You beat the 4th boss w/no bombs! That's an epic achievement itself, I bomb him multiple times and still usually die at least once.

Nice job, Brad!

As for me, i'm completely regressing right now, went from feeling on top of the world to just yukking it up. I'll get another hour on Saturday and then i'm prob done - too many things coming up and won't have time to game.

No by the time I beat him I was out of bombs haha

[ChrisHaha2049]

Very small improvement. But it's into the next million, and was about my best possible stage 1.
This may be my plateau... I've been trying not to bomb so much, but don't seem to be getting any better. If I try doing anything different, I just die in stupid places. Getting worse. Very frustrating. I need to take a break for a few days. Give it another go, and hopefully it'll be fun again. Can't expect to get good at any shmup in just a month's time anyway...

can't hit 10M... but consistently hitting 7-9M so I at least feel solid right now.

I'm still not totally comfortable using Type C (Blue) since I find him so slow. In this run I actually lost a life on Stage 2 in fact. But I'm familiar enough with Stages 1-4 to be doing fairly well trying a new ship. And damn. If I hadn't lost that life so early on, imagine how much I could have upped even this score!

A compromise; can you grade the posted scores?

Anyone playing on a Saturn had already failed the class

Did you make them all quit their majors.
