Straight Laser
Though it's a very standard weapon, the Straight Laser is one of the most useful. It fires forward at a very fast rate, and is fairly wide and powerful.
Needle Laser
Though note nearly as powerful as the Straight Laser, the Needle Laser will fire off a whole slew of tiny beams that will home in on enemies. Very usefil for crowded areas.
Wind Laser
This will shoot four lasers that cover the whole length of the screen. While they are long and auto-aim to a certain extent, it isn't very powerful. Plus you don't get it until the last level.
Round Laser
Actually the most handy weapon in the game, the Round Laser shoots two sets of bullets out of the ship, that rotate forward when you hold the fire button. Let the fire button go, and they'll rotate back. Required in some areas to take out many enemies.
Morning Star
A circle of energy will encircle the Axelay and grow bigger and bigger. Let go, and the energy bullets will fire outward. It's powerful, though a bit awkward to use.
Macro Missile
These missiles simply fire pretty much straight forward from the Axelay. Simply but still effective.
Explosion Bomb
Explosion bombs will drop a little bit before flying forward. When they hot, there's a nice powerful explosion (hence the name) that does plenty of damage.
Cluster Bomb
Cluster bombs drop straight down on a target, making it extremely useful for anything right on the ground.
