This is a full play through of Mercenary Force on normal difficulty, with the good ending.
I use a force of one Mystic and three Ninjas to accomplish this. Staying near the right of the screen reduces the number of projectiles to dodge. Completing the game with a Mystic in the party grants the good ending. I put her in front because the first character is the only one you truly control, and I need her alive!
Buying Tea for $400 in stages 1, 3, 4, and 6 gives 3 HP back to all mercenaries per purchase. You can't buy Tea in stages 2 and 5, but Medicine for $180 gives the first character back 3 HP, and that's usually good enough.
If you cheat, you get the bad ending. If you play on hard difficulty, everything shoots twice as fast and bosses have twice the HP, but you also get double points. I do neither in this run.
