Solvalou/Area 1

Welcome to the game. Once that text "GET READY!" has appeared in centre of the screen, you will come to a Derota, two Barra, and two Garu Barra on the right side of the screen; the Derota will be firing their projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them, and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, three Toroids will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen while rotating on their X-axes and firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to two more Derota, two more Barra and two more Garu Barra on the left side of the screen - and again, the two Derota will be firing their projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, three more Toroids will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen, while rotating on their X-axes and firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, your gunsight will detect the presence of a Sol if you move it over the right side of the screen; once you have dropped a bomb on this first Sol of the game, it will reveal itself to you. Once you have dropped a second bomb on this Sol to kill it, four more Toroids will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen while rotating on their X-axes and firing projectiles at you; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to a fifth Garu Barra on the right side of the screen. Once you have moved your gunsight over it and dropped a bomb on it to kill it, eight more Toroids will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen, while rotating on their X-axes and firing projectiles at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to Boza Logram on the left side of the screen. As with the three Derota, it will attack by firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over its core and dropped a bomb on it to kill it, two Torkan will come flying towards you from the right side of the screen before firing a projectile at you and flying away off the left side of the screen; once you have fired a shot at both of them to kill them, three more Torkan will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen, before firing a projectile at you and flying away off of the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at both of them to kill them, you will come to a fifth Barra and a fourth Derota on right side of the screen - and once again, the Derota will be firing their projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on both of them to kill them, three more Torkan will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen, before firing a projectile at you and flying away off the right side of the screen. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to a sixth Garu Barra, a Garu Derota, a Domogram, two more Derota and three more Barra on the right side of the screen; the Garu Derota, the Domogram and the two Derota will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped bomb on each of them to kill them, eight more Toroids will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen while rotating on their X-axes and afiring projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to three more Domograms, five more Derota, and three more Barra on the right side of the screen - and the three Domograms and the five Derota will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, eight more Toroids will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen while rotating on their X-axes and firing off projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, three Zakato will materialize ahead of you and slowly fly towards you; if you do not shoot them in time, they will self-destruct and fire off a projectile at you, so once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to two more Barra, two more Derota, four more Domograms, and a second Boza Logram on the right side of the screen. The two Derota, the four Domograms and the Boza Logram will all be firing projectiles at you - so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, three Zoshi, three more Toroids and three more Torkan will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen while firing projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, your gunsight will detect the presence of two more invisible Sol if you move it over the centre of the screen; once you have dropped a bomb on both of these Sol, they will reveal themselves to you. Once you have dropped a second bomb on both of these Sol to kill them, the music that you are currently hearing from the Yamaha YM-2151 will fade out to indicate that you have proceeded to the second part of the area.

Once the music has changed to something different, you will come to a ninth Domogram on a bridge above you on the left side of the screen; yet again, it will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over it and dropped a bomb on it to kill it, two Grobdas (which are, for a second time, back on the side of evil) will come sailing towards you from the right side of the screen, while afiring projectiles at you (unlike their appearances in the two previous games, they can actually attack here). Once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on both of them to kill them, you will come to a tenth Domogram on another bridge above you on the left side of the screen - and for a fifth time, it will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over it, and dropped a bomb on it to kill it, three more Grobdas will come asailing towards you from the right side of the screen while firing projectiles at you. Once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, you will come to two more Domograms on a third bridge above you on the left side of the screen; for a sixth time, they will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on both of them to kill them, four more Grobdas will come sailing towards you from the right side of the screen while firing projectiles at you. Once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped bomb on each of them to kill them, eight more Toroids will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen while rotating on their X-axes and firing projectiles at you - and once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to three more Domograms on the right side of the screen. For a seventh time, they will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them, and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, two enormous (and indestructible) towers will appear in front of you; once you have flown through the gap between them (flying in to either of them will count as a hit) you will come to three more Derota, on the left side of the screen. For a seventh time, they will be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped bomb on each of them to kill them, two more enormous (and indestructible) towers will appear in front of you - and once you have flown through the gap between them (again, flying into either of them will count as a hit), you will come to a second Garu Derota and four more Domograms on the right side of the screen. They will all be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them, and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, four more Zoshi will come flying towards you while firing projectiles at you; once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, you will come to six more Derota and a third Garu Derota on the right side of the screen. Again, they will all be firing projectiles at you, so once you have moved your gunsight over them and dropped a bomb on each of them to kill them, a group of eight more Torkan will come flying towards you from the left side of the screen before firing a projectile at you and flying off the right side of the screen - and once you have fired a shot at each of them to kill them, the music that you are currently hearing from the Yamaha YM-2151 will fade out to indicate that you have proceeded to the third part of the area. The first Andor Genesis Mothership awaits...
