Title -  Last Hope Pink Bullets Edition   (ラスト ホップ Pink Bullets)

 

Maker - NG:Dev.Team   Catalogue No. - None

 

Type - 2D Horizontal Shooting Action

 

 

An all new version of Last Hope produced for us Dreamcast players who though that the Neo Geo original conversion was way too hard, which is was.  This new version released in September 2009 now features pink bullets (hence the new game title) making it far easier to see the enemies' projectiles.  The overall difficulty level has also been lowered finally making this an enjoyable shooter rather than a session of frustration.  There are also more differences between this version of Last Hope and the original.  Here's the official list as seen on NG:Dev. Team's home page.

Pink Bullets specific Features

* Six credits and instant respawn during one credit
* Higher player ship speed from beginning
* Players ship does permanently equip the Rotary Protection Unit
* Protection unit itself can destroy enemies
* Five difficulty settings
* Overall less hard difficulty
* Altered stage color theme for higher Visibility
* Advanced scoring system, with beam chaining multiplier/combo meter
* Pink enemy bullets

Not too bad for an improvement, don't you think?
