From Wikipedia: Bangai-O in its Dreamcast Western release, or Bakuretsu Muteki Bangaioh (爆裂無敵 バンガイオー, Bakuretsu Muteki Bangaiō, Explosive, Invincible Bangaioh) in the Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast Japanese versions, is a multi-directional shooter video game developed by Treasure. It was first released on the Nintendo 64 only in Japan with a limited 10,000 unit production run. It was converted to the Dreamcast a few months later, and this version was eventually released worldwide; The latter version is much more widely available, and thus better known.

The missile special attack splits between multiple targets; the laser special attack points towards a target after bouncing.

The number of explosions taking place at any given time is shown at the top of the screen and determines how much the special attack meter recharges and what type of fruit is left behind by destroyed enemies.
