Ristar the Shooting Star (US Ver.) World 4: Planet Sonata

Also called Planet Neuos, Planet Sonata is a wonderful planet where music reigns supreme. Act 1 has Ristar go through a futuristic city, where he must carry metronomes and throw them at songbirds. Each one of them add a bit more to the level's song. Make Ristar stand still for a while and you'll see that he loves this game's music, too! Help the last songbird and the music will change to prepare for what happens when all of the songbirds' music is put together. Forgot the bonus Star Handle again, so I had to backtrack again. If you just wait before reaching the Act boss, the preparation music will eventually play "Mary Had a Little Lamb". Now when you actually get to the boss, all of the birds music come together to make an awesome song, to which the boss tunes his attacks with. ---------- Act 2 has Ristar inside some kind of musical factory, and it's also brimming with fantastic music, some of it being a remix of the completed song of Act 1. You can even mess with some of the instruments here to produce some kind of sound. Really, this game has great music, and Planet 4 has excellent use of it. ---------- Even the next boss stage, fighting Awaueck, makes use of music too. There's this little browning bird that sings wonderfully on stage, but Awaueck thinks it's awful. He knocks the bird of his perch and the HE starts singing, which turns out to be really, really bad. So horrible that the boss music ITSELF gets distorted like crazy. In this case I can understand Ristar looking pissed. First, knock Awaueck off of the other bird's perch, then try to hit him as much as you can before he tries to reclaim to perch. Eventually, he is defeated, and the little bird gets to sing again. Looks like the applause is both for him and Ristar for saving the concert. Now Ristar make his exit, Stage Up, to the next planet. He is expected to make an encore when he returns to Sonata/Nueos. ---------- Planet Sonata/Neuos in the Game Gear Version:    • Ristar the Shooting Star (JP Game Gear Ver...
