Barrel Roll is an option in Completing the Mission during the "Jewel Baron" ending.
Henry can use this move when trying to reach the Toppat Orbital Station with his scooter, but getting fired at by Burt Curtis. The move allows Henry to dodge the lasers. However, Burt launches the Big Bomb, which takes out Henry. This results in a fail.

That was an Aileron Roll...
Trivia[]
- The Barrel Roll technique is a reference in the Star Fox series and the quote "Do a Barrel Roll" is said by Peppy. In Star Fox games, Barrel Rolls allow spacecraft to deflect laser fire, but not explosives or other direct impacts.
- The language Burt and Reginald talk in this option is the Lylat language, used in Star Fox 1, 2, 64 (with an option only in the N64 game) and Command.
- The Big Bomb is a reference to the Nova Bombs from the Star Fox franchise, with the blast looking like the blast from the Star Fox 64 version.
- In real life, the maneuver from Star Fox would actually be called an Aileron Roll, hence the fail message.
