nothing wrong with them! I use to get Big Macs for $0.79, Quarter Pounders for $0.75, and fries for $0.50. Hey, I was a starving college student and I didn’t care what anyone else thought!

4. Over 55? Get a Free Cup of Coffee

If you’re over 55, did you know you’re entitled to a free cup of coffee every time you enter a McDonalds? You must dine-in to be eligible for your free coffee, and not all restaurants participate, but it’s definitely worth asking about. Also, it appears that some golden arches offer the choice of a free coffee or a cold beverage.

5. Egg McMuffin Hack

The next time you enter a McDonald’s jonesing for some breakfast, consider ordering a simple Sausage McMuffin (without the egg) along with an ala carte “round egg” and create your own Sausage Egg McMuffin on the cheap. According to the clever folks at BuzzFeed, by ordering it this way, you’ll get it for $2.58 instead of $3.19. Not a huge savings, but a fun McDonald’s secret menu hack that’ll stick it to Ronald every time.

6. Want Hot and Fresh Fries?

Nothing worse than luke warm and soggy french fries. To avoid this, be sure to order them with “No Salt” and Mickey D’s will fry up a fresh batch just for you. You can then add the salt yourself if you want. While this won’t save you any money, it will definitely get you some deliciously amazing french fries on your next visit.

This tip also works for the Filet O’ Fish – order it “no cheese” and you’re guaranteed to get a freshly made fish sandwich.

7. Don’t Ignore the Value Menu

Mac Vs Pc For Coding

Not all “Value Menu” items are created equal as some are much better deals than others. The best value menu items at McDonalds are as follows:

  • McChicken Sandwich: At an affordable $1, this is the best buy on the ENTIRE menu by far. It weights 5.10 ounces, which means it’s priced at $3.14 per pound. In contrast, the Big Mac sells for over $9 per pound and the Filet O’ Fish comes in at $12.45 per pound.
  • 2 Cheeseburgers for $2: If you’re craving beef instead of poultry, the 2 cheeseburgers for $2 is the best way to go.
  • McDouble: At $1.79, the McDouble is also a great value menu item. Order it “Like a Mac” and get it with all the Big Mac trimmings and you’ve essentially order a Big Mac and saved a couple bucks in the process.
