YMMV / Parasite Strike

• Awesome Music: The intro theme is very, very catchy.
• Goddamned Bats:
  • Turrets. They are positioned in very awkward ways, forcing you to shoot backwards to hit a huge number of them. Then they fire a very fast shot quite often, and getting hit means losing your score (especially in stage 3 where you pretty much can't get hit at all for Platinum).
  • The red fighter jets. They have more health than a regular jet, and on harder levels their shots are freaking fast.
• That One Attack:
  • The Secret Weapon has three attack, not counting Collision Damage. The first is an aimed laser, which is easy to avoid. The second is its fire Breath Weapon, which is easy to avoid by staying above its head level. The third has it spit out temporary pink fire clouds that spray lots of painful bullets in all directions, and more than one can be on the screen at a time.
  • The alien leader. Its breath weapon, while not blockable, is easy to avoid (move up), has a rock throwing move (slow and easy to evade), summons yellow fireballs that spray in a spiral (last for a very short time, less than the pink fire), and the last is the pink fire clouds mentioned above.
