Biggest exploint? Nah..
Most cool one? Definetly.
Game: Commander Keen 4: Secret of the Oracle From 1991.
I discovered a secret area in the first level that gave you 8 extra lifes. Just take them. Die and rinse and repeat.
Note: I was at most 6-7 years old when discovered this myself and i rebought commander keen a few years ago, the secret area is still there!
edit: here's a video of the area https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z29jQvVLaXY. Still blows my mind i discovered this on accident as a kid.
Oh yeah, not the only game that did that.
I can't remember the name of the game, but it was a 2D platformer/shooter. There was a level which had a 1-up item, giving you an extra life, and a BUNCH of point-items. So, run in there, grab all of it, die, and restart the level. Didn't lose a life, but got to keep all the points. Score!
