tapping the shot button gives you a shot, holding it gives you a focused shot.
Guard can be toggled in the options, it's basically an autobomb. If you get hit, you lose a bomb and a shitload of point items, but don't die. If you bomb normally, you don't lose as many point items, you actually get some extra, you do a load of damage to the boss and get longer invincibility.
You get an extra live every 5 million points, also there's an extra live at the end of stage 3 but I'm not sure how to toggle it.
Yes there's slow mode, it's the wait option in the menu.
I think they disappear if your guard was toggled before. Destroying big enemies seems to cancel bullets.
Items start at 8x value. The value decreses the longer they take to travel to you, so if you destroy an enemy at the top of the screen while you're camping at the bottom, you'll only get 1x. There's also a counter at the upper right, it decreases when your guard is toggled by a hit and is multiplied by 100 and added to your score after each stage.
To score you need to stay close to the items, toggle hidden item chests (usually where turret enemies were before) by passing them in focus mode, and hoard lives as you get 2 million for each live left at the end of stage 5.
