Just to throw something up. I should start suiciding.

first run is 2.3M ...no idea what's going on for score right now, but this game is a lot more fun than I remember my initial impression being.

I actually didn't worry too much about the first stage in Mars Matrix. The points I could potentially gain in the main part of stage 1 weren't worth the risk compared to the points I could get on the stage 1 boss, and stage 2.

This one, I have to have a good stage 1, or the chains I get in stage 2 and beyond won't matter nearly as much.

1/2 dozen runs last night, 1/2 dozen this morning. I think Hash is right, might have to suicide. Getting to 2nd boss w/3 lives and the battle just doesn't end. Granted, I should be bombing a bit more, but I really don't think it bodes well long-term if i'm bomb-spamming this early in the game.

Best so far:

Getting to stage 3 now - 3 of the last 4 runs to mid-point on stage 3, by suiciding right before stage 2 boss. I don't like the strategy, but it's working :/ Only modest score improvement so will wait to post another pic...

Bah. I watched some YouTube videos and I have way too much slowdown to post anything legit. Hopefully my 360 copy will arrive before the week's up.

I don't agree with the suicide-ing to get farther idea either, but from what I've seen, the rank gets super fierce fast if you don't.

Yeah, the 2nd boss fight is just mean if you haven't died recently before it.

There is a lot i'm still not understanding - like what determines if the chain breaks. It seems random, but there must be some rule i'm violating.

I'm discovering some secrets though - so it's interesting each run learning something new. Up to about 12.5 mil now and middle of stage 3. Stage 3 is pretty tough so far, doing a lot of bombing, but it's getting better. Hoping to reach stage 4 by this evening.

Don't die and don't let the medals leave the screen.
