Under Constructions
For now I will be dumping random Bee Storm information here so it exist somewhere.
Stage 2 Boss Health Regen Bug(Courtesy of Pearl):
Hp value is a value from 0 to FFFF (more complex than this but it's for simplicity). When there's ~1030 frames left on the timer, if hp is less than C900 hp is set to C900. Later it is set to 9000 and then finally 7000
So you use a bomb as it hits c900, then the damage you're dealing is enough to trigger the extra two hp resets.
Cause as long as you're under the threshold said above the hp is reset to that value, so the damage is free.
In practice this can be somewhat consistently achieved by using an energy bomb at the moment the boss sends his final horizontal line attack, and then point blanking the boss until you are able to return to the top left safe spot.
Stage 4 & 5 Hex Turret Item Drops
This will eventually need to go into version differences, but for now I'll dump it here. There are two types of hex turrets in the Japan v100 roms. An orange sprite with lower HP and no item drop, and a green sprite with higher HP and a chance to drop either a power up or bomb. In the Korean v100 roms, and the world v102 roms(only other two versions I've played enough to notice a difference) all hex turrets are of the green variety. I'm unsure if they are a simple recolor or a full enemy swap. The new green hex turrets drop items unlike their jp rom counterparts, but I'm unsure if their health has been increased as well. The Japan v102 roms maintain the orange hex turrets, so this isn't a simple version difference, but perhaps a region difference?
All this has a significant impact on high level, low-power scoring. The orange hex turrets can, and generally should be routed and used. They are prime targets for both point blanking(combo building) and bomb recharging(Energy Mode). In versions with the orange hex turrets replaced by the green ones, routing these sections becomes more difficult and the player has to choose if they should take advantage of the turret at the risk of releasing an unwanted power-up item.
