Damn Luddite, very nice, you are making quick progress! Congrats on your first 1cc run as well!

I guess I can upload my best score now :3

Doh!!! So he comes and pulls out some dusty old scores...

I'll be back.

I'm just buying time so I can finish up what I'm playing before I join ya on this excellent game. At this rate it won't be much time though, you are kicking this game's ass!

Well, this is where I currently stand. I have progressed quite slowly with my record breaking lately and I'm a bit worried if I'm going to stall somewhere here. Today was a good day though: After few days of a break from the game I hit this record here. And also today for the first time I got over 100 million points (1up) before the 3rd level. I think I need to rethink some of my patterns to really start scoring instead of only surviving.

Oh man, these scores are getting me hyped to play some black label soon. Dunpeal, my score was for 1.5

Geeze dude, if you aren't even "scoring" yet, then I really need to step my game up! Very nice improvement!

Futari BL Orig often gets lumped into the "easy 1cc" category, but when pushed for score, I think it is one of the hardest shooters out there. I love the fluidity of it, every inch you push it, it just gets that much harder, and the ceiling is outrageous. Every time I max out my counter and everything goes crazy, I start freaking out.

Both scores updated! Can't wait to see what you have in store for BL Panda. I've been working on this game again myself, trying to settle with what mode I want to focus on. Seems like BL would be a good choice!

This seems a little more intense, gotta learn new cash out spots.

Yeah, BL Maniac is weird. In the other "cash-out" modes, My main focus is getting enough counter to make the cash-out worth it, but in this one, I tend to get to max counter at a bad point, and waste amber before a good cash-out point.

Feels more like God-lite than Maniac, since both modes work so similarly. Just kinda wish Maniac let me build the counter as high. Still a fun mode though.

Board is updated! Nice improvements man. How close was the clear on that Orig run?

Right after the mid boss dragon, I missed the 1up too. Made some nasty mistakes on stage 4. :/ Bonus is I never use bombs, so my clears are usually super clean lol.
