Hint: Hidden game name:
The Space Invaders-type hidden game takes place in a realm called "Rellim Ohcanep" which is a backwards spelling of "Penacho Miller", two members of the development team.
Hint: Noob Saibot's name:
This hidden character's name is a backwards spelling of "Tobias Boon", which is derived from the co-creators of the Mortal Kombat series; John Tobias and Ed Boon. Ed Boon also provides the voice for Scorpion.
Hint: Easier moves:
To perform a finishing move that contains an "Up" command, it may be easier to hold Block for performing the movement commands to stop you from jumping. Then release Block for any attack commands.
