- Hi all, Christopher Jam again, not talking about coding for a change.
-
- I recently got around to buying myself a copy of (according to Zzap64)
- "The meanest, slickest blast'em up since Turrican II". Well, I would
- hesitate to say Rubicon's _that_ good, but its great fun, none the less.
-
- Problem is, I can't get past the watery blue sphere in level 4. I have
- several times now reached this point with 3 lives and a continue remaining,
- and have yet to destroy it before it reaches and kills me.
- I kill all the orbiters, and then start shooting it, but can never seem
- to get more than about 9 shots to hit it before it reaches me.
-
- Any advice on where to stand to hit it enough? Or is there some trick
- to getting past it?
-
- Thanx all,
-
- Christopher.
