This is it! We've reached the epic confrontation with the virus that has taken control of the entire planet! This is gonna get nasty!
Stage 5 (continued)
After you beat the mini-boss, destroy the wall.
The big flashing globes that produce the force fields that can kill you are indestructible, so move past them when the fields are down. The fields stop working when the boss music kicks in.
The boss here is a giant robot. The head produces three-way shots, and both hands do it too. The hands can also shoot lasers straight to the other side. Stand just below the path of the straight-flying projectile in the head's three-way shot and pummel the head with your weapons. If you're standing between the path of that straight shot and the higher laser of the two, you're doing it right.
Stage 6
There's a whole lot of new enemies here. There are enemies that walk on the walls and fire on you. The green brains of the skull enemies can come out after you destroy their main bodies, and can stick to you to keep you from firing until they disappear.
Just like last stage, there are force field generators that will destroy you. Be ready to move past them when they're down.
To get past the crushing wall, stay at the top and wait for almost all of it to show up. Go straight down and let your barriers and personal shield take the damage. You want to get to the other side as soon as possible to avoid a one-hit kill.
The blue enemies that move to the top and then try to ram into you from behind will also shoot green fireballs that circle around the screen. Believe it or not, you actually have to shoot them down in order to get rid of them.
The mini-boss here is a set of eyes that shoot those cursed green fireballs. Move in the same direction as the fireballs and keep firing so you can take out both the boss and the fireballs at the same time. If you have powerful weapons, this is far easier compared to if you don't.
The second half of this stage is a nightmare. Just keep firing at everything, and avoid all those lasers! By all means, keep your shields high. There is a barrier power-up near the end, but that's about it.
The boss is actually really easy if you know what to do. Guess what? You probably didn't even see this coming, especially if you've played through the game before and found this boss difficult. Get up to one of the eyes before the fight begins and stand right in front of it with guns a-blazing. You'll be able to finish the fight before it even starts, and you won't have to deal with the random enemy fire or the arms of this final boss. Yes, this is the final boss...if you can believe it.
When you beat the game, you'll free Princess Maria! You did it!
Wait. No, you didn't.
Get all the speed power-ups and be ready to move. There are no enemies here except for whatever walls you're about to crash in. This part moves faster and faster, but it can be done.
When you make it out, you've finally finished the game.
