Atomic Punk (Arcade)/Stage Differences

This is a sub-page of Atomic Punk (Arcade).
This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
To do: Add the last two worlds |
A lot of the stages were modified for the game's western release. In particular, a new enemy (actually repurposed from the final boss), who will be called Robo-Bomber, was added.
Special thanks to Ragey for the level maps!

- The two soft blocks at the far sides of the stage were moved forward, thus closing in the stage a lot better. This stage also marks the introduction of Robo-Bomber (the green bomber). It certainly won't be the last we see of him.
