I don't believe I saw that enemy, and he is at 10% more than I was. I guess I'm out. I'll put a fail on my post.

I have no idea, but I feel like I made it pretty far so I'm assuming I passed.

Made it...just.

The last sniper lava turret thing before the second boss popped up at the bottom of the screen and point blanked me. I was not best pleased.

I've cleared this before (mostly semi-blind), but a silly death with bombs in stock shook things up a bit. A nice breather after Sengeki Striker though!

The description of the video below by tvspels freak describes the gameplay very well.

The difficulty of the game is directly linked to how good of a button masher you are,

FAIL

Reach stage 2 and didn't get the boss, that's because I didn't use any bombs. So this is the end............

The sound doesn't work on MAME. At all. It is rather unfortunate as the soundtrack is actually okay.

Ran into terrain once because I didn't realize the game doesn't let you move further than about halfway across the screen...

Failed three times in a row, guess I'm out now. :(

Salty Cobra was a miserable FAIL. I'm pretty buttmad.
https://youtu.be/cpOf_gXYwmk non serious commentary.

Haha @HeavyViper, that was such an unlucky start. I made similarly disappointing noises when I was playing to be sure. In fact losing my last life made me ARGH out loud.

Cool game! There's something about these old-school shmups that I really enjoy but I would never consider playing them for score.
