  • Extra option

    Beat the game with a high ranking to access a "Gallery" option from the main menu. Select it to view various graphics depicting the ships, weapons, and battles in the game.

  • Start with gunpods

    Begin a game and reach a point where various gunpods have already been obtained. Then, intentionally lose the game and use all remaining lives. Allow the timer to reach zero on the continue screen. Allow the title screen to reappear and select "Game Start". Now select a ship and equip it as desired with the gunpods that are now available. The selected gunpods will also reappear automatically as a standard weapon after a life is lost during the next game.
