Suggested combinations[edit]

  • Exit part

This item is absolutely necessary to save lots of time when re-visiting previously cleared stages looking for missing bolts.

  • Auto Shoot + Boost Part + Shooting Part + High Speed Charge (23 bolts)

These four items combined allow a continuous shower of bullets. Just hold the fire button down, and navigate any stage.

  • Super Recover + Energy Balancer + Energy Saver + Exchanger (20 bolts)

With these four items equipped the player will be able to play the game using almost exclusively the special weapons.

  • Spare Extra + Spare Charger

These two items have some use only if equipped at the same time.

Parts strategy[edit]

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:

  1. Exit part and all Mega Buster parts, except Laser or Arrow shots (38 bolts): play using mostly the Mega Buster.
  2. Exit part and all Energy & Dexterity parts (40 bolts): play using mostly the Special Weapons.
  3. 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.
