TRIVIA:
[1] Reviewed under its pre-release title, DRACONIA (Commodore User, July 88, pp50-51), the game was renamed to MENACE presumably because of the release of a C64 game by Zeppelin entitled DRACONUS [Sources: Commodore User, Aug 88, p7; The Complete History of DMA Design website].
[2] Before DRACONIA, the game had yet another pre-release title in the form of COPPERCON1, which was inspired by the name of an Amiga hardware register [Source: The Complete History of DMA Design website].

This one’s a bit tricky - type “XR31TURBONUTTERBASTARD” while the game is in progress. (Try doing that without getting killed off!) You should now have a large supply of shields, cannon and lasers. They will run out eventually so you have to type it in again.
Another cheat file lists the code with spaces between words! Type “XR31 TURBO NUTTER BASTARD” and hit keys 1-6 to select a level. Then press RETURN for extra weapons.
The 1 may actually be an I.
