The Planet X Boss level was never intended to be in the game. One of
the programmers was done early and decided to add an extra feature.
The Planet X Boss level was the result, but was unfinished and left
out of the game. The premise behind this scenario is that the Boss, a
robot, tries to shoot Gex with a shrink ray. After a while, a green
orb will fall from the ceiling. Gex will grow larger each time he
eats the orb. If Gex can eat the orb three times without being shrunk,
he will be large enough to defeat the robot. After the Boss is
defeated, and the game is allowed to continue without pressing the
D-pad, Gex will eat various objects that will appear on the screen.
