Cactus 2.0!
This article has just been started and needs the article basics added.
Help us out and add them.

A port of the arcade game to the Sharp X68000. It's often considered to be the definitive version of the game (at least officially), not only featuring upgraded graphics but also a brand new excellent OST created by Hideya Nagata and none other than the legendary Yuzo Koshiro.

Other Developer Notes

Cacti may speak Japanese, but do they speak it well?
...But does it make sense?
The translations on this page need to be proofread. If you are fluent enough in this language, please make any corrections necessary!

At BOSC.X 0xA0B7 there is another unused string, this time being a congratulatory line of sorts.
