I can't remember if this one was released before or after R-Type 2. In any case it's another very competent Irem shooter and the tendrils animation is very well done.
... I kept expecting this thing to have a hidden boss because of that enigmatic ending that taunts you. I have power, I have intelligence, but I've got no secret boss for ya!
Definitely some borrowing here from R-Type. Not necessarily the gameplay but some of the ideas such as in the level layout and in the second level with the spaceship monster that needs to be defeated in parts. I know Gradius also did this but they probably got it from R-Type. Its interesting how many shmups have picked up the idea of a large enemy that needs to be defeated in parts.
R-Type was the first coming with the Mothership-Stage thing, and both games are IREM's master pieces. I always think the name for this company was taken from Howard Phillips Lovecraft's "The Nameless City".
@@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115 Oh, was the word Irem first mentioned in that story? I don't know. Irem is a Japanese company and I am not sure how well known Lovecraft was during the 70s and the 80s in Japan.

I imagine it's based on a very simple program.
It was released a month after R-Type II.
you're perfectly play the game in many way... respect...

Excellently played, Al, and I'm sure the sixth boss (the Darya) would make any trypophobes flip out! 😛
I've never even heard of this one but it looks rad, great playing too!
I love this game ! , it looks like a shrunk Starship flighting virus inside a human body !
Is basically R Type with a new skin.
....why did they give the first boss sexy legs

@@TheDutchGhost I bet he will, since his writing were the origin for H R Giger's work (Alien), and a well known name for any fantasy fan.
I think I am going to rewatch Fantastic Voyage.
