Shmup of the Month Club 2013 (Giga Wing)

Thanks! This game is really fun. The bosses are tricky since their bullets are so fast. I guess that's why they call it rapid hero, the fast bullets and the speed with which the enemy formations fly in.

Best way to deal with the Stage 3 boss -- normal first attack is not too bad to avoid, stay off to one side after shooting a bit, when he moves back and takes out the big central gun, use a bomb and shoot, and do the same everytime. Only took 2 bombs at full power. Made it to what I believe was the Stage 4 miniboss.

I played some this week but no better score. Anyone making much progress or approaching the later levels?

I got to stage 5. Stage 4 isn't that bad, but the point leading up to the boss will have you use a few bombs, but the boss has an easier pattern than stage 3.

You know how August is the 'Month off due to annual shmups.org competition'?

That...doesn't appear to be happening at the minute, does it? Should we have a ringer shmup to fill in for August?

First I've heard of this... is it going on at all this year? We can definitely put Shienryuu up next month if you guys want, or even Raiden IV which should be rather easy to acquire on short notice.

I have both, so would be fine either way.

What? They aren't having it? That seems rather odd.....
