I could have beaten this boss a lot faster.
What follows is a white-knuckle race against raising water. I could SWEAR the water raises faster.. and maybe it does in America.
There's so many regional differences Cutting Room Floor gave them a page.

Now, I'm wondering if I want to keep Alucard or Grant.
Decisions, decisions.
I'm grinding. The ONLY item I started with is the flame whip. I don't have levels or anything besides that.
I'm having a legit perfect run, no cheating. Of course, this is like my 7th or 8th complete run of it.
I came ONE HIT away from dying to Frankenstein (or "The Creature").
And holy FUCK are the bosses spongy. I'm talking like 100+ shots spongy.
It's called Gradius 2, but if you think of it as Life Force 2, you'll have a better idea of what to expect. Gradius was subdued, with low-key set-pieces and repetitive mini-bosses.
Gradius 2 is a sweeping space epic with grand bosses.
This might be better than Life Force. Wow.
You'll all forgive me if I don't give blow-by-blow updates on the Konami shmups. We all know I'm going to drool all over them.
I'm two levels into a perfect run on Life Force, which I first discovered at the age of 19 on Virtual Console. I absolutely love this game. LOVE IT!

OH COME ON!!
I've set up a randomizer to choose my next Konami game. I just want to do retro games. In that mood, you know.
And that craving was rewarded.
