Developer: UPL Publisher: Kawakus Platform: Arcade (UPL Ninja-Kid II Hardware) Released internationally: December 1987 This game has hidden developer credits. This game has unused graphics. This game has debugging material.

An albino xenomorph-like creature must swim in the air and shoot bubbles at his enemies to accomplish...something. Featuring a cameo by Robo-Bub!

Debugging Function

Flip Dip Switch 2:8 (Service Mode) and Dip Switch 2:7 (The first "unused" dip switch in MAME's menu). Then, exit the service menu. This disables the game's object collision detection...which, unfortunately, also includes power-ups.

Hidden Credits

There are two sets of credits hidden in the game's object graphics ROM. They're not really needed, since the game does have a proper credits sequence, but there you go.

The first set is at the start of the ROM, a short but incomplete list of staff members.

The second set, found near the end of the ROM, consists of two names written in Kanji: Shichijo Takashige, and Hayashi Takashi.
