Welcome to the game. Once Sygnus has appeared on the screen in mid-air and landed on the ground after his Vernier jump-jets have charged up, start marching to the right as three Karura come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you have fired off enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, two more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you have fired enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, drop off the edge of the platform to land in the dirt below, as five Hanbaga come zigzagging towards you while firing some fast-moving projectiles at you - and once you have fired off a shot at each of them to destroy them, three more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of these, to destroy them, continue marching to the right, as two more Karura come marching towards you, while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, a Haken will come marching up towards you, while firing shots at you. Once you have fired enough of your own shots at it to destroy it, an eleventh Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you have fired enough of your own shots at it to destroy it, six more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you, while firing some more fast-moving projectiles at you; once you have fired a shot at each of these to destroy them, a Ball will come floating towards you. Once you have fired one shot at it to destroy it, three more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, two more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you while firing some more fast-moving projectiles at you. Once you've fired a shot at both of these to destroy them, two more Karura will come marching towards you, while firing shots at you; once you have fired enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, five more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you while firing some more fast-moving projectiles at you, as three more Balls come floating towards you. Once you've fired a shot at each of them to destroy them, two more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired off enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, activate your Vernier jump-jets in order to be carried up to the next platform. Once you have landed on the next platform continue marching to the right as you come to an enormous tank cannon that is firing laser beams at you; once you have fired enough shots at it to blast it off its stand, two more Balls will come floating towards you, as three more Hanbaga come zigzagging towards you while firing some more fast-moving projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to destroy them, three more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of these, to destroy them, three more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you, while firing more fast-moving projectiles at you. Once you have fired a shot at each of them to destroy them, you will come to an enormous black space probe (known as a "Goruba", written in Katakana as ゴルバ) that is firing shots at you from each of its three green windows and homing missiles at you from directly below its second window - and once you have fired ennough of your own shots at each of the probe's three windows to destroy them, continue marching to the right until Sygnus freezes in mid-step and the text of "CAME TO AN END OF INTRODUCTION." appears on the screen. You will then receive 10 bonus points for every tenth of a second you have remaining - and the text "FIGHT CONTINUOUSLY!" will appear on the screen just before the two words that make up the game's title slide into place, from the bottom and top of the screen respectively; however, this will not occur on any of the seven subsequent rounds.

Once Sygnus has reappeared, he will continue marching to the right (assuming you were still pushing your joystick in that direction), as two more Karura come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you have fired enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, two more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you, while firing some more fast-moving projectiles at you. Once you've fired a shot at both of these, to destroy them, three more Hanbaga will zigzag towards you while firing more fast-moving projectiles at you, as three more Karura march towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, a second Haken will come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you've fired enough of your own shots at it, to destroy it, a Raiden will come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you have fired enough of your own shots at it to destroy it three more Karura will march towards you while firing shots at you. Once you've fired off enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, five more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them three more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you while firing off more fast-moving projectiles at you as two more Karura come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them three more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you while firing more fast-moving projectiles at you; once you have fired a shot at each of them to destroy them, two more Balls will come floating towards you. Once you fire a shot at both of these to destroy them, two more Karura will drop down in front of you - and once you've fired enough shots at both of them to destroy them, two more Balls will come floating towards you, as a thirty-ninth Karura comes marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you've fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, two more Hanbaga will come zigzagging towards you while firing more fast-moving projectiles at you as three more Karura come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you've fired enough of your own shots at each of these to destroy them, three more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you've fired enough of your own shots at each of these to destroy them, another Raiden will come marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at it, to destroy it, two more Balls will come floating towards you. Once you have fired a shot at both of these to destroy them, a thirteenth Ball will come floating towards you; once you have fired a shot at it to destroy it, drop down off the edge of the platform to land in the dirt below as two more Balls come floating towards you. Once you have fired a shot at both of them to destroy them, activate your Vernier jump-jets in order to be carried up to the next platform - and once you have landed on that next platform, continue marching to the right as two more Karura come marching towards you, while firing shots at you. Once you've fired enough of your own shots at both of these to destroy them, a third Haken will come marching towards you (while firing shots at you); once you've fired enough of your own shots at it to destroy it, three more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you. Once you have fired enough shots at each of these to destroy them, you will come to another enormous tank cannon firing laser beams at you - and once you have fired enough shots at it to blast it off its stand, a fourth Haken will come marching towards you while firing shots at you as a sixteenth Ball comes floating towards you. Once you fire enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, two more Karura will come marching towards you while firing shots at you; once you've fired enough of your own shots at both of them to destroy them, you will come to another enormous "Goruba", that is firing shots at you from its three windows, and homing missiles at you from directly below its second window. Once you fire enough of your own shots at each of this Goruba's windows (to destroy them), two more Balls will come floating towards you as a fifty-third Karura comes marching towards you while firing shots at you - and once you have fired enough of your own shots at each of them to destroy them, a twenty-first Ball will come floating towards you. Once you've fired one shot at it to destroy it, continue marching to the right until Sygnus freezes in mid-step for a second time and the text "CONGRATULATIONS! ROUND 1 CLEARED" appears on the screen; you will then receive 10 more bonus points for every tenth of a second you have remaining and the text of "CONTINUED ON NEXT ROUND" will then appear on the screen before it fades back out to the shot of Sygnus's operator in his cockpit (who will proceed on to the territorial area of Esperuntuwa). It is also worth noting that the four Kanji characters that make up the Japanese naming for the two enormous tank cannons on this round are 巨大大砲 - which read as Kyōdai Taihō.
