''Salamander'' is the 1986 sequel to the 1985 game, ''[[Gradius]]'' (before Konami produced a more direct sequel, ''Gradius II'' in 1988, with ''Salamander'' being relegated to spin-off). It is a one or two player cooperative spaceship shooter, in which player one controls the Vic Viper from Gradius, and player two controls (the debuting) Lord British. Two-player games can be started from the main menu or by pressing {{Start}} on a second control pad at any point during gameplay. While gameplay is broadly similar to ''Gradius'', ''Salamander'' has a different and more traditional power-up system, in which players simply pick up upgrades left behind by destroyed enemies, rather than collecting glowing orbs to increment through a pre-determined list. It also differs from ''Gradius'' by swapping between horizontal and vertical scrolling stages.

The ship is destroyed if it takes a single hit from an enemy or collides with terrain. All power-ups are lost when the ship is destroyed, but options can be collected again. It respawns instantly if the player has extra lives remaining; otherwise, the game ends.

After finishing the game, it loops from the beginning at a higher difficulty. There are six difficulty levels (Saturn Easy, Easy, Normal, Difficult, Very Difficult, and Saturn Difficult). There are also options to toggle the slowdown from the arcade original ("Wait Control") or to stretch the image to fit the width of the screen.

''Life Force'' is an altered version of ''Salamander'' released in the following year. While the 1986 ''Salamanader'' was released under this name in North America, this 1987 Japanese version adds to the changes and re-introduces the ''Gradius''-style power-up system. Much of the visuals and audio was been replaced, although level layouts are broadly identical.
+
''Life Force'' is a modified version of ''Salamander'' that extends the premise of the first stage, where the Vic Viper flies into a massive alien life form, to the entire game. Some of the artwork, particularly the space stages and the mechanical enemies, was redrawn or recolored to maintain consistency with the new organic setting of the plot, though the stage layouts remain largely the same. The power-up system from ''Gradius'' was also re-introduced. As before, the game can be played by one or two players simultaneously, with player one controlling the Vic Viper and player two controlling Lord British. Two-player games can be started from the main menu or by pressing {{Start}} on a second control pad at any point during gameplay.

Salamander Deluxe Pack Plus (沙羅曼蛇 ＤＥＬＵＸＥ ＰＡＣＫ ＰＬＵＳ) is a compilation of the three Salamander games, all developed and published by Konami as spin-offs of the Gradius franchise. The compilation never left Japan. The games are identical to their arcade counterparts, bar a few touch-ups.

Games included

  • Salamander
  • Life Force
  • Salamander 2

Story

Salamander

Latis is a planet covered by water. A prophecy tells of a giant dragon that will travel from thousands of light years away and swallow the heavens and the earth.

The Salamander Army of the Bacterian Cluster has invaded the planet, and the Latis army is helpless to resist. The Prince of Latis has entered the battle in his starfighter, Lord British, but he was overwhelmed and asked from help from the planet Gradius, which is said to have defeated forces from the Bacterian Cluster before.

Life Force

Two years after the war with the Bacterian Cluster ended, peace has been restored, but planet Gradius is now facing an unprecedented crisis as a super organism called "Life Force" has appeared in outer space. It is an enormous life form that absorbs everything it touches and grows continuously. The Vic Viper must destroy it before it consumes planet Gradius as well.

Salamander 2

Gameplay

Salamander

Salamander is the 1986 sequel to the 1985 game, Gradius (before Konami produced a more direct sequel, Gradius II in 1988, thus relegating Salamander to a spin-off). It is a one or two player cooperative spaceship shooter, in which player one controls the Vic Viper from Gradius, and player two controls (the debuting) Lord British. Two-player games can be started from the main menu or by pressing  START  on a second control pad at any point during gameplay. While gameplay is broadly similar to Gradius, Salamander has a different and more traditional power-up system, in which players simply pick up upgrades left behind by destroyed enemies, rather than collecting glowing orbs to increment through a predetermined list. It also differs from Gradius by swapping between horizontal and vertical scrolling stages.

