Hi Richard, Another old time save method is the classic "level code". After each level, the character gets a "code" of letters and numbers that can be inputted into the game, usually on a password option. With the proper code in, the player jumps to the level for that code. Otherwise, I think the three lives rule works. Then there is no real need to change modes, at least, I don't think there would be a need. The truth will set you free...
