Well I did it on easy and I shan’t be doing it again so I’ll claim my trophy. Overall it’s a fine enough game

The Round Vulcan is by far the most useful weapon imo

It was especially useful in the horizontal levels with all the turrets on the floor/ceiling, you could sweep it back and forth and clear them out. Also the hopping robots in the last level since they fire at you when you’re on the same vertical plane

The horizontal stages are definitely way better than the vertical ones imo

the vertical levels are really cool but they’re more aggravating. every time that it feels like i die when i shouldn’t have it’s on a vertical stage

I think the backgrounds and how the sprites move in relation to it is a little disorienting and can make spatial judgment kind of weird in the vertical stages. At least that seemed to happen to me sometimes

theres a trick on the stage 3 midboss where you can position yourself between its cannons and just fire the twin shot at it to kill it really fast but the way you move with the bg makes it a lot harder to position than i expect

The bosses were all pretty cool imo but the only one that gave me real trouble was the last one since there’s just a ton of poo poo flying around the screen.

pretty much the entire pocky & rocky/kikikaikai series is very fun, with the exception of the gba game which i don't like

a new one's coming out this year (pocky and rocky reshrined), by the dudes that did the wild guns and ninja warriors updates/revivals. gonna be real fun.

id rather play and not finish pocky and rocky 100 times than play another stage of axelay which somehow wears out its welcome by stage 4
