Endings
This is the only Darius game (besides Sagaia for Sega Master System and Game Boy consoles) where there is only one final stage. As a result, Taito adopted a unique ending modality. There are five endings, each triggered by certain actions in-game:
- "Try Again" Ending: Didn't destroy Super Alloy Lantern (the player still must defeat Great Tusk).
- Average Ending: Lost 2 or more lives during the entire game.
- Good Ending: Lost 1 life during the entire game.
- Great Ending: Destroyed Full Metal Shell without losing a single life during the entire game.
- True Ending: Destroyed Hyper Great Thing without losing a single life during the entire game.
The four latter endings will never trigger unless Super Alloy Lantern is destroyed.
