More R-Type Final, now on R-Typer difficulty.


One thing that's cool is that I found that this game does indeed seem to have the R-Type III ships. The R90 Ragnarok is like the ship with the shadow force from III, and its beam weapon is the rapid fire Hyper weapon from III.

I also have a feeling the Strike Bomber is supposed to be like III's normal ship. It's like the R9, except that its beam weapon is incredibly powerful. It also feels cheap to use, because it can take out the stage 2, 3 and 4 boss with a single hit!! But it can minimize a few of the parts that would otherwise feel tedious (it can take out the stage 1 boss, which often seems to last way too long, with only three hits).

So far, R-Typer doesn't seem that difficult (it's still easier than R-Type Delta), but I accidentally took the path to stage F-C last time (the stage you have to beat on a single life). I'd prefer to go through normal stage F-A. I've restarted the game, and am back to stage 5 (where the decisive path split is made). If I screw up and go to F-C again, I may have to purposefully go to F-B just to avoid C.
I LOOOOOOVE Flying Omelette!!
