Level
5
This level appeared in Thunder Force 2. It has a rather nasty primary
colors + olive green theme. Ground weapons will help. |
 |
There
is a high-speed section to the level. STAY ON THE TOP!! Of course,
the weird effect from the colors may bring on a seizure. |
 |
Um,
this is the boss. It was also the boss of Ellis (the ice planet)
level of TF3. Not too hard. Lancer or Hunter would be your best
choice. |
Level
6
This level is similar to Level 6 on TF3. This time, though, you
have to actually shoot your way into the ship, back out, and then
fight the boss. |
|
| These
gun turrets are pesky - they come back when you kill 'em |
|
| This
is the mid-level boss. I think that it might have been the Level
6 boss of TF3 (although TF3 actually took you all the way around
the ship before allowing you to enter). It's simple to beat. Just
zip in and out between the lasers that it shoots and avoid the boss's
support fire at the same time. :) |
|
| The
level boss. It's weaponry is vaguely similar to the final boss of
TF3, although it's attack is different (and it's easier to beat,
too). Dodge everything you can and try to get some lucky shots. |

Level
7
Level 7 is identical to Level 7 of TF3. Graphically, it is the best
level in the game. Note the blue (S) power-up - it's the shield.
If you think it's a Saber, you may or may not be pleasantly surprised.

Level
7 can get a bit cramped - having the ground weapon will help immeasurable.
WaveGun: Oops. This would be the last of your five weapons - the
Wave gun. it goes through walls, etc. Weak against most bosses,
but nice for clearing out the levels. |
Level
8... eh.... hmmm....er....
The rest of my pictures, uh, don't seem to exist. Sorry, I didn't
mean to pull a GamePro/Nintendo Power on you. For level 7, just
watch out for the "gates" that come down and just let you through.
One of them won't. The "barrier-wall" mid-level boss isn't hard
if you are patient and play defensively. The level boss is another
barrier wall except that it has 4 boxes that occupy most of the
screen and try to crush you. Again, play defensively. You can tell
which way the boxes will move by looking at which arrow lights up
in each (If I'd only noticed this way back when I used to play TF3).
Level 8 isn't too long, although it's longer (and different) than
the last level of TF3. The final boss isn't too memorable, although
it can get a bit tricky. Have lots of power-ups and a few extra
lives (real useful stuff, these hints). |
