Nice dude. I really like the skeletons - I wish they didn't write "This is cool" on them though, but i'd still take it over a white / grey / black any day of the week.

but THIS IS COOL!!!! anyway i was super happy because i was bummed after i bought it because i was reading that the skeleton saturn couldnt play metal slug on it and thats one of my favorite games. so it was the first game i tested and it plays perfectly, not sure if its becuase i have the standalone version of the game not the version that came bundled with the ram cart.

The Derby Stallion skeleton Saturns don't have "This is Cool" written on them. I didn't like that either, so I got a Derby Stallion version (with skeleton RAM cart!). So if you really want one, opt for the Derby Stallion Saturn. They're a bit harder to find, but they're about the same price.

Anyhoo, new score.

I was killed by the final boss and got the "bad" ending. They sure make you feel guilty.

FYI, you won't be killed if you touch the last boss' body. Only if you touch his "heart" you will die, but the rest of the body is OK. Also, the laser he shoots from his feces (I'm not kidding) will obviously kill you, but you can maneuver through the fecal matter and you'll be OK. Just don't touch the laser beam itself or the heart.

202,660 - o.pwuaioc - Stage 3 - Saturn

This is my last submission. I won't be back until July, but I'm glad I broke 200k.

Btw, for all the hate this game is getting, I really think the problem is 1cc'ing it. I went on a few times past my last death, and the later levels get really interesting and fun. This is definitely a game I'll be revisiting later when I'm not worried about getting a high score in a month.

Its definitely a 1cc game and not a score game.

At least it isn't Thunder Force though eh? Scoring in that game will put you to sleep faster than anesthesia

Edit: damn hash, I missed that update. Great work! Hit that 1cc bro!

Man, I love that game, but have no way to play it.

Mike, what's a RSG STV cart run? :?:
