Banana Blast Question

[devius]

I've been playing Tyrian for many years now and I started by playing the first demo version of the first Tyrian (only the first episode).
When I was playing that first episode the first time after I finished it I was granted the super carrot ship and banana blast (front gun) and banana blast rear (rear gun).
I never played Tyrian 2 and I swiched to Tyrian 2000 (five episodes).

Even though I have finished the game several times and in several difficulties (up to impossible), I never found the banana blast guns.

Generally I like finding the tricks in the games by myself so I didn't know about the extra difficulty settings and I had just unlocked the first Tyrian's Super Arcade Modes.
So I have searched over the internet for the guns and I found out that in the first Tyrian (three episodes and demo) you could get the super carrot by finishing the game (1/6 times or something like that) but I've never acquired it in Tyrian 2k.

So I'm asking if there is anyway to get those guns in Tyrian 2k.
Thanks and sorry for the long post.

You can get hotdog and banana blast on some Ixmucane level (with the desert, rocks and sawblades), kill an enemy carrot ship and get the powerup.

I've found the hotdog several times but never spotted the banana.

Thanks for the answer I'll try to locate it.

Ah, it may the case that only actually gives oyu the hotdog, not the banana.

[devius]

It is Sawblades that has hot dog gun when you kill the last carrot.
But the bananas has to be somewhere in the game. I can't believe they weren't included in the latest tyrian.

SuperCarrot can be purchased before Mistakes, otherwise, I think it's only awarded for Super Arcade

Well, I had an occasion that when I was playing Full Game or Arcade normally, and I replayed Episode one during gameplay, my ship suddenly turned into a Super Carrot and I had the Banana Blast (Both Front and Rear) all the way from Level 1.

[Weep]

Like you said, I believe there's a random chance upon completing episode 5 that your ship and weapons will be converted to the banana set. It's happened to me.

Very annoying, when I have the über set of equipment.

Of course, there's also the Foodship 9 Super Arcade Mode...

It just happened to me again. I was playing Full Game mode, and I had the following weapons I mainly used throughout the entire game: Mega Pulse, Rear Mega Pulse, Plasma Storm for the sidekicks. I replaced the right sidekick at the final level of Episode 3 with the BattleShip Class FireBomb. But as I went to replay Episode 1, I found to have both Mega Pulses Replaced by the Banana Blast! And I used the Prototype Stalker-C, which became the SuperCarrot!

It be the work of Zinglon

I've found that if you buy the super carrot in the game and finish the game with it, then back at the first level again you'll have the front and back banana weapons. Well that's worked most times for me.
