The sixth round, named Mockstar, takes place on a world full of warm clouds. It is home to a considerably aggressive enemy known as Poyon. All the enemies on Mockstar will begin to fire upon Opa-Opa almost as quickly as they appear on the screen. Your best defense against this is to maximize your attack range with the 7-Way Shot. Fire it continuously to destroy the enemies before they have a chance to attack. You might also decide to purchase a Laser Beam, but this will require you to be vigilant and attack the Poyons and Squares as soon as you spot them. Don't slow down!

Occupants

Base

The bases in Mockstar are called Barungas. They float on top of clouds, and are quite scattered throughout the level. They produce the enemy known as Poyon, and they do so continuously. Be sure to attack up close if you use the 7-Way Shot in order to defeat them quickly.

Enemies

Poyon Mukoron

The Poyon are produced by the bases in this world. They seek to collide with Opa-Opa wherever he is, and they will hunt him down. They must overcome their own momentum, so it's easy to escape from them just by turning around and flying in the other direction.

These enemies were first seen in Plaleaf. As before, they show up in groups of four and march across the screen, shooting at Opa-Opa. Watch out that you don't fly into them when they appear.

Boterin Square

Reappearing from Tabas, the Boterins still appear in large column formations. They will fire at Opa-Opa together, as they slide back and forth within their formation.

Last seen in the stage of Dolimicca, Squares continue to defy the scroll of the screen. While the 7-Way Shot is active, they aren't much of a threat, but once it runs out, be careful.

Mechafish Biriyan

The school of machinal fished from La Dune reappear here. They will still arrive in a triangular squadron of ten, "swimming" across the screen.

Also reappearing from Dolimicca, the Biriyan appear in groups of four. They move a short distance and fire at Opa-Opa, and repeat.

Boss

The boss of Mockstar is an unusual creature known as Winkron, consisting of a single eyeball the arrives from the left side of the screen. It travels to the middle and releases six evenly spaced out arms of clouds. The clouds are dangerous to Opa-Opa, and once they extend, he must be careful never to get hit by them as they rotate clockwise around the screen. The speed of the rotation increases gradually as time goes by. Naturally, the eyeball is the only weak point, and it is only vulnerable to attack when the eyelid is not closed. Successful attacks tend to cause the eyelids to shut. Your only real chance to attack is when you are lined up left and right with the eyeball. Be sure to get in as many shots as you possibly can before moving to avoid getting hit by the clouds. If you get close enough, it's possible to attack with bombs, and it takes 12 bombs to defeat Winkron, regardless of the type of bomb used.
