PrinceWatercress plays Alien Syndrome (Game Gear) AGAIN - Part 5 of 5

Well, at least I beat this boss before. At least I was able to easily figure things out a little more quickly this time.

Round 5: Mother Alien

You'll start in a chamber where you can select any weapon you want. If you don't have it already, get the laser. Once you go north, you'll face the final boss.

The weak point is the boss' face, but as you fire at it, you will also have to move away from the hands. The left one hits first, then the right. There will also be cavities in the shoulders that open up and reveal worms that slowly crawl towards you. They won't be the only enemies, as the head will also spawn the red aliens from Round 2. Thankfully, all these body parts can be destroyed, and when you destroy the hands, you'll be able to freely move around. Of course, you'll want to keep firing as you move around; this will allow you to destroy the shoulders in addition to the hands.

Once the hands are down, the body will move up and down, while the head will also shoot out gray balls. You'll want to shoot at them as they move from the sides of the screen towards the head and destroy at least one so you can get away from the rest of the balls. For best results, shoot south to make it easy to get away. In the meantime, the boss will spit balls, first to the left, then to the center, then to the right, then back to the center, then back to the left before repeating the pattern. Keep shooting at the head without getting shot at yourself, and eventually you'll beat the Mother Alien and beat the game!
