=== Parts strategy === | |||
There are only 40 bolts in the game (compared to a total part cost of 89), but three save states. In order to enjoy all the parts, you can play through the game following three different strategies. The following is just a suggestion: | |||
# Exit part and all '''Mega Buster parts''', except Laser or Arrow shots (38 bolts): play using mostly the Mega Buster. | |||
# Exit part and all '''Energy & Dexterity parts''' (40 bolts): play using mostly the Special Weapons. | |||
# Exit part, both '''Extra-Life parts''' and either Laser or Arrow shot (19 bolts): play using less parts, but you have many more extra lives. | |||
