Venom: Difference between revisions

The planet {{s|lylatwiki|Venom}} first appeared in ''[[lylatwiki:Star Fox (game)|Star Fox]]'' (''Starwing'' in the PAL region) and has appeared in numerous ''Star Fox'' titles since; however, this stage is based on its appearance as the last level of ''{{s|lylatwiki|Star Fox 64}}'' (''Lylat Wars'' in the PAL region), and is where the final boss, {{s|lylatwiki|Andross}}, is fought. In the ''Star Fox'' games, Venom is a barren, desolate planet full of steep cliffs and deep chasms of rock that the [[lylatwiki:Star Fox (team)|Star Fox team]] must maneuver through to reach Andross, who was exhiled to the deadly planet due to his crimes against {{s|lylatwiki|Corneria}}. However, unlike as seen in this stage, Venom does not have volcanic activity.

In ''Star Fox 64'', Star Fox encountered various dangers on Venom, such as: holes in the cliffsides and in the ground where enemy aircraft emerged to attack; giant, jagged rocks that emerged from the ground as soon as they got close; and a barrage of stone pillars that appeared to block their path. In the background of this stage can be seen references to the aforementioned obstacles.

The {{s|lylatwiki|Great Fox}}, Star Fox's mobile headquarters, acts as the main platform of the stage; however, at no point in ''Star Fox 64'' does the Great Fox fly over Venom's surface. Also in this stage are {{s|lylatwiki|Arwing}} and {{s|lylatwiki|Wolfen}}, flown by Star Fox and Star Wolf, respectively, that occasionally appear to act as small platforms that fly alongside the Great Fox. All three aircraft are based on their appearances in ''Star Fox 64'' and the Arwings apparently have one {{s|lylatwiki|Laser Upgrade}} as they fire two lasers at once as opposed to the standard one.
