Well, this didn't take long.
Act 4 - Counterattack
You'll wake up in India, a prisoner of Central Commmand. The man who confronts you has no choice but to eliminate you.
Collect whatever power-ups you need, then go to the right. You'll face the Indian guy from earlier, who flies on a magic carpet and shoots fireballs downward. The upward-facing chevron is the best weapon, since you can hit him directly from below. He shoots fireballs every so often, so stay on the move.
The second form is three face inside the statue at the lower-right. These things will shoot fireballs at you every few seconds. The fireballs will go low, medium, high, medium, low, medium, high and just keep going up and down like this. Jump over the low and medium fireballs and strike the heads with either your sword or your Force power-up.
During the second form, there are some gems that contain more power-ups, including a 3-way shot and a scroll for 30 Force. You'll definitely need these for this form of the boss.
After the boss, you'll find out that nations are preparing for war against the evil Siragane, who is the mastermind behind this whole plot.
You'll soon be able to move again. Head to the right, avoiding spikes that move up and down as well as falling rocks that come down when you get close enough. You'll be dealing with the birds again, too.
Some of the columns you'll be climbing on have certain parts that are a solid color without the brick pattern, and two red lines on the top and bottom. You can move to the other side on these partitions to get to the next column. You'll have to switch back and forth to both avoid some of the falling rocks and trigger their falling animation at the same time.
The skulls on the columns shoot fireballs that can be easily avoided if you don't go too fast, or if you double back on the partitions in the columns.
You'll find the upwards boomerang from the last battle midway through the stage. You'll need this for the final boss.
If you're quick enough, you can get past the climbing guys that drop down and kick you without taking damage. Just get to the next pillar as quickly as possible and you'll usually avoid them.
On the last pillar, climb all the way up before jumping to the right so you don't fall into the pit near the door to the final boss.
The final boss is Siragane himself. He wants the Dragon Sword to boost his power by nearly double and control minds, and just bringing the sword to him ups his power.
Siragane moves back and forth at the top of the screen. He will fire lasers down from his hands at the left, middle and right sides of the screen whenever he reaches them, but they are easily avoidable. Use the upwards boomerange to easily hit him, and you'll soon face his second form.
The second form is mostly the same, but he fires fireballs in an arcing pattern when he's in the fireballs.
His third form fires nothing but fireballs. The first six fireballs fire all at once and at different angles, depending on where you are. The second four fire slowly and fixate on your current position. Stay on the move and keep using the upwards boomerang, and if you run out of Force, switch between moving away from the fireballs and jump slashing Siragane's face.
When you beat the third form, you've done it! You've won!
