Blue Dragon | Table of Contents | Walkthrough

At several points in the game, Shu and company will find themselves at the controls of an Ancient flying device called a Mechat. During these sections, the game becomes essentially an on-rails shooter, with the player controlling the mechat's weapons while the craft follows or circles the target.

1 HUD
- 1.1 Health
- 1.2 Weapons
2 Controls

[edit] HUD

The Head-Up Display for these sections displays a number of statistics about your Mechat's status.

In the top-left corner of the screen are the HP meter and heat gauge.

[edit] Health

Every hit you take will decrease the HP meter. If it reaches zero, the game will end.

[edit] Weapons

The Mechat's main weapon is a machine gun, which has unlimited ammo but can overheat if fired continuously for prolonged periods. If the heat gauge fills, you will be temporarily unable to fire the machine gun, until the gauge empties again.

In the lower right corner, a icon will be displayed for each missile you have remaining. Additional missiles can be collected by shooting down enemies or the projectiles they fire at your Mechat.
