The first half of the latter's fight revolves entirely around summoning waves of Ghost enemies. The sheer amount of them per summon and the fact it's 16 waves make this a grueling test of endurance.

You play as the titular Captain Flinthook, bravest buccaneer in the Mermaidon Galaxy, and former Keeper of the Galactic Lighthouse. For no apparent reason, the entire planetoid said Lighthouse was on has been completely destroyed, scattering the other Keepers across the cosmos and rendering the spaceways completely unsafe for anyone except other than skilled pirates. Worse, the notorious [[NebulousEvilOrganization Cluster Clan]] has gotten word of it, and the three captains of the piratical navy have captured three of them in hopes of using their powers for their own gain. It's up to Flinthook to save the other Keepers and bring about a new golden age of space sail-but who's this [[WizardsFromOuterSpace strange wizard]] who seems to dog him every step of the way?

Flinthook can ride his trademark giant anchor to board ships with no protective equipment, and some of the graphical flairs and designs imply that there is sometimes no glass in the ship windows.

''Flinthook'' revolves around two mechanics, namely the [[BulletTime Chronobelt]] and the [[GrapplingHook Hookshot]]; the former allows Flinthook to more easily dodge the regular BulletHell the Cluster Clan brings to bear, and to pass strange chrono-beams the various ships of the Clan have installed to block any would-be boarder's attempt to take their ships. The other is how Flinthook quickly travels around said ships, using various grapple rings, and how he breaks the BubbleShield of pirates rendered otherwise invincible.
