Blue "Lumen" Butterfly Easter Egg in Mighty Gunvolt! (UPDATED)

It's been a while since I last updated this blog, but I just had to share this awesome little easter egg I found out about in Mighty Gunvolt! In the "Train" stage, around the mid-way point, there's a room with one levitating enemy in the upper-right corner and one orange soldier with a flamethrower lower to the left. After dispatching both enemies, go to the platform where the orange soldier once stood. Now stand there and press up on the d-pad/circle-pad. Surprise! A blue "Lumen" butterfly item will appear in the right corner of the room! Touching this item will grant you a whopping 10,000 points without applying multipliers!

Pretty cool, huh? Man, stuff like this just makes my wanna scour every nook and cranny of Mighty Gunvolt to find out what other secrets lie in wait!

UPDATE: After learning about this easter egg, I decided to go through various other stages in Mighty Gunvolt to see if there were any more secrets to be found. I located a few more blue butterfly items in the process. It's my hunch that there's at least one of these items in every Mighty Gunvolt stage, similarly to the secret icons in Azure Striker Gunvolt. I haven't found them all yet, but I'll update this post as I continue to discover 'em.

-Bio Lab-
This item can be found in the 13th room, at the end of a very long hallway, where one floating enemy and a watermelon item are. You can make the butterfly appear by shooting the right wall in a specific place. Shoot along the top horizontal blue line in the "grid" background a couple times, and it'll show up.

-School-
At the beginning of the 7th room, you'll see a floating speaker enemy and a bomber enemy hiding in a trashcan. Dispatch the speaker and shoot the right wall once in the highest section. You'll get the butterfly item to appear below you.

-Tower-
This one's in a room with four warp tunnels and one soldier enemy standing on a platform. Perform a dash with Beck over the platform (not necessarily through the enemy, but over the platform) without taking a hit, and the butterfly will appear in the top-left corner of the room.


-Factory-
At the beginning of the third room, you'll see a couple destroyable crates. Get rid of the second one, position yourself where it once stood, and then press down. The item will appear to the right.
