Red Potion Turns you red, and gives you invincibility. You take no damage except for steeping on lava in stage 3 (if you aren't wearing the lava boots).
Pink Potion Turns you pink and allows you to jump higher.

Colored keys open corresponding doors and chests. They are always found on the ground and shown in your inventory. They are worth 200 points.

Equipment

All equipment is found in chests and stay in your inventory forever unless replaced by a higher level item (Battle Axe of Agor replaces Dagger of Throwing).

Name Description
Dagger of Throwing Allows you to throw a dagger when pressing B, it's range depends on how long you hold the B button, and how many upgrades you have. It does 1 damage and can be found on the first stage. It also allows you to pick up items by throwing it at the item (does not work for monster dropped items), and breaking acorns or torches.
Battle Axe of Agor Allows you to throw one of two axes (depending how many upgrades you have) by pressing B. Works like the Dagger of Throwing, and also replaces it when you pick this up. It does 2 damage and can be only found on the third stage. It also allows you to pick up items by throwing it at the item (does not work for monster dropped items), and breaking acorns or torches.
Shield of Protection Allows you to block certain attacks when facing the attack or projectile when not swinging sword (as this moves the shield). This can be found on the first stage.
Potion of Levitation Allows you to levitate in the air for an indefinite amount of time by holding Up. While levitating, you can jump, making it possible to reach higher platforms than you could otherwise. This can be found in stage 2.
Feather of Feather Fall Although the name is a bit redundant, this item allows you to fall at a slower pace when holding Up. This item allows you to not take any damage when falling at great heights by holding up before hitting the ground. This item also allows you reach horizontal distances you couldn't otherwise. This can be found in stage 2.

Special Equipment

You can only have one of these items at a time. Containers that they come in stay in the stage, so you may swap the items as you wish. To use these items, use the Select button.

Name Description
Boots of Force Allows you to kick monsters doing 3 damage. Also allows you to open chests that you would normally need a key for. Supposedly the instruction manual says you can also open doors this way, but doesn't work ingame.
Cloak of Darkness This item allows your character to become invisible, surprisingly this does not deter enemies at all (lazy coders?), instead it decreases all damage taken by 1, considering all enemies only do 1 damage to you, this item does absolutely nothing good for you.
Wand of Wonder This item shoots a freezing projectile that will freeze an enemy for a couple seconds. It does not freeze bosses, instead it inflicts 1 damage.
Boots of Lava Walk Allows you ride the moving flame walls, while allowing you to still take damage when walking on lava, strange giving it's name (more lazy coding?).
Horn This item reveals hidden doors within on screen when used. The doors will disappear when leaving the screen. It is only really useful on stage 4, as there is many hidden doors.
Staff of Power This item shoots 4 projectiles doing 2 damage each.
