The game checks whether a copy is legitimate or not at runtime,
checking its registration code through a web server.
Should an illegal code be detected, the game will run normally
for four levels, then lock up on a "LICENSE AGREEMENT VIOLATION !" screen.
The only option is to press any key and quit the game,
which will then revert the game to an unregistered state.
Booting with the command line arguments DEBUG
starts the game in a debug mode, but it is unknown how it functions.
Hidden inside the TIMS folder is an inconspicuous file called
DUFFY, which is an uncompressed PCM file containing the 1995 song

Pressing F9 at any point during gameplay will toggle
debug mode and displays a mouse cursor.
Two cheats are recognized by the game, but there is no effect:
