DUX

Since this type of material proved unstable, nobody except the player seemed brave enough to fly the space ship constructed from it.

The player's job is to lead the ship through a series of horizontal levels against the Spiritual Spacers "to reach the obvious." The player's ship has a standard laser shot that can be upgraded or changed for x-ray and bounce shots, which are very similar to the weapons in R-Type.

The player also has a pod that protects them from enemy bullets and that can be launched as an offensive weapon in a move called "dash." Keeping the fire button pressed will launch a more powerful hyper shot.

To score points, the player can destroy chains of enemies in quick succession or soak up chains of bullets.

Hyper Soaking makes the player invulnerable to bullets, but drains the Obvious Energy gauge if not enough bullets are soaked in or new energy orbs are picked up.

The player wins the game if they manage to beat all the bosses at the end of each level.

If they are hit by a bullet or collide with their surroundings, a life is lost.

After all lives and continues are depleted, the game is over.

DUX for Sega Dreamcast is currently worth €50.00 loose, €25.43 complete in box, and €48.12 factory sealed. Prices are based on real sales and update regularly on Gamevaro.

DUX has a steady sales history on the tracked marketplaces, meaning it trades hands regularly and isn't considered particularly rare.

Loose means cartridge or disc only, CIB (complete in box) includes the original box and manual, and sealed means factory-sealed and never opened. For DUX, loose is €50.00 and CIB is €25.43 — CIB commands a premium because original boxes and manuals are fragile and often don't survive.