The ship can be moved in any direction using the D-Pad. It shoots with B (or Y for rapid-fire). The main weapon can be upgraded to the Laser, which shoots long lasers that pierce through multiple targets, or the Ripple Laser, which shoots ring-shaped projectiles that expand as they travel to cover a large area. Players can obtain an upgrade that augments its main weapon with missiles that are fired in volleys above and below the ship. The ship can also collect up to four options (called "multiples") that follow it and replicate its fire. Multiples spread out when the ship moves away from them, allowing them to cover a wide area. Power-ups are collected as items that are sometimes dropped when enemies are destroyed.

The ship is destroyed if it takes a single hit from an enemy or collides with terrain. All power-ups are lost when the ship is destroyed, but multiples can be collected again. It respawns instantly if the player has extra lives remaining; otherwise, the game ends. There are no continues and no extends, but players can set the number of starting lives from the options (between 2 and 7) before starting the game. After finishing the game, it loops from the beginning at a higher difficulty. There are six difficulty levels (Saturn Easy, Easy, Normal, Difficult, Very Difficult, and Saturn Difficult). There are also options to toggle the slowdown from the arcade original ("Wait Control") or to stretch the image to fit the width of the screen.

The final boss is the Zelos Force, a big red orb that the players must destroy before it leaves. After it is destroyed, the rest of the stage is an escape sequence.

Life Force

Life Force is a modified version of Salamander that extends the premise of the first stage, where the Vic Viper flies into a massive alien life form, to the entire game. Some of the artwork, particularly the space stages and the mechanical enemies, was redrawn or recolored to maintain consistency with the new organic setting of the plot, though the stage layouts remain largely the same. The power-up system from Gradius was also re-introduced. As before, the game can be played by one or two players simultaneously, with player one controlling the Vic Viper and player two controlling Lord British. Two-player games can be started from the main menu or by pressing  START  on a second control pad at any point during gameplay.

The ship can be moved in any direction using the D-Pad. It shoots with B (or Y for rapid-fire). The main weapon can be upgraded to the Laser, which shoots long lasers that pierce through multiple targets, or the Pulse Laser, which shoots ring-shaped projectiles that expand as they travel to cover a large area. Players can obtain an upgrade that augments its main weapon with missiles that are fired in volleys above and below the ship. The ship can also collect up to four options (called "multiples") that follow it and replicate its fire. Multiples spread out when the ship moves away from them, allowing them to cover a wide area.

Power-ups are chosen by collecting glowing green capsules, which increments the power meter, a list of power-ups at the bottom of the screen, by one position. When the desired power-up is highlighted, the player can choose it with A or X (which also returns the power meter to its initial state where no power-up is highlighted). The list of power-ups is in a different order for each player.

The ship is destroyed if it takes a single hit from an enemy or collides with terrain. All power-ups are lost when the ship is destroyed, but multiples can be collected again. It respawns instantly if the player has extra lives remaining; otherwise, the game ends. There are no continues, but extends are given at 100,000 points and every 300,000 points after that, and players can set the number of starting lives from the options (between 3 and 6) before starting the game. After finishing the game, it loops from the beginning at a higher difficulty. There are six difficulty levels (Saturn Easy, Easy, Normal, Difficult, Very Difficult, and Saturn Difficult). There are also options to toggle the slowdown from the arcade original ("Wait Control") or to stretch the image to fit the width of the screen.

Items

Items are dropped by reddish-colored enemies when they are destroyed or when an entire wave of enemies is destroyed.

Life Force Saturn, Power-Up.png
 Power Up

  • Speed Up: Increases the movement speed of the ship, up to 5 levels.
  • Missile: Allows the ship to fire volleys of missiles concurrently with its main weapon.
  • Pulse: Changes the main weapon to ring-shaped projectiles that expand as they travel.
  • Laser: Changes the main weapon to long, piercing lasers.
