***********************************************************************
*
-------
Stage 1
-------
Stage 1 Mini-boss: Alien Tank:
Grab the laser and stand to the far right corner. Turn back and
shoot. Way to easy for a mini-boss.
Stage 1 Boss: Alien Tortoise
See that little red/purple heart on the bottom? That's where it
is vulnerable. Beware of stray bullets and the things it can
shoot out from it's mouth and back. Careful of it's flame breath
too.
-------
Stage 2
-------
Stage 2 Boss: Alien Spider
I thought spiders had 8 legs! This one has six... Oh well
anyways, shoot the "legs" and the laser tail gun and
finally the red spot. When it starts to try to crush you, move
away in any direction and blast everywhere.
-------
Stage 3
-------
Stage 3 Mini-boss: Spike (Form 1)
Grab the hangers and let loose a barrage of bullets while staying
away for it's tail.
Stage 3 Mini-boss: Spike (Form 2)
Shoot the missiles; avoid the legs. Simple as that.
Stage 3 Mini-boss: Spike (Form 3)
Man, this dude never quits! Now it's spikes are located next to
it's vulnerable spot. It'll try to ram the wall from wher you
where hanging. This guys is pretty tough even in easy mode.
Stage 3: Mini-boss: Troop Dropper
Aim for the red spot. That's all I have to say.
Stage 3 Mini-boss: Alien Cyborgs
It'll be easier to hang left on the ceiling and blast away. The
gold one can jump quite high to catch you off guard so be careful.
Stage 3 Boss:
Aaarrrggghhh! A huge robot skeleton! Aim for the head while
avoiding it's fire breath, eye lasers, and a few occasional bombs
it may drop out.
-------
Stage 4
-------
Stage 4 Mini-boss: Road Tank
Jump up and keep shooting. Need I say anymore?
Stage 4 Mini-boss: Airship
There is no way to kill this boss. Avoid it's fire. Shoot the
grey dude while dodging or shooting the red ones.
Stage 4 Mini-boss: Junk Core
Avoid the missiles and jump and fire away. Pretty easy.
Stage 4 Mini-boss: Alien Samarai
It's best to stay in one spot and jump if he's firing anything or
trying to slash at you.
Stage 4 Boss: Airship
Woohoo! Ride the missiles! Man, is this dude hard! Take out the
side barriers and finally the core.
-------
Stage 5
-------
Stage 5 Boss: The Mind
A laser will make quick work of this boss. Watch out for
tentacles
and other stuff. Aim of the eye.
-------
Stage 6
-------
Stage 6 Mini-boss: Alien Larvae
The spread cannon can also make this guy a goner. Shoot when the
mouth is opened.
Stage 6 Mini-boss: The Heart
Shoot the pods on the top and bottom and the rest is simple.
Stage 6 Mini-boss: Alien Frog
Get on the face and shoot as much as you can. If you get in it's
face and shoot it, it'll be finished quickly.
Stage 6 Mini-boss: Alien Dragon
He'll start teleporting like crazy once you've shot him enough
times. Blast away.
Stage 6 Boss: Overlord
...goodness...oh my...wow...it's like...geez...what the...
NOTE: If you've played on the HARD mode select, then you'll find a nice
surprise waiting for you at the end.
