PrinceWatercress plays Metal Force - Part 5 of 7


The game goes back to being relatively easier to get through after Mission 4. It's still fun, though.


Mission 5: Planet No. XIV


There's a plane enemy carrying a health pick-up that you can shoot down at the beginning of the stage. Be sure to do so.

The dragonfly enemy will fly towards you if you get close enough to it. 

The 1-Up in this stage is in plain view in the second section; just climb up and go left at the start of it.

You'll be dealing with an upper path and a lower path, and you'll need to chose between them at the end of the second section. Regardless of which path you choose, you'll have to deal with the waterfalls that will drag you off to the side and off the platform that they land on. They're much like the waterfalls from Toad Man's stage in Mega Man IV, and it's pretty awesome that the developers were able to replicate them.

The UFO enemy will give you a 1-Up if you shoot it down.

The boss here is a robot panther that runs back and forth. Shoot it, then jump back to the left where the door is and avoid the rocks that come down from the top of the screen when it headbutts the wall.
