3. Coin up 1 credit, then start game
4. Bump into asteroids
5. Press FIRE button 7 times
6. Don’t do anything else – get killed. If you hit or shoot something, go back to #4

BUG: Extra ships - Getting killed twice is possible (before being “crushed” by the Sinistar, and still spinning in its mouth) get shot by a Warrior. If you have more than 1 ship left, you will lose 2 ships; if you have 1 ship left, the program’s ship reserve counter resets to 255 ships!
