Notes:
My first ever ripping a Video System game, and
a uPD7759 chip.

This ones' doesn't ripped yet on the site,
alongside with the PC Engine version. So I
decided to rip this one, since I didn't
ripped any legitimate Video System games in
my whole life as a VGM ripper.

Basically Gradius-like shmup game, that
consists of 4 stages to save these 3
Kitashirakawas, which is Kotomi, Taro (king),
and Komomo (princess).

Kotomi later appears in Sonic Wings / Aero
Fighters 3 and Special as a hidden character,
alongside with "the Man" from Spinal Breakers.

I think Unknown 4 on the CD release, is
just a duplicate Stage 7. Who knows.

I'm surprised that some of the songs here like
stages 1, 3, 5, 9, and boss BGMs 2, 5, 7's
notes are dissapearing for a few minutes.
Some of the bass or drums on the tracks i've
mentioned, dissapeared or gets weird and cuts
off the channel that the game itself has a
broken sound driver to it, making it almost
impossible to log.

Now I can see why this game doesn't yet ripped
on this site few years prior.

Track names are taken from "RABIO LEPUS &
TURBO FORCE VIDEO SYSTEM ARCADE SOUND DIGITAL
COLLECTION Vol.2 [CLRC-10020]"
