Earth is almost flooded in Stage 1; its oceans and caves have been colonized by aliens in Stage 2; Jupiter was turned into a star in Stage 3; and Neptune had been blown into pieces in Stage 4. How depressing.

Little known fact: Pulstar and Blazing Star were created by ex-IREM employees (it was confirmed) that we’re the maker of the original R-Type trilogy, so this is technically R-Type 4, just changed to not actually be R-Type since IREM still had/has the copyright on it. Blazing Star of course would be the 2D R-Type Delta considering the amount of ship options in Blazing Star itself plus the extra 3 ships in the R-9A Arrowhead, the R-9C Warhead, and the R-9ø Ragnarok.

For all those who say this game is an R-Type clone: The rumor is that after several employees who worked on this game left Irem, they worked on this one. So, there is going to be some similarities. I suppose this game could be considered an unofficial R-Type spinoff.

Yeah, as I understand it, Pulstar was supposed to be R-Type 4. Irem scrapped the project, and the team took the work that they had already done and made it into this game.

Pulstar was so awesome. I too I remember reading in Die Hard GameFan and other places that Pulstar was going to be R-Type 4. The sequel, Blazing Star, was also developed by Aicom but under a different name, Yumekobo. Although the gameplay was much faster paced than R-Type and Pulstar. Interestingly, Blazing Star's development name was "Pulstar Blast". Also, for those that haven't played it or heard of if, LAST RESORT on Neo Geo has a lot of graphical similarities to R-Type II. I wouldn't be surprised at all if some of the Irem staff that worked on R-Type II also worked on Last Resort at SNK.

Hmmm.. was never that enamored with Pulstar. The graphics were just too garish and cheesy compared to the original R-Type 8 years prior - they looked like a Mega Drive shooter on steroids. Last Resort was cool and atmopsheric but also fell well short of the first two RT coin-ops.

I meant to rate this comment down, In this game, certain graphics would make the game almost unwinnable. Thus, your ship "phases through" those items that appear after bosses or as part of fancy graphics. Trust me, I beat this game before. Also, the Eternal Centipede(fourth boss) is in the background, and does not hit you until it goes into the foreground.

The bullet patterns and music is very different, many of the enemies(though not all) are not at all based on R-Type, and it was worked on by ex-Irem people.
