PrinceWatercress plays Metal Force - Part 7 of 7


In this video, we finally beat the game, then get hinted at a sequel that was never to be.

First | Previous | End

Mission 7: Planet X


The flying enemy at the beginning will drop projectiles where you are at and will keep following you until you destroy it.

Some of the enemies from Mission 4, such as the rock dropper and the walking mechs, return here. The walking mech near the end of the first section has a 1-Up if you destroy it on a platform.

The second section has a lot of the enemies with the blasters. You'll need to avoid getting shot while climbing up a ladder, then hug the left wall on the subsequent pit to take out all the enemies carefully and get yourself a continue. Be ready to jump to the left off the platform near the end when you see the edge of the floor near the top so you don't get hit by spikes. 

The UFO enemy has a five-way shot that we can finally see now that we have to get away from it in order to shoot down.

The pipes that shoot out the gas are back; avoid the gas/smoke/whatever it is that comes out of them.

You'll need to jump on the white parts of the wall at the end of the section with all the humanoid enemies to get to the ladder.

The boss is a flying purple ship that will shoot a five-way shot at you. Avoid the projectiles, jump and shoot, duck when it comes your way, then run to the side opposite the boss and repeat the process. If you know what you're doing, you can beat this boss easily.

When you beat the boss, you'll see the ending sequence. The hero escapes before the base self-destructs, and you'll have to return to base back on Earth in order to take care of things there. Unfortunately, the sequel never happened, as the publisher and developer of this game both stopped developing console games. Regardless, you just beat Metal Force!
