**Remember that the weak point on the arms is the one off-color orb in the middle of the arm. Once the arms are removed, the remaining blob is very little of a threat to the Vic Viper, other than collision. If there are no other Tentacles to worry about, you can concentrate your laser fire on the blob until it shrivels up and gets destroyed. There can be up to three Tentacles on the screen together. Make sure you prioritize the biggest threat to your safety. | **Remember that the weak point on the arms is the one off-color orb in the middle of the arm.

* As mentioned above, the sub-boss of this stage is the same as the rest of its contents: more Tentacles. The only difference is that space will stop flying by while you battle against the remaining creatures. Continue with the same strategy of removing the bullet firing arms first, and then concentrating fire on the remaining blob. Do this until the Big Core shows up. At that time, any remaining Tentacles will automatically lose their arms, and drift off the left side of the screen. Be careful since collision is still possible. | * As mentioned above, the sub-boss of this stage is the same as the rest of its contents: more Tentacles.
