Gameplay Overview

The player is equipped with a main vulcan shot and a subweapon, which can be altered by picking sub-weapon items. To power-up the main vulcan, the player must collect P chips, and to power up the sub-weapon, big P circles must be collected. When the player reaches a bonus stage, the sub-weapon is disabled. If the player destroys all the enemies in a bonus stage, perfect bonus is awarded.

Controls


  • Button I: Shot


Modes


  • Normal: The standard game mode. Contains 8 stages.
  • Special: Same as Normal mode, but with the addition of suicide bullets.

Sub-weapons


  • L (Laser):
Fires a powerful laser bear forward. When at high sub-weapon level, lasers can be fired from the back.
  • W (Wide):
Fires wide wave shots. It`s an essential weapon for killing smaller enemies.
  • H (Homing):
Fires homing beams that will chase any enemy.
  • S (Splitter):
Fires a bullet that later splits in two.
  • D (Orbiting Flames):
Fires a series of flames capable of cancelling enemy bullets.
