</nowiki></pre>[[Start|screen1]]
<p class="thickgray">Continue</p>
<p class="smallprint">Starfighter Johansson 2016</p></p></center><center><p>Colorful bullets soar through the sky with frantic pace as generic techno slowly reaches its pointless climax and your nerves are starting to act up. The mid boss is right before you, what do you do?
[[Shoot|screen3]]
[[Dodge|screen3]]</p></center><center><p>Your action was successful! The mid boss soon goes down in an inferno of fire and twisted metal as you continue your flight towards your main goal: the first real boss. You see a shimmering item at your far left. It's a medal. You could risk picking it up but there are thick enemy bullet patterns at that part of the screen right now. What do you do?
[[Try to take it|screen4]]
[[Move a bit closer at least|screen4]]</p></center><center><p>Get ready kid!
Small enemies come from out of nowhere. Constantly shooting at your ship while you skillfully avoid taking damage and try to get a feel for how the scoring system works. A swarm of homing missiles, that however are destructable, surrounds you. What do you do?
[[Shoot|screen2]]
[[Dodge|screen2]]</p></center><center><p>The item disappears just as you are about to make a move and your attention again turns to the main stage 1 boss. You must be getting close. Your multiplier is going up nicely and the music seems to get more catchy. And suddenly the screen goes a bit darker. An angry alarm goes off.
"WARNING!! WARNING!! HUGE BATTLE SHIP IS APPROACHING"
[[Brace yourself|screen5]]
[[Enjoy your carefree confidence|screen5]]</p></center><center><p>The boss, a huge robot snake, releases relentless bullet storms at you and you immediately drop a smart bomb of sheer fear. This clears the screen from projectiles for a moment as the snake gets ready to launch another attack.
You realize that you have to get it to its second formation to change the bullet pattern that is getting the better of you. Just a couple more shots!
[[Shoot|screen6]]
[[Dodge|screen6]]
</p></center><center><p>The snake loses its head and in its place three chainguns pop out. The attack pattern changes, but for the worse. Your only option at this point is to ride it out as best as you can.
[[Dodge|screen7]]</p></center><center><p>There! A small window through the bullets! You immediately act on your glimmer of hope and advance through the sea of death as the chainguns explode one after another. You're closing in on the snakes weakest point, the core. As soon as the last chaingun is taken out you see the glowing centre of the mechanical beast.
[[Fire laser|screen8]]</p></center><center><p>The boss lets out a deafening roar as it explodes into millions of tiny particles and you realize that the first battle is won. After a quick breather while the point counter calculated your efforts it's on to the next stage.
[[Stage 2|screen9]]</p></center><center><p>The enemies are noticeably faster at the second stage and their shots seem to be slightly homing onto your ship at all times. Your controller is getting warm and sticky from your firm grip but you haven't got the time to take a break.
[[Shoot|screen10]]
[[Dodge|screen10]]</p></center><center><p>The midboss. It's already here. You thought you would get a chance to maybe level up your shot a bit more or get enough points to earn an extra life before this fight but here you are. Facing a huge battle tank with seven different mounted guns, all blazing ammunition towards you. Buckle up and get to it!
[[Shoot|screen11]]
[[Dodge|screen11]]</p></center><center><p>BOOM!
Your first ship is destroyed when the battle tank surprises you with an attack from behind. Two more ships and then it's game over. Focus!
[[Shoot|screen12]]
[[Dodge|screen12]]</p></center><center><p>You drop your newly accuired smart bomb and once again clear the screen from enemy projectiles. This time the bomb also deals a considerable amount of damage to the mid boss. You use the cleared screen to your advantage and move on up to the weakest point of the whole tank: the main gun mount. After a few seconds of laser fire the top of the tank explodes. Its blind.
[[Shoot|screen13]]
[[Dodge|screen13]]</p></center><center><p>It's like stealing candy from a baby at this point. The battle tank is furiously shooting at all directions hoping to get a hit but you skillfully dodge all of its efforts and finish the tank off within a matter of seconds. You get awarded with a powerup making your regular shot twice as powerful.
The smaller enemies attack without mercy and the whole screen is filled with enemies and bullet patterns in all shapes and colors.
[[Shoot|screen14]]
[[Dodge|screen14]]</p></center><center><p>"WARNING!! WARNING!! HUGE BATTLE SHIP IS APPROACHING"
Already? That was fast. Well, there's no time to lose!
[[Focus|screen15]]
[[Pause the game for a quick bathroom break|break]]</p></center><center><p>The boss is an armored train filled with turrets. Its biggest weakness is of course its limited movement, but it still poses a real threat since the turrets are energic and the armor of the train is hard to penetrate.
