There are a bizarre amount of overlapping tracks between this game and Bio-Ship Paladin. They were both released in 1990 so it’s possible that both games were developed simultaneously and the composer just ended sharing compositions for both of them. The sound font in Vandyke is different so the old tracks have a different flavor to them. Among the new tracks I’d say I like the ones used for Stages 2 & 5 and Stage 6 the best because they feel just as chaotic as they are epic.
