| I. Introduction |
+----------------------------------------------------+
| Well I thought that maybe this game would go |
| unFAQed, and I having alot of time on my hands, |
| decided to write a guide for it. I wrote this |
| while actually playing it, so if I missed anything |
| just tell me and I'll put in the next version. |
| Well I just hope someone finds this useful. |

| II. Overall Strategy |
+----------------------------------------------------+
Well since this game really requires little
real thinking(this is what I'd call a reflex or
arcade type game) I decided I'd just give some
tips to help you keep out of trouble.
You may or may not thank me later.
Tip #1: Stay away from the sides. Or atleast
until you have a full view of what
you're up against at the time.
Tip #2: Always be ready and on the lookout. This
game can start scrolling in an
unpredictable direction at any time. So
try to avoid any area that looks like you
could get trapped in. The best example of
totally unexpectable scrolling is stage 5
when you're scrolling up, winding through
passage ways going left to right, and when
you reach the top the game starts to
scroll back down.
Tip #3: Avoid falling objects, such as those
falling rocks. Also beware that once a
rock has fallen(triggered by you flying
under it) more will fall in it's place
in 1 to 2 second intervals.
Tip #4: Reserve your power attack(the A button).
I myself rarely had to use it. I only
had to use it when i was totally
surrounded by enemies and things looked
pretty grim, or when a passage was blocked
by enemies and I didn't have time to blow
them up one by one.
Also the power attack will not work on
bosses.

| III. Boss Strategy |
+----------------------------------------------------+
Well here's the strategies that I used against
the bosses. I hope they're useful. Also note that
they get harder depending on the current difficulty
setting of the game, but the same strategy will
still apply.
Stage 1: To defeat the robot that you will
encounter sometime in the middle of
the level you must hit him in the center
on the right side of his body.
Make sure to avoid his two mechanical arms
on the top and bottom of his body.
The strategy for the big boss of Stage 1
is this:
Aim for his eyes. Also make sure to
avoid it's rotating arms. If you must fly
over the monster, do take notice that
the arms will slow down for a brief moment
and then speed up again after 2 to 4 secs.
This brief period is your window of
opportunity; but only fly over him if he's
too close to the bottom of the screen to
risk flying under him.
Also you will want to try to get him to
stay near the top of the screen so when
he does get to close to you, you'll be
able to make a clean get away by flying
under him.
Stage 2: This boss starts out as 1 big worm,
but if you shoot him right in the
center of his body, he'll split in half
to become several smaller worms.
Start off by shooting him in the middle
breaking him into 2 worms. Then shoot
their tails, building your way
on up to the head.
Stage 3: Watch out for the falling stones.
When you fly under one, it will
fall. Also expect more to keep
falling in approximately 3 or 4
second intervals.
To kill the boss, aim under him
where that upside down U shape is
exposing his chin. Thankfully he has
no physical attacks of his own, but
try not to let him touch you though.
Stage 4: On the way to the boss you'll run into
those spinning balls. Just stay near the
top until you know where the next is coming
from.
Once you reach the boss you will 1st
meet this big thing that looks like
a spiked football. Just dodge it. It
moves from Right to Left, so you want
to move up. Don't bother attacking the
spiked football(you can't kill it).
The real boss is a bird like monster.
A couple of shots destroys him easily.
Stage 5: The final boss of this game is a Dragon.
Luckily you just have to put up with his
head and neck. The way he moves is first
he'll move neck and head back, while he's
slowly moving his head back is when you
should fire into his mouth(his only
vulnerable spot). When he's coming back
towards be ready to go down in a hurry
and hide in the big area between his
head and neck(sorta making a round circle
shape). Also be careful because he
occasionally shoots, but this is seldom and
may only occur 4 or 5 times in the fight.
If your on ULTIMATE he'll shoot about every
3 or 4 times he pulls back.

| IV. Stage Codes |
+----------------------------------------------------+
Here's the codes for incase. It's listed by level
and level difficulty. Eagle being easiest and
ACE being the hardest.
I've listed the ULTIMATE Stage Codes separately
because this is what's opened up to you once you
have beaten the main game. Also it provides
a code for stage 1.
Difficulty|Eagle|Albatross| Ace |
----------+-----+---------+------+
Stage 2 |HGKM | HGNC | GBHL |
Stage 3 |CPFG | BMHB | MHCB |
Stage 4 |JJCM | DGBF | CDMN |

+----------------------------------------------------+
| |
| I couldn't manage to find the secret rooms in |
| the ULTIMATE stages. Well if I manage to find |
| them or if someone emails me telling me some or |
| all, I'll put them in a update of this guide. |
| |
| Well hope that this guide helped you. |
| Feel free to drop me a line. Bye! - JDP |