[[Shoot|screen16]]
[[Dodge|screen16]]</p></center><center><p>
< GAME PAUSED >
[[Unpause|screen15]]</p></center><center><p>You shoot and dodge and shoot and dodge. Minutes goes by and you're beginning to doubt if you can do this. The train shows no sign of weakness and your shots seem to just bounce of the armor like rubber balls.
[[Try to shoot the rails in front of the train|screen17]]
[[Drop smart bomb|nothing]]</p></center><center><p>The rails are obliterated by your attack, causing the train to derail and fall off a nearby cliff. A few seconds of silence goes by and then the whole screen goes bright yellow from the explosion of the train hitting the ground at the bottom of the gorge. You have beaten stage 2!
[[Stage 3|screen18]]</p></center><center><p>That did nothing. Wow. What a waste!
[[Try to shoot the rails in front of the train|screen17]]</p></center><center><p>And so here we are.
The last stage of Fire Garden 39.
It is naturally the most difficult stage with tons of enemies shooting everything they've got at you. Your nerves are really showing as you barely dodge the attacks but you are somehow pulling through. Steadily shooting and grazefully dodging your way through the first portion of the stage.
[[Shoot|screen19]]
[[Dodge|screen19]]</p></center><center><p>There! An extra life! You just need to destroy the building sealing it into the mountain side. As you fly up to the building you notice a swarm of tiny enemies approaching fast. They are easy to kill, but so many. For a second you lose your temper and furiously shoot down every last one of the irritating enemies. And your chance to an extra life is gone. The mountain scrolls out of the screen as you try to reach it and instead you encounter the mid boss. A huge ship, five times the size of yours.
[[Shoot|screen20]]
[[Dodge|screen20]]</p></center><center><p>The ship fires homing missiles as it shoots a steady laser in the middle of the screen, cutting the space you have to move around in into half. By sheer luck you manage to avoid most of the homing missiles and shoot down the remaining ones. The ship fires two more lasers restricting your space into a tiny fraction of the screen. Another homing missile attack. There's not much of a choice at this point.
[[Drop your last smart bomb|screen21]]</p></center><center><p>The screen once again clears up. The mid boss is showing signs of heavy damage from the bomb with bits falling off and a steady blinking effect. You shoot for your life and the ship soon changes formation. It knows you are about to win and it isn't planning on going down easy. In this formation, the ship shoots fire up front. A wide and lethal flame is waving back and forth on the screen.
[[Shoot|screen22]]
[[Dodge|screen22]]</p></center><center><p>The ship suddenly explodes. It turned out the fire attack wasn't entirely ready for use and some of the flames got into the main fuel tank of the ship. You can barely believe it, but are deeply greatful it went the way it did. A few more seconds and you would've been toast.
The stage continues on. Through deserts, over ruins, eventually leading you up to a snowy mountain. Here, the last boss awaits your arrival...
[[Fly up the mountain|screen23]]</p></center><center><p>"WARNING! WARNING! WA--"
The alarm glitches out and fades away. The screen is shaking. The last boss is a huge robot, embedded within the mountain making it incredibly hard to damage. It starts of worryingly easy. A few shots here and there.
[[Shoot|screen24]]
[[Dodge|screen24]]</p></center><center><p>After a minute or two of testing each other out you both begin to beef up your attacks. The stone enclosing the robot is slowly cracking up as you shoot through the immense bullet patterns from the robot's many arms.
At last the robot is out of the ground, but that doesn't make it any easier. The robot changes formation into a hovering ship of death and fires everything it's got at you.
[[Shoot|screen25]]
[[Dodge|screen25]]</p></center><center><p>BOOM!
Another life lost. The bullet patterns are just too dense to navigate successfully through. Especially with the nerves playing tricks on your dodging skills.
One more hit and it's all over for you. The boss continues to attack without pause. Your heart is beating really hard and the music is extremely hectic. Suddenly, a small hatch opens in the centre of the flying robot body. A charging sound is heard and you realize the boss is about to fire its ultimate weapon.
[[Dodge|screen26]]</p></center><center><p>A white laser as wide as two thirds of the whole screen flies right past you as you successfully dodge it with your dropped jaw and sweaty hands making you a wreck of a player. How is this even possible to beat? The charging sound begins anew. This is it. Your one and only chance to end this is to make the laser go off inside of the boss. You need to get up real close and shoot the core with your own laser.
[[Shoot the core|screen27]]</p></center><center><p>With an impressive eardeafening implosion the boss tears apart right before your eyes. There's nothing left of the once so formidable opponent but a fine metal dust covering the mountain top. The music comes to an end as your ship flies away in the sunset.
[[THE END|Shoot The Core]]</p></center>
