Observed cosmetic differences so far:

* Intro: picture of man ("No, go to star") is flipped horizontally versus ver.b
* "game over" image has different palette
* Intro: spinning "Space Bomber" at bottom right is silver instead of red.
* Lives counter are static images and not animated (ver.b presumably reuses a zoomed player sprite with move left/right animation frames)
* It's missing the intro between worlds and on all clear ("You stinking aliens betrayed us!", clearly developed by rehashing images from the intro in ver.b to add an element of story)
* It's missing the 'rankings' on all clear ("CAT-2" etc.)

Gameplay (based on a random level sampling):

* The third wave of bullets from boss 2-4 are bigger than in ver.b. Large circles instead of the classic-Psikyo ovals
* Bullets from flying saucers on 1-4 are bigger than ver.b also
* More cases like this

I'm sure the rest is bug-fixes and gameplay tweaks. Unlike Lode Runner - The Dig Fight it's not a complete overhaul though.
