Notable Attacks/Techniques:
- Rifle: Bill's default weapon. It has a semi-automatic rate of fire and deals relatively low damage. It also has a grappling hook that Bill can use to latch onto railings.
- Machine Gun: Also known as Heavy Machinegun. It is similar to the default rifle in terms of damage, but it is fully automatic and fast-shooting.
- Spread Gun: Also known as Spread, Spread Shot or Spray Gun. Enables Bill to shoot in five different directions. It is semi-automatic, but it was also capable of fully automatic fire, albeit slower compared to the Machine Gun, and deals relatively high damage.
- Laser: Also known as Laser Gun. Bill fires a laser beam which inflicts high damage upon impact. If a consecutive laser was fired after the first, the first laser would disappear. It also sports additional properties such as homing or shooting in a specific direction.
- Flame Thrower: Also known as Fire Gun or Fire Ball. Bill can shoot fireballs that spirals toward the target or one huge fireball that breaks off into eight smaller fireballs when it strikes a target. Charging the weapon will produce a large fireball that breaks into even more fireballs.
- Homing Gun: Also known as Homing Shot or Homing Missiles. Bill fires rockets that home in on enemies, eliminating the need to aim. The damage of the projectiles is usually very low in order to compensate for this weapon's high versatility.
- Crush Gun: Also known as Crush or Crash. Bill shoots blue missiles that deal high damage but suffer from short range. Once it hits an object or reaches a certain distance, the missile will detonate and the explosion will remain in place for a short time, dealing additional damage which can potentially amount for a heavily destructive attack.
- Rapid Fire: Also known as Rapid Bullets. Bill can increase the rate of fire possible for his current weapon. It also enables projectiles to reach a farther distance and, in the case of the Spread Gun, adds extra projectiles.
- Barrier: Also known as Barrier Shield or Force Field. Bill summons a barrier around him that makes him have temporary invincibility. He will flash red and blue, and any enemies that make contact with him will be destroyed instantly.
- Mega Shell: Also known as Mass Destruction. Bill can use this special power-up in a symbol of a falcon to instantly destroy all on-screen enemies when picked up.
- Bomb: Also known as M-80,000 Helio Bomb. Bill can set off an explosion that instantly destroys all enemies caught within its considerable blast radius and deals considerable damage.
