^Hey, can you lay it out in the format from the OP, makes it MUCH easier to copy / paste - thanks.

lol, I'll change it. I got so used to typing like that for coding programs.

Nice scores across the board there. Well done!

Thank you!!
I've been trying to play through on the hardest difficulty pretty recently. I typically wind up losing the default 4 credits in Area 6, but managed to get to the first sliver of Area 7 a few times.

That mini boss at the start of Area 3 becomes a real pain in the ass after a while.

Not sure if you were referring to my old post but...

I keep getting in a 890k + rut : / That stupid mini boss in stage 3 is cheesing me off. It's not even difficult. I keep getting all twitchy with those long yellow beams it shoots.

O.O I didn't see that post until you showed it to me. I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE!!

There's this part I really hate in Area 6 where you get attacked by fleets of ships shooting those yellow beams, whilst worrying about ground turrets at the same time.

Again, great scores on the Saturn port.

Submitting a pair --



876,041 -- ExedExes -- Stage 3 -- Taito Legends 2 on PC

Did NOT lose a life in the first two stages. A first! Had full gun therefore extra pickups were POINTS! You all talk about the bosses in stages 4-6, I've got my hands full with this badass on Stage 3! Sadly, I can't get rid of the spider ship preceding it quickly enough, I think that would tack around another 100K (and possibly EXTEND) to that score.

I was thinking, either I'm getting old and rusty in my shmup skills, and I know the scores are all legit on the Normal difficulty, but how can you all do better on the Saturn?

To test this, I also played it in MAME. Not much difference, the 1pt scoring is not there as you can see, and the screen is a bit less smushed for a near-TATE experience.



840,900 -- ExedExes -- Stage 3 -- MAME

and I did not even reach the boss that time. Perhaps it's easier to score, or my lock-ons were better?

If I had a SAT copy I'm willing to wager I'd be over 1 mil and getting further too. You kids

Also, on the times I can reach Stage 3, the music is freaking amazing.
