Weapon Types
- Red: The Counter-air Laser, a powerful red and blue double transverse wave. This also fires its first-level equivalents, a red and a blue arrow-shaped laser shot, from the Bits, should the player have any.
- Blue: The Rebound Laser, three long, thin, cyan lasers, one straight, two at 45° angles from the Force, that reflect off walls.
- Yellow: The Counter-ground Laser, two long fireball chains released vertically from the Force that slink along the ceiling and floor.
- Green: The Spread Laser, which fires a spread arc of eight orange fireballs.
- Gray: The Shotgun Bomb, which launches a shell that explodes powerfully a short ways from the R-9.

Famous quotes containing the words weapon and/or types:
“The aim of poetry, it appears, is to fill the mind with lofty thoughts—not to give it joy, but to give it a grand and somewhat gaudy sense of virtue. The essay is a weapon against the degenerate tendencies of the age. The novel, properly conceived, is a means of uplifting the spirit; its aim is to inspire, not merely to satisfy the low curiosity of man in man.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“As for types like my own, obscurely motivated by the conviction that our existence was worthless if we didn’t make a turning point of it, we were assigned to the humanities, to poetry, philosophy, painting—the nursery games of humankind, which had to be left behind when the age of science began. The humanities would be called upon to choose a wallpaper for the crypt, as the end drew near.”
—Saul Bellow (b. 1915)
