PrinceWatercress plays GG Aleste - Part 4 of 8


In this entry, we get a short bonus game before getting back into action.


Round 4

The game starts with a bonus area. Shoot down all the ships in a formation to get P-chips and secondary weapon strength increases. You can only shoot your basic "tic-tac" gun in the bonus area, and enemies don't destroy you if they run into you. The more ships you shoot down, the more points you get at the end, and if you destroy them all, you'll get a perfect bonus of 200,000 points and two extra lives (you earn an extra life every 100,000 points).

Once you're out of the bonus area, you'll be able to fire your secondary weapon again, but you'll also be in danger once again, so keep an eye out for enemies.

Missiles will start flying out from the top of the screen. Be ready to avoid them or shoot them down, as they are fast.

The boss here is some sort of ship that fires off those Gundam robots as well as missiles that come down from the sides. For the first phase, stay in the bottom center when you want to fire so you can damage the center of the ship. If you have the D weapon or H weapon, you can more or less stay in that position for the whole phase, as nothing will be able to touch you.

In the second phase, just stay in the bottom center and keep firing at the same weak point. All the green projectiles will miss you, and you can easily shoot down the middle projectile of the red three-way shot. It won't be long until you are off to Round 5.
